Kind of old news. But here is the link to the column I wrote for the Temecula Californian out of Game 2 of the NBA Finals.

With Game 3 only a few hours away, it seems to me the key will be if the Lakers can match the enthusiasm and intensity that playing at home is likely to generate in the Orlando Magic. Often, in these playoffs, the Lakers have not been able to do that, on the road.

Lakers win tonight, and the Magic’s spirit finally could be broken.
