Buck up little camper... there's hope. That out of the way, I can only watch the Celtics... can't watch the NBA. I'd really like the Cavs to win, mainly cuz I think Lebron is one of those rare superstars who isn't a complete asshole (yes, Kobe - I'm looking in your direction). He's compared to MJ, and I think it's apt - on and off the court. Yes, we had Jordan's gambling for a little while, and after retiring, the divorce thing... but Jordan pretty much said and did the right things while playing. Lebron, to this point, is following that example. I don't want the Lakers to win (separate post forthcoming on that). I can't get behind Orlando... dunno why - I just can't get excited about them (even if Danny's doppleganger is one of their key components). And Denver is still a bunch of thugs, no? Or have they changed their ways? I really like Chauncey Billups - but Carmelo Anthony and Kenyon Martin don't do much for me. Still... I'm not inclined to watch. I'll check the scores each morning, and will smile a bit if the Cavs win... but won't waste my time watching the games.
