Token NBA Finals Post

My take on the Lakes/Pistons series is not full of insight. It's all been said before. The Lakers looked old and slow and, in complete Un-Phil Jackson fashion, no role players stepped up. Too much Kobe trying to go one-on-one, and not enough running the offense through Shaq. Blah blah blah.

It was sweet to watch the Lakers lose, especially to a team like Detroit. But as I was watching the last two games, I kept on asking the same question over and over. "How the hell did the Spurs lose to these guys????"

Looks like I wasn't the only one.

From San Antonio Express-News's Mike Monroe, concluding a column about Karl "Coat Tails" Malone:

His summer will be about career decisions, not reverie. He must ask himself if another possible knee operation and long rehabilitation is worth the possibility of finally achieving what Brown did on Tuesday.

It is a question with no easy answer.

And here is another question that begs for an answer:

How did the Spurs ever drop that Western Conference semifinal series to the Lakers?
