When we booked our Kanazawa-to-Tokyo-to-Shanghai flights, we grimaced at the four hour layover in Tokyo's Narita airport... turns out, it was a gift from above. It just so happens that these were the EXACT four hours that the final game of the NBA championships was being played back in Boston and it was broadcast on a giant flat screen TV (with Japanese commentators) as we stepped off the plane into the terminal. David got his first Celtics championship in 21 years, with a 39 point blowout of the hated Lakers and could hardly contain himself. The Chinese media (this image is from Yahoo! China's sports page) seemed more concerned about Kobe's failure than the Celtics triumph! We're not sure exactly what the purple headline is, but we're going with something like "Crushed!" or "Dumped!" or "Ouch!"
