Things almost got worse when Boston star Kevin Garnett nearly plowed into the Lakers No. 1 fan Jack Nicholson on the sidelines. Wow, the old guy is still quick as a cat...and we're talking about Garnett!
Luckily, both Jack and the Lakers sidestepped disaster, with Los Angeles winning a dramatic defensive struggle to take the championship for the second straight year.
