    Nah, I'm not completely. If they put Ariza on Allen and Kobe on Pierce from the 1st quarter on, they can still win. I'm not that sold on the Celtics, still. It's doubtful, but who knows. All they've gotta do is get 2 in a row. They've shown they can dominate them when the refs allow them to play, they just have to stay awake.

    UTD - How is it an excuse? The Lakers already beat the 2nd best team in the NBA. They were the favorites. Even with key injuries going in. They're just playing badly at the wrong time. The Celtics on the other hand are playing their best at the RIGHT time. It's not a knock.

    To call your team not as hungry in the damn NBA Finals is either denial or a fairly pathetic excuse for not winning a series. Why is it so difficult to say that Boston has a better overall squad? I'm not even saying it is (I picked Lakers in 7 from the outset), but I don't believe it's out of the question to say Boston has a better squad, *** for tat.

    When a team stands around and watches the other get loose balls and rebounds right beside you, that's what I consider it. Boston isn't walking around leaving guys wide open and watching rebounds fall right beside them.
    And no. They do not have the better squad. They can barely run with the Cavs and Hawks. Sorry.

    Hustle beats talent most of the time. And that is not an excuse for talent.

    It's amazing how you can post this logic about one sport, but not another.

    The C's are the best and Lakers are 2nd.

    You can't use playing badly as a reason in the nba finals. This is when players either step up or they don't. Maybe the lakers are a better team based on just talent but unfortunately for them it takes a lot more than skill to win nba finals. I believe the only guys on their team who are championship caliber players are kobe and fisher. At the end of the game last night with kobe not scoring the other guys had no idea what to do and no one wanted to step up and win the game.

    Celtics are now 5-1 against the Lakers. No fluke.
