Game 4: First-half live bloggin'...


Game 4.
First-half random thoughts:
Jeffrey Osbourne butchers the National Anthem. He's been a Laker fixture through the years; Magic's fave. Over-sung, as usual.
During the pre-game, we heard what a fabulous leader Kobe Bryant has become from the announcers. 
Um, OK. Gotta have a story.
A Larry David sighting courtside. He's a Knick fan; I hope he's Going Green for the Finals.
The promos for ABC's stupid reality shows have cost me 7 I.Q. points already, and the game hasn't even started yet.
1st quarter:
Lakers are attacking. Celts look muddy.
How many times will we hear that Kobe Bryant is the "best player in the world"?
I'm not that good at math.
KG: 2 fouls. On the bench.
Did Lamar Odom have a cup of coffee before the game?
"Muddy"? The Celtics look like the Clippers.
They look lost.
Van Gundy already says the series will be be 2-2. With a minute left in the FIRST QUARTER.
The largest lead ever after the first quarter of a Finals game. 21 points.
The Celtics better pull their heads out of their asses NOW.
2nd quarter:
KG's back in. I hope he doesn't get so amped that it plays with his head.
Trevor Ariza is beating the Celts to EVERYTHING. He's owning the hustle plays.
KG hits two hoops in a row.
GET AGGRESSIVE!!!!!
Courtside interview with Will Smith. Is it me, or is he getting even smarmier?
Must be the Scientology.
A couple of quick Celts buckets. Down 19. 
12-0 run! Let's go GREEN!
Down 15. 2:30 left in the half.
3 fouls on "The Best Player In The World". Kobe sulks on the bench with less than a minute left in the half.
Gasol, bucket & 1.
Farmer hits a 3 at the buzzer.
Lakers up 18 at the half.
I've enjoyed other first halves much more than this one.
