Alley....OOPS!




Ok, so was it just me, or was yesterday one of the best days in sports, EVER!!! I mean, the real G.O.A.T Roger Federer started the day off right by taking the French Open to complete his collection. Then Tiger Woods was just being Tiger, coming from behind to take the Memorial (Its just his warm up for the U.S. Open), and then the NBA FINALS!!! Oh man! I was in sports heaven! Anyways, on to Game 2.

Not to knock Courtney Lee, but kid, you blew it. Point blank. No question about it. 2 wide open looks in crunch time, two misses. But enough ridicule on the rookie (who I am a HUGE fan of). While Game 2 was a much better game to watch than Game 1, the result was the same. Lakers 101, Magic 96. And although the game went to OT, it definitely could have been won in regulation (ahem, Kobe NOT passing to his THREE open teammates!!!). But enough of that! My players of game are Lamar Odom and Rashard Lewis. L.O. had one of the most impressive performances of his career shooting 8-9, along with 8 rebounds and 3 blocks! As many of you predicted, the series would be Adv L.A if Odom hoops and so far, so good. Rashard Lewis definitely came alive in Game 2! His 34, 11 and 7 definitely kept ORL in contention for the game. Unfortunately, the slightest mistakes by an inexperienced team cost them the game.
