  NBA Finals 2004 - Detroit beats LA 4-1 So the lakers got spanked and yanked like nobody's business... I am no laker fan (far from it - I am a Kings tragic) but I didn't expect them to lose, not to detroit who couldn't score points for dear life... I guess this once again proves - it's the team that wins and not superstars - sounds too idealistic, but boy, was there a bigger endorsement of this thesis than these NBA finals... If there's one thing I feel bad about - I lost 10 bucks on the lakers to a work colleague!
