The Boston Celtics are one game from bringing back the championship to New England for the first time since the Larry Bird era and they staged a record come-back against the Lakers in the Forum. 24 points down and out. I left my friend's house and drove back to Donald Trump's neighborhood. The house had no cable, so I listened to the game on ESPN. LA's lead was 4 at the 4th. I thought about rushing back to watch the game on TV, then decided it would be bad luck.
Actually listening to the play-by play on the radio was more pleasant than having to suffer through the incessant gauntlet of commercials selling beer, fast food, shitty movies, and pick-up trucks.
Celtics win a big one.
Not that the rest of the world cares about basketball during Euro 2008.
Thai police have arrested over 100 people for gambling on the soccer championships. Mostly bookies to whom their friends have lost bets. Not one gambler was arrested for wagers on the NBA finals. Not even in the USA.
