Count it.

17 Predictions for tonight's game:

1. Paul Pierce drops a 32/8/5. Garnett a 15/10. Ray Allen a 25/8.

2. Kobe is the game's leading scorer with 38 points, 30 of them in the second half.

3. The Lakers shoot under 80% at the free throw line.

4. Mike Breen says "hard foul" 14 times, with none of those actually being a hard foul.

5. Posey comes up big again -- let's say four three's.

6. I will confuse Ray Allen and Sam Cassell (by looks from afar only) for the 500th time this season.

7. PJ Brown throws down 1 dunk, and three fouls in four minutes.

8. Sasha Vujacic fouls out and openly cries on the bench.

9. Van Gundy moves from calling Doc Rivers 'brilliant' to openly questioning his line-up switches 5 times.

10. Having rotated through all the other pastels, Michelle Tafoya wears a light yellow pantsuit.

11. Mark Jackson says "You talk about..." for the millionth time, causing me to bitch about it for the millionth time.

12. The ratio of Kobe Bryant smiles and winks to Kobe Bryant scowls and yelling at teammates shown on tv will be 100:1. The actuality will be 1:100.

13. Tony Allen will see no playing time. Good Lord, please.

14. Derek Fisher will be the only Laker who won't be ashamed of himself after the game is over.

15. The refs will cast a shadow of doubt on whoever wins this game.

16. The Celtics win 108-100.

17. Paul Pierce is named Finals MVP.
