sporting goodsSince the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Suns in the Western Conference Finals, I can’t go anywhere without seeing a car waving purple LA flags or Lakers’ inspired sporting goods. I live in the LA area and was very disappointed when Phoenix went down in Game 6. It was like pouring salt in the wound when every other person after the game was pumped their team made it to the finals. Now I’m now on the Celtics’ train. I’m really not a fan but the Celtics are the lesser of two evils. I may even go online and start looking for Boston inspired sporting goods to offset all the purple memorabilia covering the streets.

As a NBA fan, this will be a great match up because both LA and Boston have all-star players. Kobe has been clutch this entire playoff so I’m excited to see if he will keep it up starting this Thursday. Teams have trouble beating LA in LA. All of the waving purple sporting goods is enough to intimidate any outside fan or team. You have got to love this game.
