'Do you believe in miracles? I do !!'
The headlines truly say it all: Gotta 'C' it to believe it ... Seeing this was believing. ... It doesn't get any better ... Stunned, Lakers hit deck ... Celtics go to extremes ... Comeback story ... Quote of the Day (maybe season, maybe decade) from Kobe:

We just wet the bed. A nice big one, too. One of those you have to put a towel over.

The panic and fury in the post below? Nothing there. Move on. Nothing there. ... Really, I've never seen such extremes. It's not that the Lakers were ever in control. The final score proves that. It's how out of control, and then in control, the Celts were last night. ... What a frigging game. One for the ages. ...

Update -- Schadenfreude trolling: Lakers have a collapse for the ages. Quote of the Day II, also from Kobe, when asked how the Lakers will bounce back:

A lot of wine, a lot of beer, a couple shots, maybe like 20 of them, digest it, get back to work.

From our old friend Bill, who wasn't impressed with Kobe walking off the court with three seconds left:

In the end, the building was silent, the Lakers' faces were blank, and Bryant was gone.

Sort of how this season started, no?
