Why?

Almost three quarters into game 1 of the NBA Finals there's just one question on my mind:  Why is Jameer Nelson playing in this game, or this series at all?  He's been out since before the All-Star break!  He hasn't played a minute in months.  What part of that would indicate that he would be ready at all to play in the NBA FINALS?!?!  I realize that he is a great player, but to play him now is absurd.

Orlando is the underdog in these finals.  But they have beaten the Lakers before.  They don't need to do anything crazy in order to do it again.  Just play the way they have been playing, and everything else will fall into place.  Dwight Howard should be dominant in the middle, and just like the Cavs, the Lakers should not be able to defend both Hedo Turkoglu and Rashard Lewis.  No need to play a guy who is obviously not going to be at his best.  No wonder they are doing by 27 points right now.

Just writing out a little bit of frustration right now.
