At the Top; Now Without a Doubt

Well I can say nothing by the moment. Lakers absolutely did it. It is truly OUR time, the time we call REDEMPTION. I don't care if this will be my shortest blog ever. I just got overwhelmed so much.

Congratulations Zen Master and Kobe!

"The tenth to be at the top. The fourth to leave those doubt."

AS OUR TIME COMES CLOSER

Define resiliency? The answer is the Lakers itself. Execution after execution. Poise after poise. Three's after three's, and now the Magic is trailing 3 games to 1. The Redemption is near. Maybe in less than three days it will happen. As the "The Old Man" veteran Derek Fisher hits his clutch three to tie the game in regulation, I know that Game 4 belongs to L.A. already. I recently wrote that better "Mark my word" about the outcome of this game today. Yes it is a sweet revenge. Now that we're a win away to our 15th title, and Coach Phil's soon to be 9th title rings over the last eighteen years, it will be much better to clinch in at Amway Arena by Monday morning. Why? Because there nothing more to prove on both camps. Orlando gives their best. Dwight is the real Superman. But they are still a very young team. They can used this as a lesson for their brighter future. I know there's no room for giving up for Orlando's chances but history isn't by their side. It is OUR time. I already told you that guys. Emotional and Mental toughness is our best weapon in this series. We are very eager and confident to win that ring after this game. This is it. The seven-long years of waiting is over I guess. Finished by Monday or Wednesday is not a big deal. Mr. Bryant and Co. just finished it please. So we can be going bananas for this much awaited Post-Shaq NBA Finals Championship.

Fakes and Breaks

It is uncharacteristic for a Laker Fan like me, not to write about the early two wins by my team. Instead I will be thinking something about this painful loss in Game 3. We had the chances, but they blowned it up. Mental lapses and unfocus eagerness is the main key for this defeat. Pietrus' footback and his superstar steal bring back the Lakers down to earth. They made good comeback but still lose it though. Bryant is spectacular in the first two quarters then suddenly lost his clucthness in the dying minutes. Lakers almost had it. Vengeance will definitely Bryant's option by Game 4. His rhythm truly drops in those important possessions, but still fighting until the end of it. He really deserve his fourth ring. This is his time. This will be Lakers time. This is OUR Time. We'll be bouncing back on the Game 4. Mark my word.

The Kryptonite

Now that the Conferences Showdown is over, its time for the NBA Finals to come. Lakers against the Magic. Kobe against Superman. This is less exciting comparing to a Kobe-Lebron matchup but I guess this is much good basketball in the making for Bryant and the Co. The Lakers didn't win against the Magic back to the regular season. Its payback time for the Lakers. There are two things in my mind as a Laker fan. First to getback to Orlando. Lastly to seek revenge for the lost time and glory. This is the perfect chance for them to win their Post-Shaq NBA Title. The perfect chance to redeem what must have been on to them a year ago. A NBA Finals Trophy.

Orlando is a also a perfect opponent for the Lakers. Matchup-wise they can cover the might of the Superman. Athleticism-wise they are heavenly favored. The battle of the benches can be also an important factor to them. The Lakers can go a Nate Robinson in this series. The Kryptonite must be pull-out in the face of the Man of Steel. But this ain't just Howard. Their defense must contain the Magic's Three Point Bombs. Inside and Outside defense will be the Green thing for the Lakers. As I hope, This is the moment were all waiting for.

Go Lakers!
