Dwight Howard guarantees a Magic victory tonight. Look for Kobe to take that personally and torch Orlando for 50 and his 4th ring.

Looking for a closeout game from the Lakers

Lakers need to close out the Magic tonight. Expecting the Lakers to turn-it up a notch or two this evening

Its' over tonight!!

Magic sadly will probably watch LA celebrate very soon, maybe even on their home floor tonight. Not a chance of coming back from a 3-1 deficit, but a 2-2 tie with another at home would have made things interesting.

It was a great run that could have ended differently, but the Magic showed their youth and were outcoached in this finals, but not outplayed in my opinion, with the exception of Kobe of course.

Games 2 and 4 were tough to watch if you are one of the very few rooting for Orlando and the missed free throws at the end reminded many of us of Nick Anderson back in 95. For God's sake, you can't ice the game and hit just 1?

Lots of things could have been done differently, especially at the guard position.

I have a feeling it won't be another 15 years before the Magic return to the finals, and in my narrow mind, they showed that they deserved to be there this year.

Great, now we get to hear about Kobe's 'greatness' for weeks until something exciting (like football season) happens.

Lakers showed they are the best in the league

Go Lakers!!!

What amazes me about the Lakers victory is Dwight Howard staying on the court to watch them celebrate. The guy obviously wants a ring badly and will get one eventually. It is great to see a pro player with that much desire. He is a class act for sure.

Now it will be interesting to see how the Lakers offseason goes. Odom and Ariza are both free agents. I hope both resign but we will see how much winning means to them. Or will they take more money somewhere else?
