		<strong>SPORTS BUZZ</strong>:  
		<strong>The NBA finals have started and it is all about Garnett vs. Kobe.</strong>
		Two huge superstars battle to prove their legacy. Can Kobe win it all without Shaq? Can Garnett finally win a championship now that he has a good team to support him? Soon we will know! Thank god we don&#8217;t have boring teams like Utah, San Antonio, and Detroit in the finals, teams who put you to sleep with tedious &#8220;teamwork&#8221; and &#8220;good fundamentals.&#8221;
