(Brilliant tactician after all?)

 

After that American Idol debacle last night, I don’t know how many people had the stomach to stay up and watch Orlando vs. Cleveland, but I somehow mustered up the courage to do so. And I’m glad I did because it was a great game. Each team made big shot after big shot down the stretch. The game proved two things to me. Orlando is better than i gave them credit for and Cleveland is exactly who we thought they were. So this leads me to my next question. Do I want the Magic to win this series and go on to win the NBA title? This is a tough one for me because on the one hand I despise both Cleveland and LA. I hate all this Kobe vs. Lebron bullshit that has been going on for the past two months. Hey newsflash. Kobe has never won a championship without Shaq and LeBron has never won a game in the Finals. So you can take all this marketing bullshit and shove it up your ass. If you want to crown their ass, then crown them but I prefer guys who do their talking on the court. And on the flip side I don’t hate Orlando at all. But if the Magic do go on to win the championship there is going to be a part of me that starts anguishing over losing to them in 7 games. I could accept it when I didn’t think they were that good because I just assumed they’d lose to the Cavs and if we couldn’t beat the Magic then we would have gotten mutilated by Cleveland. But that all changes if it turns out the Magic are the best team in the league. So as you can see I’m kind of torn. I guess best case scenario is the Nuggets beat Orlando in Finals. Then it’s a win, win for everybody. Am I the only one that feels this way?
