Stern Lives

After going up 3-0 and 2-0, respectively, it was beginning to look like the Celtics and Lakers were destined to sweep through the Conference Championships and battle it out in the Finals for the 11th time. Not so fast. Despite a poor effort from Vince Carter (shown above), the Magic outlasted the Celtics in OT to send the series back to Orlando for Game 5 Wednesday night, thus delaying the inevitable.

But the question I've been pondering since Sunday is whether the Suns can sneak by the Lakers in this series. I think they can, but they must win tonight to have any chance at all. Nash's nose is broken. Lamar Odom should bounce back from an awful Game 3. And no way Amare gets 42 again. Someone is going to have to step up for the Suns tonight, and I suspect it'll come down to whether Jason Richardson hits his 3's. Stay tuned...
