This all reminds of the Lakers and the new team they built with Gasol added to the lineup. People thought it was a rebuild but for some reason they wind up in the Finals against the Celtics who beat them in 6 games. I was real miserable over that. They weren't ready for the Finals but they had enough spunk to get there. They come back and win the next two NBA Finals against the Magic and then again against the Celtics. Talk about anxiety over that entire series where the Celtics were up 3-2 in the series.

Point being the first time this new Lakers team made it to the Finals they just weren't ready. They came back to win two more in a row.

So can we.
