    LeBron James better make sure his new MVP trophy isn’t missing. The Boston Celtics stole everything else.

    Rajon Rondo tied a team playoff record with 19 assists, Ray Allen(notes) scored 22 points and the Celtics, playing with renewed confidence and looking very dangerous despite their years, opened a 25-point lead in the fourth and then survived Cleveland’s comeback for a 104-86 victory on Monday night to even their semifinal series at 1-1.

    An underdog coming in, the Celtics left town with a split.

    “We did everything we set out to do,” Allen said. “We’ve talked all year about closing out games. When we do that, we’re pretty good.”

    After blowing an 11-point lead in the third quarter of Game 1, the Celtics almost squandered a much bigger one. They led 91-66 with 9:08 left before the Cavaliers, who have been outplayed in both games, scored 15 straight and pulled within 93-83 on James’ basket with 3:13 left.

    lol orlando are so weak man, all you have to do is 'defend' and they fall through easily. cleveland you've seen what they're made out of.

    only team that can beat the lakers in 6 is celtics. you better believe it. ;)

    exactly, so I'm not afraid of them at all, plus this year we have KG back, and pretty good bench (even though doc rarely uses it).

    You owned us so badly, but those times are gone.

    I give the Celtics all the credit in the world that year. But it ain't 2008.

    Time to live in the present now. ;]

    Yeah, speaking of "present". KG gift-wrapped one for HK and friends last year.
