Celtics did it

I was surprised it was such a blowout in Game 6, and that Kobe saved Game 5 with a wrap-around (defensive?) steal, but not that the Celtics won the series in less than seven. How about Ray? Some say he was MVP because of his consistent play, but remember how Paul won Game 4, all the grit and a big come back, 38 points, and the series-winning game (no team has ever came back from 3-1).

Next, how about Kobe? The Celtics used the “San Antonio Gambit”  by not letting him get to the line, and it worked. ESPN/ABC’s Van Gundy also pointed out how the Celts’ defense was sooooo much better than the Lakers’ and as everyone knows, championships begin there.

OK, now the season is over, I’m going to watch the women play, now. I am looking forward to the draft to see who Seattle/Oklahoma City drafts. The Western Conference gets even tougher next year: Oden will play in Portland and Bynam will be back for the Lakers, I’ll be surprised if any of them lead the league in defense like the Celts did all year, otherwise, the Celts can repeat.
