Dennis Hopper, Gary Coleman, Celtics, Lakers/Suns?

Will it be "Los Suns" or the Lakers? Part of me really wants the Lakers (my least liked NBA team) so that the Celtics could beat them and make them look terrible, but another part of me wants the Suns so that, no matter what, the Lakers can't win. I would really like to see 2-time MVP Steve Nash win a championship as well. The guy is humble, socially engaged, and incredible to watch.

Who knows what treasures in game 6 of the Western Conference Finals are held in store for us tonight, but the Celtics look amazing. Rondo isn't the best point guard in the game, but he is damn good, and a playmaker, and very fun to watch.

Gary Coleman passed away yesterday and Dennis Hopper today. My brother used to love Diff'rent Strokes while we were growing up, but I don't remember anything about it. I did love Blue Velvet though, and Wenders' The American Friend (based on the Ripley novels by Patricia Highsmith). I still have yet to see Easy Rider which he co-wrote and directed and is considered by many to be his best. RIP guys.
