Bowling Green, OH -- Martin Samarco netted 20 points to lead Bowling Green past the Eastern Michigan Eagles, 73-71, as the Falcons survived a furious rally by their Mid-American Conference rivals.

Q: How did I know Kobe was innocent in his rape charge? A: He's never made a pass in his life. To prove that I was right all along, Kobe Bryant stunned the basketball world last night in an 81-point romp against the Toronto Raptors. His Lakers won the game and embarrassed the Raptors 122-104.

I've been sitting watching the NBA playoffs and enjoying every moment of which. From Steve Nash's return to Dallas, Reggie Millers spectacular performances and final NBA game. Dwayne Wade truly turning into the player of the future and he will be phenomenal. Now where down to the finals. Pistons vs. Spurs. Should be a good series because these teams are som evenly matched it's crazy, but the one thing I've been hearing for the last few days is "Is this series good for the NBA?" Is it good...
