One more. That's all that has to be on the minds of the Boston Celtics right now. One more, until title 18.  The Boston Celtics did themselves a huge favor tonight by defeating the Los Angeles Lakers 92-86. In my opinion, they did what they had to do in Boston, they took two out of three and now have two chances to win one game going back to Cali.  Boston looked sharped tonight ...

Two years ago, when the Los Angeles Lakers met the Boston Celtics in the NBA finals,   Kobe Bryant stated in a post game interview that he felt that he and his teammates had wet the bed after blowing the largest first quarter lead in finals history and eventually losing Game Four of the series.  The Celtics went on to win the series four games to two.   ...

  Can we please give all the Lamar Odom being the key to a Lakers’ victory a rest? I mean, really, Lamar is a great player but come on. We’re talking about a guy coming off the bench, even if he basically gets starter minutes over the course of a game.   It really is amazing to me that everyone links Lamar to a repeat, like this one player, on a team of ...

So first of all I want to send my condolences to all the Lakers fans. Second of all I would like to say that the run the Celtics have gone on is legendary. Boston was predicted to struggle with Miami in the first round. They handled the Heat four games to one. In the second round King LeBron fell to the C's in six, resulting in one of the bigger upsets in recent ...

After attending my first game at the "Gahden" tonight, I was in shock. Never before other than a game at Fenway, have I experienced such emotion and overall passion for a sport. I don't know whether it was the fans or the energy from the players, but tonight was special. Now I haven't been to every sports game at every sports complex in the world, but tonight in Boston, something ...

All throughout the regular season, the Celtics, even when they won, rarely did it in easy fashion.  Game Five of the NBA Finals was a flashback to those types of efforts, as holding on describes perfectly what Boston did on its way to the 92-86 victory. The Celtics now lead the series 3-2 with the Finals headed back to Los Angeles for Game Six on Tuesday night. For much of the ...

Looking at the list of hyped prospects entering the 2010-11 NBA season, which 10 players will come into league with the most question marks and doubts? From Baylor’s Ekpe Udoh, to Butler’s Gordon Hayward, to Kentucky’s John Wall, there’s a plethora of choices when it comes to exactly who’s got the most to prove next season as a pro. Especially when it comes to the younger—and expected lottery pick—players in this summer’s ...

As fans, sometimes you look back at what your favorite team has done on draft night and wonder what might have been if only the general manager had drafted a different player. The right player can transform a team to a playoff contender. Adding the right player can also make a playoff contender into a NBA champion. The difficulty of course is that no one has a perfect crystal ...

Phil Jackson has reached an unparalleled 14 NBA Finals—one as a player and 13 as head coach. Jackson first won a title in 1973 as a sixth man for the New York Knicks. The Knicks beat the Lakers 4-1. This was the beginning of Jackson's love for the title series. As head coach for the Bulls he went to the ...

Glen "Big Baby" Davis tilted his head back and roared, drool dripping down his chin, Nate Robinson dangling from his neck. This one moment of pure emotion summed up the fourth quarter of Boston's 96-89 victory to perfection. Now, with the finals even at two games apiece and games six and seven in the Staples Center, the pressure is on sqaurely Boston to produce in game five. Here are five ...
