The Los Angeles Lakers used its black magical powers and stole Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Why must one team be so damn good? They gobble every loose ball; make all the right passes; flop at the perfect instant.
As with every playoff series, it could easily be reversed. The Magic could very well have a 3-1 series advantage. One game-winning alley-oop by Courtney Lee (Game 2) and a few fourth-quarter free-throws (Game 4) is the difference in this extremely entertaining series.
Now, I'm not a die-hard Magic fan. But I have been rooting for them throughout the playoffs. They have so much likability. There isn't a spot on that roster where a basketball fan would point to and say, "I'm not a fan." The Lakers happen to be filled with those players.
Los Angeles represents the Yankees of the NBA. The Patriots of the hardwood. They win so much that darkness must follow.
The frustration that resides in me is too much. I must let go, and prepare for football season.
