Why I'm For The Celtics
Jun 06, 2008 | 5:53PM | report this
Ten reasons I'm for the Celtics in the finals.

I suspect Kobe's tattoos wash off.

I've got Boston in the "all sports" pool for 2008.

Now and zen I don't like Phil Jackson.

There are no lakes in LA, but there are Irishmen in Boston.

Because Ray Allen made the greatest escape from the Northwest since D.B. Cooper.

The Kwame Brown and picks for Pau Gasol trade was a put up job by the NBA.

To avenge the San Antonio Spurs.

Because Kevin Garnett hung in through all those years in Minneapolis.

I'd like to see Boston win 4-0 on a day Beckett doesn't pitch.

To see what all the writers and announcers will say after it's over.

Good stuff Dudski.

there are Irishmen in Los Angeles too, and they're Lakers fans.

When you bring up the trade, I wonder why you forgot to mention Marc Gasol and Javaris Crittenton, the two most important players in the deal for the Grizzlies.

It's OK if you like the Celtics but you have to get over the trade. You're going to worry yourself to death. LOL

I am so sick and tired of people keep saying the Gasol trade was so bad for Memphis.

They got what they wanted...cap space.

And Gasol isn't really that great! He hasn't played that particularly well in the playoff. He is still a second banana, who needs Kobe to lead him to the promise land.

Eggscellent list!
Laker fans outnumber Celtics fans here about 20-1, or are 'louder.'

duds, nicely done. I love it. There are lakes around LA, but they are man-made, as in MacArthur Park. Good point!

Celtics in 7!

If I may be so bold Dudski, I'd like to chime in.

Ahem.

#11-So we can hear a Celtic fan outside the arena say "It's ova! O-V-A. Ova!"

Wilson-The Timberwolves got Al Jefferson back in the deal. Jefferson averaged over 20 and 10 a game. What did Kwame Brown do in Memphis?

Wilson, T-wolves got future all-star Al Jefferson and solid sf/pf Ryan Gomes who are both better players than anything the Lakers gave up. Only Critteton has a shot at being a very good NBA player IMO

I dont care if the twolves got the son of jordan! Who is the better player? Thats my point! Without kg, are the celts in the finals? Gasol is important to the lakers, but not near as important as kg is to the celts! Again, memphis got what they wanted. Keep thinking what you want though.

bbing168-You may be right, but at a time when they had lost Bynum getting some height back in the lineup was not a bad idea.
