    Boston is gonna win this series imo, I think in the first half they were just feeling each other out, but in the 2nd half their #1 rated defense got turn on.

    Also Marc jackson SMH, has there ever been a worst in game commentator???

    I hate when he says, "momma there goes that man", what a dumb quote to use every single game that he does.

    Steven A Smith waz bashing gasol, calling him soft. SMH he just can't wait for the oppurtunity to bash a euro.

    Kobe Bryant had a off night, and he gave him the benefit of the doubt

    I love the media. They are the ones that totally blew the Pierce thing out of proportion, then they turn it all around and bash Pierce for exaggerating an injury or whatever they wanna call it. As Michelle Tafoya reported, Pierce wanted to walk to the back to get checked out, but it was the trainers that forced him to be carried out and put on a wheelchair. And the huge reaction from Boston fans was not applauding his courage or his heart of a warrior, it was a giant sigh of relief because I, and every other Celtics fan, thought we were about to get swept if Pierce couldn't play. SMH @ all of you buying into this crap.

    ^^^this article kinda sums up why I'm picking the celts in 7..........but these or my thoughts on game one (since I know you'll care about them so much)


    The Celtics
    KG = will have a field day regardless of his inability to post up....
    Pierce = he'll be fine....and I had no problem with the wheelchair moment, dude was just taking precaution....he even admitted he was a little embarrased himself
    Allen = the main difference between the celtics in the first 2 series, and the series against the Pistons....when he's on the Celts are a totally different team...and imo I think the Kobe hatred will work in the Celts favor, because Ray takes it personally and therefore will bring "it" everynight
    Sam I Am = still has some magic left........sure he'll take some bad shots, but he did the same thing with the greatest big man of our modern era when he was a ROOKIE!!!....in the end the good outweighs the bad with Sammy
    Perkins = would've been crucified if Pierce was done for the year
    Rondo = an all around solid performance
    Posey = people forget how great a defender this guy is....he's a smart, physical, long, and quick veteran defender
    P.J. Brown = this old man keeps ****ing shit up for folk
    Doc Rivers = pretty good job in game one (surprisingly), needs to post KG up more though


    The Lakers
    Kobe = will be fine, BUT dude needs to get to the rack....game one looked very tmac-esque with all those damn fall away jumpers he was taking. Celtics will happily look at him shooting contested fadeway jumpers, and not getting in the lane getting folks in foul trouble and others involved
    Odom = this dude continues to piss me off...so talented yet so damn mentally soft
    Pau = did this dude score a bucket by his own damn self? I mean every bucket he hit was, because of kobe....and can we please grab a rebound““?
    Fisher = played great, lakers will be in good shape if they can get that kind of production every night from D. Fish
    The Bench = Phil should've played them more, but at the same time I think some have kinda overrated the bench. Luke Walton just flat out sucks. Farmar can be good depending on the night. Sasha is the most reliable and dude ain't afraid of the moment. Turiaf is a hustle guy. Ariza can be a factor, but I don't think he's healthy right now. Mbenga should retire. I mean there is no true "6th man" off their bench........
    Phil = should use bench more

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>BTW, didnt anyone notice that the celtics stole the "Let's go Lakers" by replacing it with "Let's go celtics"?</div>

    LOL, just about every team in the NBA with a 2 syllable name uses that chant, haha.....

    1st off, Sam Cassell never played with Shaq as a rookie [​IMG].

    Personally, I think this series can be heavily swayed by pace. The Celtics like grinding it out defensively and offensively. Taking their time.

    If the pace is pushed, the Celts can't get set on defense, in which having KG and Perkins around the paint makes them effective. However if this becomes a fast paced game and it will give the advantage to the Lakers.

    I'm thinking Lakers in 6, or 7.
