Nba Finals

Being from Boston, it's hard to even say that the Lakers are the champs; we wish the Celtics were in their shoes. But even a die-hard Celtics fan needs to admit that the Lakers earned the title and so did KOBE and PHIL.

This should be a good match up, bringing us fans some entertaining finals games.  I called Orlando beating Cleveland and that was because the Magic played as a team throughout the whole pla

Or is it dilemmi? Either way.

As the entire NBA world eagerly awaits the potential match-up of Kobe and LeBron in this year's finals, they also can't help observe it's getting increasingly difficult for them to get there. The Magic and Nuggets are hitting their strides at the right time, with bench players stepping up at crucial moments, Van Panic and Karl making good coaching moves, and both team's point guards acting as the leaders they can be. Even if the current and future MJ's of our time average 50 a game for the rest of the playoffs, it won't matter. That's not how you reach the Golden Summit (Yes, I just used "Golden Summit" as an analogy for the Finals. Deal with it. I like it.).

I'm a Kobe fan. Huge Kobe fan. He's practically my generation's MJ. Nothing against MJ, I just never saw him play much. I went to the United Center once, when I was seven, and all I remember is Scottie Pippen's crew-cut and cotton candy. Also, I'm from D.C., so the fact that MJ ruined the entire development and chemistry of an up-and-coming Washington Wizards team, just so he could milk a little more limelight, doesn't really sit well.

Call the cops cause the Lakers got murdered last night, as the Celtics went on to win their record 17th championship . After dominating the Western Conference playoffs, the Lakers got beat up and down the floor last night. It even left red blood stains on Doc's suit, it was actually red Gatorade. The Celtics defense held the Lakers to 42.2% shooting, forced 18 steals, and if not for some garbage time buckets in the final three minutes the Lakers had only scored 85 points. They were able to stop the Laker's aggressive play by cutting off passing lanes and coming over to help when they saw the Lakers move to the basket.

How quickly we forget. Just last year Kobe Bryant was a whining malcontent who was estimated by just about everybody to be a cancer to the Lakers organization. He was a ball hog who shot first, and thought about winning second. He was the type of player who would rag on his teammates in front of a camera in a department store parking lot, and the type of employee who would throw his employers under the Buss any chance he got. It seems that winning changes a lot of things for Kobe, but even more so for Laker fans.

That putback dunk by Kevin Garnet said it all. This game was very competitive. Celts win 98-88. I like watching it and I wouldne mind seeing it again but with a little more Kobe. I dont know what happ

In no way do writers of the Suffolk Voice condone underage drinking, so this game is intended for adults 21+. With that being said, this drinking game will guarantee to get you blackout drunk by halftime if you follow all the rules. It is highly recommended that you record this game as you are watching it so you don’t miss what will undoubtedly be a great series.

By now you’ve watched enough television and read enough articles to know more than you ever have known about the Celtics and Lakers. I’ll spare you the 5,000 word match up breakdown and sum it up short for you: Nobody matches up well with Kevin Garnett. Kobe Bryant is the best scorer in the league. Paul Pierce can do it all, and will. Lamar Odom is underrated and overrated at the same time, I’m not sure how though. If Kendrick Perkins can stay out of foul trouble, he will dominate Pau Gasol down low. Rajon Rondo is much better than he thinks he is. Both teams’ benches are pretty equal in talent; I don’t see a huge advantage either way. There’s your breakdown, fill in the blanks as the game goes on.
