Top 11 Celtic-Lakers Game Five Takeaways

11) It's OK to call Pau Gasol soft again

10) After four-plus games of diva-level acting between the two most theatric teams in the Association, Jeff van Gundy has finally noticed that players sell fouls to the refs, and No Sir, He Doesn't Like It

9) When Kobe Bryant scores every point, but the Lakers don't score a very large amount, everyone still has to be very, very impressed

8) The Lakers had fewer assists than turnovers, which tends to happen when Kobe jacks up over one out of evey three shots

7) Phil Jackson must be a genius, since only a genius can spend two games failing to work out a way to expose Nate Robinson on defense

6) Boston Fans are the best in the Association... at throwing things at opposing players, making contact, and not having it count as a technical foul

5) Laker Fan might not be so sold on that Ron Artest for Trevor Ariza swap now

4) Some day, science may determine why a Finals team that's one win away from their second title in three years has to end quarters like a very bad D-League team

3) These games must be important, since celebrities watch them

2) The Lakers are going to have a hard time crying about the officiating, since the Celtics only shot 9 free throws

1) I'd like to beat every single person involved in the Adam Sandler Cinematic Turdfest and relentless cross-promotional push on the spine with a hammer
