Hey Shaq, Tell Me How My Ass Tastes

Kobe Bryant finally got his title as he put up 30 points in Game 5 to knock off the Orlando "We Should Be Banned From Ever Returning To The NBA Finals" Magic. There is no doubt that Kobe was the star of the Finals but the play of Pau Gasol, Trevor Ariza, and Lamar Odom cannot be praised enough. It certainly didn't hurt that the Orlando Magic handed them Game 4 and was a goaltending call away from winning Game 2. The championship is like Phil Jackson's 42nd title and like the 71st or 63rd for the Lakers organization. Phil surpasses Red Auerbach with the most titles in NBA history and I am not impressed at all. I'm pretty sure that the Lakers could've replaced the Zen Master with a blowup doll and still won this series. Hell, the Bulls could've thrown a blowup doll on the end of the bench for a whole decade and still won 6 titles as long as Dennis Rodman didn't try to screw it. I guess what I'm getting at is Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan are really good players. Has Kobe caught up with MJ yet? No way, but that Jordanesque shot in Game 5 was eerily similar. Congrats Kobe. Go celebrate... with your wife.
