Sure, they deserve happiness in the wake of the Lakers winning the NBA championship in Orlando Sunday, but it's way over the top.

Nobody talks about how a year ago the Celtics humiliated the soft-shell Lakers in six games. This is LA and 12 months ago might as well be the Dolph Schayes era.

Please. Do they actually think they would have won this year if Kevin Garnett had been healthy?

Anybody remember that the final score of Game 6 last year was 131-92? Or that Paul Pierce copped the Finals MVP trophy, totally outplaying the ever-joyless Bryant?

Geez.  Stop sounding so [dang] petty and let them enjoy their title.

At least he's directing his scorn and pettiness at opposing players this time, unlike at local teams / players as is his norm.
