I'm watching game five of the Lakers-Celtics finals right now. It's the third quarter and the Lakers are hanging on to a 65-64 lead. I've been watching most of the finals with a bunch of fairly hostile Laker fans, but tonight they are fairly subdued. Everyone knows that teams don't come back from 3-1 down in the NBA. Most of the time the body language of the Lakers seems to indicate that they are going through the motions as well.

For what it's worth, I picked the Lakers to win this thing, and was considering getting some $$ onto bodog to bet on it. I was going to take the Lakers in 5 and the Lakers in 6, which combind would have given me about 2-1 odds. Fortunately I didn't do it, so I can root against Kobe and the Lakers wholeheartedly.
