It’s Celtics-Lakers again in the NBA finals

Quote:
Boston’s new Big Three reached the NBA’s big stage. And just like their predecessors, they’ll share it with the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Celtics and Lakers are meeting again in the NBA finals, with Kobe and KG taking their place alongside the likes of Magic and Bird in the league’s most storied rivalry.

“It means everything to Boston fans,” Celtics forward Paul Pierce said. “To me, I think that’s what pretty much got me started in basketball. Growing up in Los Angeles, watching the Lakers and the Celtics, and it’s ironic, just being a Celtic, growing up, now you’re playing against the Lakers in the finals.

“It’s a dream come true, man, just thinking about it. I think that rivalry really revolutionized the game of basketball, and now I’m a part of it.”

It will be the 11th championship meeting between the franchises, with Boston winning eight of its NBA-best 16 titles against the Lakers. But Los Angeles won the last two, in 1985 and ‘87.

Personally, I want Boston to win the NBA Title. I feel that Garnett deserves to finally win that ring.
