Right now it is Friday night, and halftime in game six of the Jazz/Lakers game. Unfortunately the Jazz are facing elimination and are currently down 19 points. It looks like the season will be ending far earlier than I (and every other Jazz fan) hoped and dreamed of. I was excited, confident, and ready to watch the Jazz win the long awaited NBA Championship! As of now, I feel a sense of emptiness- knowing that summer is about 24 game minutes away. Each year we lose I feel the same emotions - disappointment, anger, hate, etc. (Of course those feelings are against the other team and the stupid refs!) For now I can only dream of a miracle comeback or another chance to win a ring next year and vent about how much I HATE THE LA LAKERS!
Reasons the Lakers are my Least Favorite Team! (In no particular order)
1. Derik Fisher can't miss against us!
2. They are UGLY
3. Gasol is a cry baby
4. Kobe Bryant
5. The way Kobe Bryant gets Star Treatment from the Refs!
6. Did I mention Kobe Bryant!
7. Phil Jackson (still haven't gotten over M.J. & the Bulls)
8. Lamar Odom
9. They are so so so Cocky!
10. The fact that so many dumb stars cheer for them
Honestly I could go on and on. I won't- but I could! I guess I should get back to watching the game. Assuming we lose, there will be a time of mourning, complaining, and thinking, "What if?" Eventually life will get back to normal and the pain will go away!
As always.... the NBA playoffs are fun! Thanks Jazz for a great Run! We love our team and can't help but think.... maybe next year will be our year!!!!
