Paul Pierce celebrates Celtics 2008 NBA ChampionshipThe Boston Celtics just won the NBA championship against in the Los Angeles Lakers! The Finals Series played out – and ended – spectacularly. The Celtics in Game 4 pulled off the biggest comeback in any NBA Finals game ever, and this final Game 6 was a complete dismantling! I love it when my team trounces… because it lets me enjoy the game instead of getting nervous… and there was much to enjoy last night. The Celts were so ahead by the fourth quarter that everyone could sit back, relax and “watch the show”… smooth like jazz!

The “Big Three” of Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, and team captain Paul Pierce proved an unstoppable force this season in the NBA. I have waited since the 80′s to see my team back in its glory. Indeed, with all the flash-slappy style of play since the 90′s I haven’t watched much pro ball… but this whole series felt like a nostalgic blast from the parquet past. What a treat… and what a sweet victory! :-)

From FoxSports:

Boston Celtics claimed their 17th NBA title, and first in 22 years, with a stunning 131-92 blowout over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday.

On a new parquet floor below aging championship banners, the Celtics won the first title — at last — for Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen — their Big Three for a new generation.

Lifted by ear-splitting chants of “Beat L.A.” from their adoring crowd, which included Boston greats Bill Russell, John Havlicek and JoJo White, the Celtics concluded a shocking rebound of a season with a resounding win over the Lakers in Game 6.
