A good recap (and how can you not love the shot of Fish being showered in Bud Light?) from the always-sterling NBAoffseason.com:

Here are 13 things I know…

1.) The 2010 Los Angeles Lakers are World Champions

2.) LA won the ugliest Game 7 in the history of the NBA, and potentially, the history of Sport.

The Lakers were 27-83 from the field (32.5%), while the Celtics were 29-71 (40.8%).  Over the season, both teams were played great team defense, but in this game, defense be damned.  Each team just missed great shots all night.  Kobe shot 25% on the night, and Paul Pierce only made 5 shots (however, Game 7 leader, KG only made 8).

3.) Haribo is the Cadillac of Gummy Bears.

4.) The refs let them play tonight…

…until they didn’t.  In the fourth, the Lakers got to the bonus early, and made multiple trips to the line.

Why stop “letting them play” in the fourth?  Why hadn’t the refs been “letting them play” all Finals long. Inconsistency plagues this league’s referees, and this series was ugly because of it.  These seven games will not go down as memorable.

5.) The Lakers won, but the Celtics might have been the better team tonight.  They just collapsed at the wrong time.  Rajon Rondo is another two seasons away from being right there with Paul and Deron.  He just needs to know how to manage a game, and when to look for his offense.  He should be taking 1,000 jumpers a day this summer.

6.) Rasheed Wallace is a phenomenal post defender.

7.) Ron Artest was out of his mind after the win.

8.) There is no #8.

9.) Ray Allen looked like a victim of age the last few games.  The wheels came off KG’s wagon last year, and Allen looked shot after Game 2.  In his defense, he’s a 34 year old jump shooter.  And he’s a goddamn jump shooter.  He needs his legs.  It was bound to happen sometime.  With that said, no one struck more fear in my Laker heart than Ray. 

I think he’s the post-Bruce Bowen, best defender on Kobe in the league.

10.) Kobe hit the window hard.  The greats find a way to contribute.  Atta boy.

11.) We gotta get the wives and kids off those stages.  It’s a moral imperative.  No way the Bryants should be on stage in front of the rest of the players and staff.  Gross.

12.) Jack Nicholson is ICE COLD.  He barely moved when KG ran out of bounds.  I’m surprised he wasn’t drinking a glass of bourbon.

13.) Derek Fisher hits daggers.  He should be in the same breath as Robert Horry, and the Lakers should use him next year as such. 

You hit daggers, you get to wear the beer hat.  Congrats Fish.
