Dagger in the Heart


Crazy Game 4 of the NBA Finals tonight. I got into my car to drive home and turned on the radio, only to hear that the score was 35-14 Lakers after the first quarter! I immediately decided that the game probably wouldn't be worth watching once I got home.

Fast forward two hours, and I decided to check in on the game: Celtics still down 20. Then, as I was only half paying attention, the Celtics somehow went on a 21-3 run! Pretty neat. I'm not really a basketball fan, but I can appreciate a good comeback.

That comeback pretty much seals the Finals in my mind. Hard to imagine the Lakers being able to recover from such an embarrassing choke job to win 3 games in a row (with 2 of them in Boston).
