Why We Watch

Last night's basketball game is why we watch sports. Total unpredictability. Derek Fisher are you f---ing kidding me? Did you see that lay up drive to the hoop where 3 Celtics molested him and he still managed to knock it down? This is Derek Fisher we're talking about - a 36 year old point guard significantly slower than me - who was never all that good to begin with. Ray Allen was as bad last night as he was good for the first half of game 2. Kobe and Pierce were terrible. Garnett finally outplayed Gasol. It's like Garnett and Fisher got together and took roids or 24 hour energy drinks. What happened? Very strange. I predicted that if Garnett outplayed Gasol and Rondo played Kobe straight up, the Celtics would win. Both those things happened last night and the Lakers won. Because of Derek Fisher. Unbelievable.
