What a game! That’s all I can say about game 6 of the series between Celtics and Lakers for the 2008 NBA Finals which Boston won by 131 to 92 and buried the Lakers at the TD Banknorth Garden and acquired their first championship in 22 years.
Thanks to an outstanding display of team effort, the Celtics showed the Lakers why they were the best team in the NBA all season long.
Remember, it’s not the “big 3” anymore, is the “big 15” as everybody played their best basketball to seal an excellent year with championship rings.
It’s true, Paul Pierce was the MVP of the 2008 NBA Finals, but yesterday’s star was Rajon Rondo, he finished the game with 21 points and 6 incredible steals that just contributed to the humiliation suffered by LA yesterday at the Garden.
Now, after spending 13 years in the NBA and have received all possible honors an NBA player could get, Kevin Garnett crowned an incredible career with what he was missing: an NBA championship title, same things goes for Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. All 3 were asked after the game what they told each other the first time they got together at the Celtics locker room when Garnett and Allen were signed to complement Pierce, and the 3 all stars said the same things separately: “forget about the egos, let’s play along and win a championship” and so they did.
Congratulations to the 2008 NBA champions: the Boston Celtics.
