That's the series.

Great, great comeback for the Celtics.

Better luck next year for the Lakers.

I don't think there are many words than can describe that kind of mental toughness...that kind of heart by Boston. Boston fans should be immensely proud of their team. That was simply classic NBA basketball. Way to go Doc River in simply benching the reason you can't score in Rondo. Your offense is simply..you don't a 'true point guard' to run it. Pierce, Allen are more than capable of initiating it.

Just are great win and thats an understatement.

Worse choke job in Lakers history. Celtics deserve to be champions.

Warn yourself, please.


I'm sorry, Kobe makes me nervous down the stretch :oops:

Celtics are a better team, plain and simple.

They faced a tougher test in the East than what the Lakers are putting up...hell based on the way this series is going the Cavs would have taken out the Lakers

That's absolutly pathetic. They should all be ashamed of themselves. It's like they forgot there was a 2nd half.

Congrats to the Celtics team. Played better, smarter, tougher, and harder after the 1st quarter. Lakers softness and lack of interior D exposed again.

Garnett with the D, PP with the late game heroics in some of the other games, Ray Allen seems like the forgotten man.... if he gets the Finals MVP that would be wonderful.

But still, this **** aint over....

Yeah and some dude was claiming Pierce should be MVP. When Pierce was choking all over the place, Ray was at least keeping them looking like an NBA caliber team.

This is a prime example of why defense wins championships.
