All hail the champs!

Yesterday the LA Lakers won the NBA title defeating the Orlando Magic 99 - 86.

Full credit to the Lakers for doing what needed to be done to win the Championship Series. Orlando had their chances losing two overtime games but they just weren't good enough.

Some of the numbers from game 5:

Lakers

Kobe Bryant 30 points, 6 boards, 5 assists, 4 blocks, 8 of 8 from the free-throw line
Lamar Odom 17 points, 10 boards, 3 of 3 from downtown (off the bench)
Pau Gasol 14 points, 15 boards, 4 blocks

Magic

Rashard Lewis 18 points, 10 boards, 4 assists (just 6 of 19 from the field)
Dwight Howard 11 points, 10 boards, 3 blocks

I'm heading home shortly in time to catch the second half on OneHD. I'll give a more complete wrap of my thought on the Lakers' title win tomorrow.

In the meantime, if you haven't seen the highlights yet:
