Superstitious?

Lord, I am not blogging because I am superstitious, I am here because I believe in favor... I am a wretch that deserved a devils hell, but was graced with a Savior. Each blog that I have called on You in this series has resulted in a Lakers victory! Can I get a Laker blowout tonight? I know it's not my birthday, or my rebirthday (born again), but it would be nice to have game seven go even better than game six for the Lakers. I remember what You said about the whole "you have not because you ask a miss" thing that You said through James. So I am asking for a supernatural backside warming victory for the Lakers. Oh one other thing, could You keep the Kobe interview to a minimum tonight unless he glorifies You Lord? Thanks...

OK here's the score, and the last 26 seconds...

Lakers 101 - Boston 98

Final seconds:

Rondo dribbles up the floor with 26 seconds deadlocked at 96. He is met by Kobe Ego Bryant. He drives left toward the KG pick, the reverses his dribble, and drives past Kobe, and Lamar because Lamar has 5 fouls... and hits the runner with 25.1 on the clock! 98 - 96 Celts. Coach Jackson calls a 20.

Out of the time out they run a double curl decoy for Kobe and Fisher is alone in the corner! He misses, and "PAU" the put back by Gasol, and the foul! Gasol gets three the old fashioned way. 99 - 98 Lakers with 20. 7 left. Doc calls a 20.

Doc calls the play for Ray Allen. He rubs off KG for the take, Rondo reverses his dribble, find him, but Pau switches out, Kobe cheats to the rim... Pau gets a piece of it. It falls short, and Pierce is forced to foul Kobe with 6.8 on the clock! The Staples Center is rocking!!! Smiling Jack is on his feet and yelling at Rasheed Wallace like a school yard bully!

Kobe collects himself, no smiles, all ego business, and sinks the first! The crowd is bouncing! Kobe sinks the second one, and the Celtics try to rush the ball up the floor and beat the press. Pierce is well covered by Odom, they double Allen on the in bound, and it's Rondo vs. Kobe... he dribbles up nowhere to go, throws up the prayer, and hits back iron and Gasol gets the board... It's over, it's over! The Lakers have repeated, and are again Champions of the NBA!!! What a finish!

OK the prayed for score: LA 120 - Boston 77 ;)

World Cup 2010 & NBA Game 4 Predictions

Before you watch the video, does anyone care to call the line and compare on Kobe's numbers? Cause I am dead on the money!!!

You may not agree with Maradona's lifestyle, but he was an awesome player, and seems to be a great coach! The Argentine leader, has his squad loose, and ready for action.

OK on an NBA note... I am going to call it right now! Kobe will be in that focused mode again tonight, and fired up to do something big from here on out! Here is the line:
35 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds, 3 steals, 1 block, and 0 smiles. Lakers go up 3 - 1 in a 102 - 96 victory leaving the TD Garden sounding like it's full of crickets looking for a healing service from TD Jakes.

The World Doesn't Owe Us!

The prodigal son wanted his on the spot! Kobe Bryant evidentally wanted his on the spot! The Celtics said, "NO!" Kobe snubbed a fan in game one, but as my boss pointed out wasn't so focused at the half when the cameras showed him playing with his kids at the half. I am a family man, and believe that if anyone could lose focus it should only be to focus more on his/her family, but even family understands that there is a job to do at times. Kobe didn't give up at the end of the first half, but at the end of the game when everyone else was hustling Kobe showed a frustration that made Paul Pierce smile. Ray Allen smiled the whole game! Why because they know it's OK to have fun, and still remain focused! To win game three the Lakers will need not just a snobbish focus, but the same drive for the entire game that was displayed during the last 12 seconds of the first half of game 2! Stay focused but not to the point of not having fun, and enjoying your work! "DO WORK," and have fun! Relax, the world doesn't owe you, and know that all you owe, is all you have when you're born, and that is to love. So love thrashing the Celtics, Kobe, and lighten up! Romans 13:8
