Last week, we wondered aloud whether some Lakers fans would be torn on who to root for should the Warriors and Celtics meet in the NBA Finals. After a long weekend and a lengthy conversation with some fans, it appears the disappointments from last year just keep on coming.
Shocking as this might be that this somehow requires explanation: No, under absolutely zero circumstances whatsoever, it is not OK for any Lakers fan to root for the Boston Celtics. An alien civilization could come to earth and play that team and even as the fate of humanity rests in the balance, I would be team alien.
