    And that happens to a so-called best defensive teams for a decade (?) in regular season according to John Hollinger's metrics. LOL! :rolleyes:

    I know, hence my first post. But Kobe hasn't done much yet and we know that will change, KG is in foul trouble & doesn't look sharp, PP doesn't look sharp and the Celts lack of cohesion and energy to start this game is very troubling. Their offense is collapsing like it did in earlier rounds. I said before this series started that if that happened, the Lakers would leave them in dust with huge runs.

    An new NBA Finals record set with a 21 point end of 1st quarter lead. Unlike last game, I don't expect the Celts to come back and make it a close game.

    This thing could snowball the rest of the series.

    f4p, time for you to start feeling good.

    Man, I gonna give PJ for playing Ariza in the Finals. It'll only happen with PJ and very few other coaches.

    Leon Powe is the true low post player for the Celtics, not KG. :D

    The best thing about this series so far is JVG.

    The point is killing Boston, LA showing them no respect at all.

    these finals have two teams that are VERY inconsistant. only thing that's going for this finals is, of course the rivalry, and kobe/paul/kg.

    this final isn't close to being the top 20.

    the celtics just dodged some bullets leaving vujacic, kobe, and vlad rad wide open for 3 straight 3's and now are back within 19.

    kobe has more steals and assists and as many rebounds as he has points so far. weird game so far.

    kobe better start doing some work. 0 POINTS. 6 assits is fine but he can get that anytime.

    gasol actually catches a pass for once and finishes it and1. he hasn't done anything that wasn't hand fed to him but at least he's somewhat active.
