NBA Finals, East Coast Celtics, Jet Lagged by the Lakers

So you came to the west coast, or should I say left coast, with 2 chances to win the NBA Championship.

Celtics, you could not do it. You had the perfect storm going in the second quarter. You were up by 13 points, but you let it slip away.

Even though Kobe was the MVP of the Series, he did not hurt you. Ron Artest stuck it to you with 20 points and 5 steals, not to mention that you were offensively out rebounded by the Lakers who put a 23 knock on you.

Will someone from Boston tell me how you allowed the Lakers to outscore you by 17 points in the stretch, and gave them 17 opportunities to visit the charity stripe?

Oh, by the way, you only shot 23% for the game. Better luck next time, if there is a next time for you.

I am sure the Lakers will be back in the mix next season, but Celtics, again you have to get by the Cavs, and Magic. I don’t see it happening since 4 of your starting five might not be around, not to mention your coach. I MAKE THE CALL.
