Guess there aren't any b-ball fans here, OK, but I'm going to celebrate anyway:

We are the CHAMPIONS!

Orlando were valiant, they were competitive, but they did not have the composure and the experience that the Lakers did and that was the difference this year. It could be said that Orlando choked away two games, but the champions are the ones who make the plays.

I just can't root for anyone in purple.
Does that make me shallow?

Completely agree. I personally never detract from a winning team's performance due to mistakes or couldhaveshouldhavewouldhave's on the part of the losing team (even when the losing team is my team.) You don't win on ability (directly) you win on performance.

Not for me to say, but what it doesn't make you is a Minnesota Vikings fan. :biggrin:

I know they say purple, but the Laker road unis haven't be truly purple in a long time. Sure, officially it's purple, but I think they're blue.

Ironically, my favorite Uncle was a Vikings fan, so I said I was too...then I actually saw them on tv...more traumatic than finding the truth about the tooth fairy.
