Now that the NBA is over, a couple of observation: 1) Defense wins Championships. It hurts for me to admit it (I am an epic Phoneix Suns fan), but look at the last 10 NBA Champions (Celtics, Pistons, Miami, Lakers 3, Spurs 4!!!), all won with defense. Every team will go through a period of scoring drought, but defense will always be there. Makes for boring TV though, I am just thankful this year is not Spurs vs Pistons = snorefest. 2) Please don't put Kobe Byrant in the same sentence with Michael Jordan again. Jordon's team will never lead by 20+ points in a NBA final game and lose the game, never. Kobe practically gave up by second quarter of Game 6 anyway, just like what he did against the Suns in Game 7 several years ago, amazing. But hey, I don't blame Kobe for losing this series, especially when Gasol turned into Jello while Odom went DWT (Disappear Without Trace). By the way, my MVP vote for 2008 still goes to Chris Paul. 3) Sasha Vujacic, man, you are not Iverson, yo...
