The Lakers won Game 5 and the title. There was a trophy presentation on the floor, and then both teams retreated to their locker rooms -- the Lakers to spray champagne and get to know the trophy better, and the Magic to consider what went wrong. The coach, the team owner, Commissioner David Stern ... several people close to the team met with the players behind closed doors for a...

Don't know how Basketbawful and I BOTH missed this little beauty from the timeout at the end of regulation in Game 4. Thanks to a couple of anonymous commenters for bringing it to our attention. There's nothing quite like making a fool of yourself in the background of a broadcast, only to then make a COMPLETE AND UTTER fool of yourself...This brought me such joy. My favorite...

Yes, Dwight Howard doesn't have a ton of post moves, but he's only 23 years old. HE'S GOING TO GET BETTER. He's already the best rebounder and shot blocker on the planet, and he can still get 20 points a night along with that, so just because he doesnt have moves like Hakeem or Kareem (rhymes, funny) doesnt mean he's not going to be an all time great. He'...

For Dwight Howard, this is a learning experience. The Lakers teach him how far he has to go during their 99-86 title-clinching victory. Howard needs to acquire more of a Kobe killer instinct, Gregg Doyel says.

and the Orlando Magic roll over and take it like champs.
Seriously, watching this series was like watching a lucky team vs. a good team. The Lakers and whatever you make of Kobe Bryant and his scowl were the dominant team, eventhough 2 games went to overtime and the Magic won one. I keep thinking of what could have been. I know Nike and the puppets wanted a Kobe/Lebron final...

Well, that was anti-climactic. The Lakers seized control with a 16-0 run in the second quarter and the Magic never got within single digits. Lamar Odom had 16-10 off the bench, and will get paid handsomely this offseason; so too will Trevor Ariza, who had a 2nd straight game with 15 points. Both are free [...]

As expected, you couldn’t get away from Kobe Bryant yesterday. In fact, if you have any Orlando Magic fans in your life, you might wanna have them stay away from the Internet or any sports TV/radio stations for the rest of the week. The fallout from Kobe’s first “solo” NBA championship has so far revolved [...]

It was only eleven years ago when NBA teams passed on Rashard Lewis in the first round of the ’98 draft. They didn’t seem to think he had the potential to a make a major contribution to their respective teams. Nowadays, that isn’t the case. Teams are scrambling trying to find ways to keep Lewis off the ball and away from getting into his rhythm. Today, the two time All-star...
