NBA's Greatest Rivalry Brought Back To Life


Here we go again......On Christmas Day the Lakers put an end to the Celtics 19-0 win streak (Franchise best) and send them in a losing frenzy. During that lapse teams such as Cleveland Cavaliers and Orlando Magic have seen their fair share as leaders of the league. Surprisingly the Boston Celtics have slid to the number 4 position and 3rd in the East. All this time the Los Angeles Lakers bounce back and forth as the league leader while maintaining their dominance of the West. Going into last might's game the Lakers and Celtics were tied for first place. Celtics on a 12-0 win streak and Lakers on 4-0. What happened?....you ask.....well my dear the Lakers put an end to their win streak of course. What did you expect? BTW, last season the Celtics won the regular season series 2-0 and went on to beat them in the finals. This season the Lakers return the favor. Hmmmm....knowing the impact history have on sports especially the NBA maybe is they meet in the Finals and the Lakers will go on to win (well not if Lebron and his troops have anything to say about that). Mark this is also the first time since they got their hind parts (I will not say that word ...it's rude) whopped in game 6 of the Finals that the Lakers are back to TD Banknorth Garden and again they showed up and play.


The game was a physical one and they went head to head throughout the game. To prove how intense the clash between these 2 teams are, fight almost bruk. After Lamar Odom got fouled by Rajon Rondo while going after a loose ball. Kobe tried to help him up, bright and feisty Rondo push him and you know Kobe was not having that, they both got T-up (for those of you non-basketball people that means they both got a technical foul). I mean just because you won a Championship at his expense that gives you the right to try and push around one of the greatest basketball players in the world...come on Rondo don't hate the player, and you can't hate the game either, lol. Then check this Kevin Garnett fouled Lamar at the other end and Lamar gave him a friendly spot and Garnett turned back and got in his face....what was better is that Lamar did not backed down he was up toe to toe with one of the league best defender....Kobe came to his aid with Rondo and now he was like I got it this time. But that got him fired up, he only had 2 points in first half and end the game with 20 points. Oh yeah and KG (Kevin Garnett) was fouled with a little under 5 minutes remaining in the game. The Lakers handled their business in overtime when Lamar hit 2 big free throws with 16 seconds remaining in overtime, Lakers won 110-109. Yeah baby....I wonder what this will do to the Celtics?????? Will they return to the slumps like they did when the Lakers snap their 19 games winning streak. I hope they do....I am not cruel....I am an NBA fan, period....a little paranoid from time to time, lol. Ok I am obsess with the game, there you happy, I admit it, jeez. Anyways if they do then I am sure the Cavs will be delighted. I will be too cause I am dying to see Lebron and Kobe vie for the Championship.
