Lakers lost =(

Congratulations to the Detroit Pistons.. They did something no other team could do this year or in fact, in the last 5 years no one could do, is beat the Lakers. Last year injuries kept LA from competing against San Antonio, and we could say the same for this year, but I have to think Detroit might've still won had LA been healthy. This Laker Dynasty, the only team that could beat them was themselves and that held true these 5 years, till the finals tonight. The Pistons simply were too overwhelming.

It was frustrating seeing the Lakers give it all they got, but it just wasn't enough to tame the mighty Detroit beast. Maybe the EAST isn't as bad as we thought. Perhaps power is starting to shift, that the EAST has adjusted by going on the defensive.

I'm glad to see Chauncey Billups get the MVP. Out of all the Detroit players, he is the one that caused us the most problems. He deserves it, I'm glad they didn't give it to Rip.

Oh and Pat.. so LA lost.. Guess what?? At least they beat the Twolves and were best in the WEST.. LOL.. =)

And now the offseason begins for the Lakers. We shall find out shortly if Malone or Payton will op out of their deals, I think they have till noon tomorrow, I believe. The Lakers need a big change. Hopefully Kobe and ShaQ stay. The rest, perhaps need to be changed. I'm not sure, all i know is I hope LA can return to the Finals eventually, and that everything with Kobe gets resolved this summer.
