Cavs v. Lakers
I actually watched a regular season NBA game that didn't involve the Milwaukee Bucks for the second time this year. I was hyped to see the Kobe v. Lebron James matchup, but thanks to the Rockets and Nets going into OT I didn't get to see Bryant get injured live.

No I didn't get the Kobe v. Lebron matchup, but I did get to watch several other matchups like Chucky Atkins v. Lebron, and Sasha Vujacic v. Lebron and of course Jumaine Jones v. Lebron.

Somehow, despite Bryant being injured, the Lakers defeated the Cavs 98-94. Lamar Odom and Caron Butler each stepped up from beneath Bryant's shadow and scored 24 and 21 respectively.

I'd have to say my favorite part of the night was seeing Ashton Kutcher celebrate the Lakers victory as the final buzzer sounded. I love the NBA! It's FANtastic!!!
