I wouldn't be surprised with a blowout in our favor! But I really don't want the series go back to Boston. We need to win this one!

The Lakers' spirits are gone (especially since Kobe is yelling at his teammates), and the C's know it's only 1 game. The favor is definitely on our side for Game 5.

The time is now. I'm sure KG, Pierce and Ray can almost feel the ring on their finger.

Close this out in 5! :rocking:

Time to excercise all those demons from the 80s.

While it might be nice to win it in Boston why take any chances?

Besides we have injuries that need time to heal for another run next year. :)

Finish it in LA. Would be nice to take it home to Boston and do it in front of the fans. But winning it on the road simply proves to the world that the Celtics are for real. I think the Lakers fans, brainwashed media, and the arrogant Phil Jackson need to see the Lakers throttled and vanquished before their eyes. At least, I need to see it happen.

Phil must be feeling like **** knowing he will never surpass Red's record.

I don't care if we lose game 5, that CHAMPIONSHIP is ours.

come on. sure it looks like we should be trying on rings right now, but jus how we came back from a 24 point deficit, LA can come back from a 3-1 deficit. its not over until its over. remember, this IS the nba, where anything/rigging/cheating happens. we are clearly the better team & if we take care of business, we'll be champs. so lets actualy get that last win before we say its ours.

GO CELTICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First of, congrats to your 3rd win.

I really like Doc Rivers did in this series, letting PJ Brown and Powe be the big man coming from the bench. It was a BIG move for sitting Glen Davis. I've been really telling my friends since the 1st round that Doc should sit the big Baby. Hey, it paid of

Finish the Lakers!

The best Fathers' Day gift for my dad (a lifelong Celtics fan) would be banner 17.

Do it!
