Congratulations: LA Lakers,
NBA World Champions--(June 19, 2000)

Feels sort of funny being able to say that again.  It's been a long time since the last one. . . twelve years.  Actually it seems like yesterday.

While there was much going on in the world of basketball that we usually cover, i.e., upcoming high school tournaments, college recruiting, the 2000 USA Basketball World Youth Development  Games, and a bunch of other stuff, the reality for most of us here in SoCal is that nothing else really mattered except that the Lakers beat Indiana for the NBA Championship title in Game 6 at Staples Center tonight.

So we'll hold off until tomorrow to write about anything else.

Congratulations to the Lakers on a great season.
