WE SWEEP L.A.!!!!--predictions update April 5

[snoopy1@pig.net]

YAY!!!!  The Good Guys destroyed the Lakers, sweeping the season 
series--and by the way, I like the Johnny Most style of broadcasting--and 
it allowed us to dispense with the higher mathematics, which made my head 
hurt anyway.  The Celtics are playoff-bound, now 44-32 with 6 games to go.

A lot of people thrilled to be wrong with the thunderous defeat of the 
Despicable Ones from LA, and we acknowledge them here:  Alden Brosseau, Joe 
Hironaka, Ken Kokubo, Steve Ouellette, Josh Ozersky, Alexander Wang, and 
Cecil Wright.  Congratulations for underestimating the Green Machine!!


And now, the numbers...

Not in the predictions playoffs, but rooting for the Good Guys nevertheless...
