Celtics 103, Lakers 94 (Series tied 1-1)
“Whenever we lose a game, we’re too old, and whenever we win a game, we won because we have great experience.” – Doc Rivers after Game 1

After watching Game 2 in LA, I’m going to have to agree with the stereotype here. The Celtics won this game because of their experience. Boston did not look overmatched like they did last game. They used what they have learned in years past. They also had Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen – Game 2 difference makers.
Before the …

Lakers 102, Celtics 89 (Lakers lead 1-0)

Going into Game 1 of the 2010 NBA Finals, we knew a couple of things: 1) There would be plenty of celebrities in the Staples Center crowd, and 2) Kobe & Co. was on a mission and the Celtics had to be prepared for a fight.
The Lakers held the lead for nearly the entire game thanks to a few disparities in style of play. Los Angeles was living in the paint. They not only scored a ton of buckets in the paint all game, …

Lakers 111, Suns 103 (Lakers win series 4-2)

I had quite a busy Friday and Saturday, so I fell asleep for most of this game. When I woke up, the Lakers had the game in hand early in the fourth quarter. I considered changing the channel, but then a barrage of Goran Dragic brought the Suns right back into this game, with the Suns getting within five points of the Lakers. At this point, with the crowd behind their backs, it looked like the Suns were going to come back and …

Boston 96, Orlando 84 (Celtics win series 4-2)
Can everybody calm down now? All of this nonsense about the momentum being changed, give me a break.

Boston went into this game with every Celtics’ fan looking for the best heart medicine at the nearest pharmaceutical and every media press stating how interesting this series has gotten. All hogwash after tonight. Slash that, this series was never interesting. Everybody should be watching the Suns/Lakers series anyway. Boston had this series in hand from the get go. The last two victories from Orlando were …

Lakers 103, Suns 101 (Lakers lead 3-2)
Going into this game, my thought process was:
“If the Suns lose this game, then they will not win this series. If the Lakers lose this game, they can still win this series.”

In other words, in my opinion, the Suns had to have this game. The Lakers, to me, are more than strong enough to come back from a 3-2 deficit. Fortunately the Lakers won’t have to worry about that as Ron Artest’s layup with time expiring puts the Lakers in kill position. This was …

Magic 113, Celtics 92 (Celtics lead 3-2)
To be totally honest, I am not surprised that the Magic, at home, came out focused to take Game 5 of this series. Dwight Howard looked ready to go as he scored 21 points, grabbed 10 rebounds, and blocked 5 shots.  The real key to this game was Jameer Nelson.  Nelson gave the Celtics a dose of their own medicine as he did his best impression of Rajon Rondo.  He cut his way into the defense finding his teammates for wide open threes.  Nelson …
