NBA Finals 2009

The 2009 NBA Finals is the championship series of the 2008–09 NBA season, and the conclusion of the season's playoffs. The Eastern Conference champion Orlando Magic will face the Western Conference champion Los Angeles Lakers in a best-of-seven series.

At the beginning of the season, who believed in the Magic? Not even Ronald McDonald would have thought that they would have come this far...ESPECIALLY after they lost Jameer Nelson to a season ending injury. But here they are in the Finals, taking after Kevin Garnett and yelling out"ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE."

This is becoming quite the David vs. Goliath story. Underdogs are always fun to watch - very few think they can do it, and when their backs are against the wall, they tend to fight back hard. In the pregame interview, Dwight showed he had the right attitude.

On the other side of the spectrum, we have a one, Kobe Bryant, a man that is quite detested by players, coaches, and even Warrior fans. He's already got three rings, says that Kobe-LeBron puppet commercial, but who doesn't want a fourth? Especially since all sports analysts claim that he can't do it with the original Man of Steel- Shaq. Always great to hear him speak...

Crazy...we'll see. Maybe Pau will by your new big man? If I recall correctly, that didn't quite work out for your last year.

However, I will say this - just like the Ball Don't Lie, Stats Don't Lie either.

It's going to be hard for the Magic, no doubt to keep The Black Mamba from spitting his poison. Pietrus is changing his kicks for the matchup - think that'll change his game too?

You forgot to add in score Dwight. You have to score.

It's going to be a daunting task - no doubt. But I'm always in favor of the underdogs. SEE WARRIORS VS. MAVERICKS 2007 PLAYOFFS.


It's going to be Magical....
