Game Six Twitters


The Celtics are WORLD CHAMPIONS!  And what a way to do it with a thirty nine point beat down.  In a league that has become all about superstars and offense, the Celtics snatched the title the old fashioned way with team basketball, focused defense, and consistent play from a deep bench.  Other thoughts:

-  Most touching moment of the night had to be KG to Bill Russell:  "I hope I made you proud, man."

-  Ray Allen ties an NBA finals record with 7 three pointers.  Although Pierce walked away with the MVP, Jesus was a consistent force from start to finish of this series

-  Eddie's skillz, P.J. Brown's toughness, Powe's hustle, even a Big Baby sighting.  How much fun is the Celtic's bench?

-  Talk about defensive shut down:  Celtics had more steals than the Lakers had field goals in the first half.

-  Coming soon to TBS, the new situational comedy "Pau Gasol and the Eurosofties".  Sample bit of dialogue:

Gasol:  Did you see flop to court?  Me play defense.

Vujabitch:  Yes!  Yes!  Me take shot.  Three balls for Sasha.  

Radmanovich:  I must break you.
-  Red Auerbach's all time final record remains intact.  It was a long time coming, but The Truth reigns supreme.


-  Are you ready for a parade?
