D-Train to the D-backs! And an NBA Finals preview

I just saw on ESPN.com that Dontrelle Willis was traded to the Diamondbacks! I'm not sure whether to be happy about this, or very, very scared. I feel like they're not losing anything (the player they traded had an ERA of about 11.00) and if he returns to form, he's a Cy Young candidate.

Also, if he returns to form, and their other pitchers can too, they'll have one of the best 1-2-3 punches in baseball. I know it's a long shot, but crazier things have happened.

My real concern is that they really need one good bullpen pitcher. I saw on the bottom line today that their bullpen has blown 11 of 21 save opportunities, which is just ridiculous. It's still pretty early, but they've been embarrassing up to this point.

Enough about baseball right now. The NBA Finals are coming up pretty soon, and I just wanted to throw my two cents in.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CELTICS!!!!!!!!!

That is all. The Lakers could die for all I care. Pau Gasol is ugly and stupid, and Kobe Bryant sucks compared to Danny Granger!

Okay not really, but I really really want the Celtics to win. And if their defense plays like it has been during these playoffs, I can easily see it happening. Especially considering that the Lakers were thrown into a funk by a simple zone defense, which any Student Impact basketball team could beat.

I don't want to make any predictions, for fear that I'll jinx the Celtics, but I will say that these are two very evenly matched teams. It'll be like Hickory vs. South Bend or whoever they played. It'll come down to the last shot in every game! Hopefully the Celtics will sign Gordon Hayward though, and then they'll have no chance of losing.

That's it for now. D-Train for Cy Young!
