Kachcha Chaba Gaya..

As they say back home in India!

Man, was that complete dominance or what!

Very happy, especially, for Paul Pierce, who was chosen as the finals MVP. Richly deserved.

Celtics ’08.

It was the Spurs’ game to win

and they didn’t.

Question 1 – Are they good enough to stop Kobe and Pau and Odom? Answer? A resounding Yes.

Question 2 – Can they come back from this shocking defeat? Answer? I suppose no.

Deduction: I stick to 4-2.

As expected..

Celtics won.

Garnett and Pierce both got 20+ points.

Detroit is a good, solid team, but 3 times out of 5, KG will beat Rasheed. Make that 5 times out of 5 in Boston.

Rip Hamilton had a below-par game, and that is a big factor in the scheme of things. 

I still see a 4-3.

Lakers vs. Spurs

Now that will be something!

Predictions?

Lakers 4-2 Spurs

Pistons 3-4 Celtics

Finals:

Lakers 4-1 Celtics

Who would I want to win? Spurs of course…

Western Conference Semis ’08 – Point Guards

This is at the Game 5 stage, with LAL:UTA 3:2 and NOH:SAS 3:2

And among these four teams are surely the three best small guys in the game (And not including Steve Nash – no defence;  or Jason Kidd – too old. Chauncey Billups is included though). And they have all been in sterling form….

Here’s my rating of the three:

1: CP3 will surely have become the best player of his generation, has there not been LeBron.

2. Parker has proven his worth. Not Kobe or CP3 is terms of skills, but his players (esp. Tim and Manu) play great around him.

3. Deron is, unfortunately, third. And he is extremely good. In two years, he will be No. 2.

So there you go. Me and American sports….

Cheers! And welcome.
