Will Today Mark The End Of An Era In The NBA? (VIDEO)

This week has been a pretty historic one with the death of Osama Bin Laden. Arguably the most notorious villain in the world since Hitler finally met his day and not only the USA, but the world has rejoiced. This week has also found another historic situation playing itself out. The "Lake Show" seems like it may be coming to a close. Many have said that there is a power shift going on right now in the NBA and the Los Angeles Lakers dominant era led by coach Phil Jackson (11 NBA Championships) and NBA Hall of Fame shoe-in Kobe Bryant may be coming to an end right before our eyes. The Lakers are down 0-3 in this playoff series versus the Dallas Mavericks.

No team in NBA history has come back to win a playoff series by winning four straight after losing three straight. Ninety-eight teams have tried.

It's do or die in just a few hours. Will the Lakers stay alive? Or is this the end, my friend?
