    Like one of those two tropical storms jumps to Orlando and destroys the Laker's hotel?

    I and nine other guys
    are getting ready to celebrate since we predicted a 4-1 win by lakers in this series. We will be the only posters allowed to live, since the deal was you had to pick as if your life depended on it! Unfortunately, that's about all we can celebrate. No good draft pick; no big changes coming, losing hope for Simons and Zach to be stars.........We will still be alive but condemned to a hellish Purgatory!

    Don't. If Disney scripted this it would run something like this.

    Dame convinces Stotts to let him play.
    He suffers a career ending injury.
    Some stuff happens.
    He becomes coach of the worst high school team in Seattle, upsets Roy's team in the finals, and starts a rivalry that lasts for decades.

    So I called the lakers getting a sweep. Does a gentleman’s sweep still count?
