I must admit I love the NBA or any basketball for that matter. I have been a supporter of the Lakers since 1979. I enjoy all the skill, the courage and the personalities and yes, I do enjoy it when my team wins. But this just wasn't their year. They did extremely well but they came in second. In the minds of many second is just not very good at all. But, think about it. To come in second in the most elite basketball competition in the world is pretty extraordinary.
I'm just sad it is over. At least this year we have the Olympic competition. And there is always next year. The cry of the basketball-a-holic.
