Historic

I was almost going to feel bad for the Lakers - I remember that pit in my stomach when they came storming back in game 2. Then I read their post game quotes and see they have the nerve to whine about the referees!

The officiating has been dubious throughout the series, with the home team (in my estimation) getting a boost in every game except 1. And I can live with that, especially since a big part of the free throw disparity has more been the aggressiveness than blatently terrible calls. But when Sasha cries that the reason he got smoked by Ray Ray is because he picked up a few foul calls - the trip in the third where they both went down and when Allen beat him back to his feet he proceeded to scissor clip him down scared the heck out of me given alll then injuries - I find I can't help but enjoy their painful demise.

Of course I also remember the historic beat down the Yankees delivered in 2004 to go up 3-0. Like Phil said, it aint over yet.
