Rivalry Revisited
The 2010 NBA finals is just two days away. It's not only a classic rivalry revisited, but a rematch from just two years ago when a hungrier more physical Boston team took it too a soft and intimidated Lakers team. I don't see that happening this time around. Make no mistake, the lakers want revenge and Kobe is thirsty to firmly cement his label as the greatest laker to ever play the game and top 5 players of all time. The Celtics are banged up and have come off two very tough, physical and emotionally draining series. Even though both teams have played the same amount of games in the playoffs, the Lakers just seemed to do it with more ease vs less physical opponents out West. Some might argue that Bostons Physicality will bother the Lakers, I say Boston runs out of gas, the Lakers supporting cast outplays Boston's and Kobe "the assassin" Bryant takes over...This one could get nasty, the Lake Show in 6..

Well said Trevor. I agree with your thoughts. Kobe is on a mission, and this is redemption year for him. That said, Paul Pierce will need more than one championship to go down as one of Beantown's greatest. We have an epic battle ready to begin!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Misha. Paul "the truth" Pierce is a warrior and wont go down without a fight, but this time around, The Black Mamba won't be denied. Looking forward to tomorrow's tip..
