The NBA Finals are here and it turned out to be a Disneyland vs. Disney World matchup. Time for Angry Trey to give his thoughts and prediction…
NBA. It seems to me that it’s a factor more in basketball than any other sport. Orlando on the other hand, is playing their best basketball of the season and is hitting on all cylinders. They also took the season series 2-0.
Here is a great description/comparison of Kobe and Lebron and it is spot on…
Royce Young, Daily Thunder: The thing I see in Kobe is a straight assassin. He's the Travis Bickle of basketball. He's there to finish you, even if your kid is in the other room watching. I don't get that from LeBron. LeBron is a slow cooker -- a guy that needs 48 minutes to beat you. He's absolutely unguardable one-on-one, he can rebound, he can create for teammates and he can man up. But does he have that sense of the moment like Kobe does?

2 Disneys: Which one is more magical?
Andrea Adelson
It's a question that has perplexed families everywhere: Should they visit Disneyland or Disney World for their family vacation? Let's break down the battle of the Disneys:
History: Disneyland was built first and opened in 1955, so it is the original. Almost everything you see at Disney World is based on Disneyland. Advantage: Disneyland.
What does it offer: Disneyland is smaller and has fewer parks and hotels. Disney World covers over 30,000 acres and includes four theme parks and two water parks, plus more hotel and dining options for families. Advantage: Disney World.
Location: Disneyland is in Anaheim, Calif., so you can take a short drive up I-5 and hang out in super-cool L.A. Disney World was built on swamp lands near Orlando. Advantage: Disneyland.
Intangibles: Because there is more to do and see at Disney World, you can plan an entire family vacation around it. Disneyland might have come first, but isn't bigger better? Advantage: Disney World.
