Jeff McDonald: Michael Finley told you so
This is a completely true story that probably would have done us all a bit more good yesterday. But we will relay it anyway ...
So, Spurs practice is winding down on Sunday morning. Michael Finley takes a break from firing up a few foul shots and wanders over toward the gathered media.
"Hey Mike!," he says, motioning to Mike Monroe, the Express-News' NBA writer. "Who's wearing white in the game tonight?" He means the Super Bowl. Needless to say, it's a strange sort of trivia question.
This not being the sort of knowledge that typically sticks in an NBA writer's brain, Monroe tells Finley he doesn't know, but promises to get back to him. After asking around, Monroe discovers the New York Giants, as the designated home team, will be decked out in their lilly whites. He relays this information to Finley, who responds with a bold prediction.
The Giants are going to win, he says. It came to him in a dream.
"I had a vision," Finley said, "of a team in white celebrating."
We all kind of laugh. The Giants are going to ruin the Patriots' perfect season? Yeah, right.
I thought of Finley later Sunday night, as the final score flashed across my TV screen: Giants 17, Pats 14. Call it a high-definition testament to one man's psychic powers.
This much is certain: Next time Finley hits us up with a prediction, we're going directly to Vegas to get rich.
