Celtics wins 17th NBA title with 131-92 rout of Lakers

On a new parquet floor below aging championship banners, the Boston Celtics won their 17th NBA title and a first one — at last — for Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen — their Big Three for a new generation.

After 22 long years, the NBA has gone green.

Once again Kobe choked. He is a great player but doesn't have that inner will to know when his teammates are not holding there own and say it is time for me to take control and win. Jordan would have never let this happen. Boston was dancing on the chairs well before the game had ended. Kobe just put his tail between his legs and gave up. I know he doesn't like to be compared to MJ. but he needs to find out what drove him and maybe it will rub off for next year. I think he needs to get out of LA. The Bulls would make a good fit and maybe some of that Mana will rub off on him. This was his chance to say I didn't need Shaq but he needed something tonite.

Kobe did not choke. There is no way one player can beat such a great team like that, unless we go back a few years during Jordan's time. Saying crap like is foolish. Suck it up and give some credit to the Celtics.

Jordan himself couldn't have beat this team. And about another comment Kobe knows exactly when to take over but when u see 3 and 4 guys you cant do it yourself you need your teamates to step up and they didnt. I give boston all kinds of credit they did what they were supposed to do win the titile. I mean even if kobe would have had 40 they still would have lost because bostons starters were all on their games last night it was amazing to watch and disapointing because this was not the lakers ive been watchin their ball movement stopped and they all were watchin kobe again. I didnt like how long rivers played his starters tho that game was over way b4 4 min left but hey its a game so whatever. I thought ray allen prob deserved the mvp as much as pierce because allen was constant througout this series but they both deserved it. Im a lakers fan explicit and im still here because i give props where its due maybe next year when we are healthy we can give you guys a better run we really missed bynum in this series because we needed him in the paint on both ends. Gasol would play better at his nat PF. But boston did what they are supposed to do the won baby. Im happy for garnett he has always been one of my fav players. I was disapointed when boston got him because i wanted him in LA because he and Kobe are good friends off the court so I think they would have been amazing togeather. Well thats all i got to say besides Go Lakers Im a diehard so i will always be here.

Make all the excuses you want, and Lakers fans will, but the Lakers lacked the competitive drive the Celtics exhibited from start to finish in this series

Just spent some time down in Mexico with Manu Ginobili. He didn't watch a single game. In fact, he just hung out at the pool with some hotty, nice guy. BTW, The Celtics were the better team.
