NBA FINALS
I found myself (just like 28 other people did last night in America) watching Game 1 of the NBA Finals. It was a sloppy, half-court grind-it-out Miami Heat/New York Knicks-style game circa 1996, but I was happy to see that Detroit won. I know that a lot of people were thinking that the Lakers would sweep the series, but you have to remember that the Lakers are a soap opera, winning the series easily wouldn't be as dramatic as losing Game 1 and losing home-court advantage.

I still don't think the Pistons will win the series. You may remember a few years ago when Philly beat the Lakers in Game 1 and then they ended up losing four games in a row. The team that wins Game 1 of the NBA Finals goes on to win the series 72% of the time though, so that bodes well for Dtown.
