NBA: FINALS

Celtics/Lakers

 






REMEMBER FELLOW CELTICS FANS? June 17th, 08' Boston Beat L.A. By 39 To EARN The NBA TITLE.
"This is a team that's a little experienced now. We've won a championship, we have a little more under our belt as a basketball club, I think we were a little green when we came into the playoffs in 2008. As a team, we played with Gasol for 30-some games, part of a season. We lost Drew Bynum for the rest of the season. We were young in a lot of other spots. This team is mature now, experienced, We're much more cautious, I think, about what we were doing on the floor offensively, understanding better what we had to do to deal with the defense that they like to run &, I thought, just a little more prepared." -Lakers Coach Phil Jackson
"We don't have a smack-down mentality, You might have seen that with Garnett on Howard there in Boston where he was smacking Howard's arm & was finally called for an offensive foul. That's not our kind of team. We don't go out there to smack people around. We're a more resilient ballclub, We try to stay strong & play hard, but we're going to have to withstand some of that and we're going to have to play through it. That's the thing that seems to have been the penchant for this Boston team, is that you got to come out & play hard & be physical with the Lakers. We have some guys who are capable of playing to that style with Fisher & Ron Artest & obviously Kobe, but our big guys are going to have to stand up because that's basically what got the Celtics through Orlando. I don't like to play ball like that, I don't even like to think about those kind of things. Those things, I think, should be wiped out = flagrant fouls, technical fouls. It just means that the longer you've been in the playoffs, the more penalized you are. It seems like that's not a really good code right now. The league takes over a lot of what we do; our practices & how games are developed, we play @ 6 o'clock, 5 o'clock here on the West Coast, in the East Coast we play @ midnight or sometime late in the morning." -Lakers Coach Phil Jackson
CLEVELAND FANS, HERE IS A STAT TO LIGHTEN YOUR LITTLE HEADS IN YOU QUEEN JAMES SITUATION. 2 OF THE GREATEST LAKER PLAYERS IN HISTORY Jerry West & Elgin Baylor ARE Hall 0f Famers & Members 0f THE All-GALAXY Team. But IN THERE WHOLE CAREER They Never Won A Championship VS. The Celtics. Not 1 In 7 Tries For Baylor & 6 For West.
O' KOBE, KOBE, KOBE. 4 RINGS BUT THIS 1 IS ABOUT HISTORY AS A CERTIFIED LAKER. His Chance 2 Do What West & Baylor Could Not Do BY BEATING THE CELTICS IN A FINAL. HE COULD Join Magic & Kareem As A Laker Who Beat Boston FOR A RING. A NICE ADDITION To HIS ALREADY Complete Resume. 2 Years Ago HE COULD OF ALREADY HAVE DONE THIS & TRUST ME, He Knows it. NOW IT HIS 2nd TRY & He May Never Get This Chance Again.
 !!!GO CELTICS!!!
