I do love however that the confetti came down for the Magic's "win" with 0.2 still on the clock. They had to wait for all of that presumptuous confetti to be cleaned up before the Magic went for their final free throws and put them down for the win. At least they can make their free throws. Bah!
The game was close and the Lakers were able to stay close the entire game and only lost by four (108-104). If they had made those free throws...
Moving on. Some of my favorite things that have come from these finals are commercials. It's great that we don't just have presumptuous confetti, but also presumptuous commercials! Both Nike and Vitamin Water were counting on the Cavaliers facing off against the Lakers in the finals pitting LeBron against Kobe! Nike has some delightful puppet commercials that alternate as to which player teases the other. The best is when LeBron doesn't make it and is left alone with asthmatic Dez. Check it out...

You can then watch the rest after that by following the links on youtube. You should, because it just gets more and more delightful. YAY!
Now Vitamin Water had a "who is better" contest with LeBron versus Kobe. It is quite dramatic and pretty awesome to watch.

Then LeBron and his team don't make it and Dwight Howard does! What are they to do? Do a mocu-mercial with Dwight Howard, Duh!!!

It's delightful and a pretty clever way to correct their oops. Congratulations Vitamin Water.
Despite our loss tonight everything is good. It's just one game. And the only one that matters right now is game 4. Moving on to bigger and better things.

I was kinda expecting a loss, but to know they could have won if they had their shots sucks. Gotta love those commercials. Makes me want to buy some Nikes! Marketing genuises! On to game 4....
I love that the confetti came down too early, what a bunch of jerks running that machine! Those puppet comercials were pretty dang funny. Since you would know better then I are those the real voices of LeBron and Koby? Justa wonderin!
Normally I like it when the other team wins at least one game but I was really hoping for a great big fat shut out on Magic. Oh well maybe next year!
You're hilarious. I'm now following your blog. I'm following Mandy and Taylor's while they're in Africa, so I thought I'd find yours too. If you want to follow theirs its tayandmandyinuganda.blogspot.com Love you!
No, it's not their voices...too bad though because that would have been better. (And if it is their voices, I'll be SO surprised).
Kara! I want to, I want to, yay!
Kara, ask them to invite me to read theirs please...?
hahaha...those commercials are great!
I can't get enough of that Kobe O'Brien.
Sigh, no problems here...another game not watched by mom!
