So it's Boston v. Kobe. Cool. I'm glad Fish, Gasol, and Vlad showed up. I'm glad our bench showed up. I guarantee Kobe was the only Laker who packed enough luggage for two games. Hey, but at least Lamar is trying, right?
I won't say a thing as long as there's no complaining about the officials. I'm straight with you guys, just sick of the complaining about the officials. HERE COMES RAY ALLEN! EDIT: NICE HUSTLE BY FISHER
Boston just got someone back from the locker room, last time that happened, they pulled away. I'm just glad Ray Allen didn't do the whole dramatic jumping up and down in the tunnel.

Unforunately, we don't have home court since half the "fans" in the arena are half asleep during the NBA Finals
Boston just wants it more. Absolutely nobody on L.A. came to play. I think Mbenga is more game in his suit than anyone else on our team.

When we first acquired Gasol, did he use all these pump fakes and stutter steps? I thought he was a little more aggressive during the regular season...now he's just Kwame Brown with an offensive game.
So this off-season we must get rid of either Walton or Radmanovic, and as much as I have supported him, it's going to have to be Radman.
Why are these guys talking about Paul Pierce like he was an entirely insignificant player before the playoffs? I have read countless times from various Boston beat writers that Paul Pierce is the best pure offensive player the Celtics have ever had. And these are writers who were young fans when Havlicek was here and were writing when Bird was here.
I am so sick of seeing Luke Walton brick wide open jump shots. Why the hell doesn't Ariza get any playing time? I want like a 10 man rotation next year: Fisher/Farmar Kobe/Sasha Odom/Ariza Gasol/Turiaf Bynum/Mbenga
This is going to be tough, but there is too much time left... Kobe must be a bit tired now too, I wonder if he'll rest at all this half.

They are playing Pierce up to the national level (prime time television), not the local level (Boston beat writers).
