FOR THE RECORD - June 5, 2009
NBA Finals streak: The Totally Random column in Tuesday’s Sports section said that if the Orlando Magic were to lose the first game of the NBA Finals, the team would become the first to lose five consecutive games in the Finals, after being swept in its last appearance, 1995. In fact, the Lakers, in 2004 and 2008, and the Nets, in 2002 and 2003, also lost five in a row.
All things Lakers, all the time.
