I'm glad to see the Lakers and Celtics being challenged, but I did not expect Boston to lose this one. Even though Detroit was in control most of the game, the Celtics blew it in the final 2 minutes.
The Lakers had no business allowing themselves to get into a 20-point hole and better not let it happen again. I don't understand why so many people are sleeping on the Spurs. Along with their big 3, they've got a bunch of guys who rebound (Umberto), play great defense (Bowen), and can nail the open jumper consistently (Bowen, Finley).
I'm a Laker fan (again), but I'm not 100% convinced that our squad is the best in the West. We need to take care of business Friday and then focus on getting 1 in San Antonio.
