hahah Celtics is the best... the most remarkable comeback in NBA history.... WOOOT cetlcis ROCKSSSS;)

CeltIcS RoCkS

CELTICS

RULEZZZZ

i've been a lakers supporter. watching the game they played tonight.... it'll be an injustice if the celtics do not win the championship. blowing up a 24 point lead with the MVP not doing much later in the game will not win you the title. what a start but what a loss! they went out with a whimper. for the sake of better game and a strong team with good game, at this point i must say celtics have to win the title. unless lakers can stage an upset by winning the next 3 games, which is highly unlikely. i'm all for celtics for NBA 2008.

Lakers better start packing their stuff.

Who to blame now for the lose of Lakers in LA ?

Refrees...still made calls for Celtics ??

 

I could imagine the situation in LA locker room after loss in Game 4.

Greatest upset in NBA history.

Zen Master is way overrated !!

 

Go Celtics Go ...Beat Lakers in LA. 

We don't want game 6 in Boston.

GO CELTICS...MARVELOUS GAME. KEEP COMPETING ...3 DOWN..1 MORE TO GO.

I think Phil Jackson should resign and should not come back as a Lakers coach anymore.

Phil Jackson had 24 point lead that was blown and ended up in a loss to an inferior Celtics team. It took him 1 and 1/2 quaters to figure out what was going on. The post game interview of Pierce was clear that Cs were just competing, not trying to win the game.

Red Aubach competitor, Coach Jackson, does not deserve to be coach another year with this historic collapse of the Lakers. Ashamed I am. I am disgusted. I am angry. I feel like sh.t. I feel he does not deserve any credit. I am down. I am not with Phil Jackson anymore even though it is a nature of a game.

C'mon, blowing a 24 point lead to an inferior Celtics team !! Unrealistic, uncharacteristic !! 

And Kobe used a F word to Red Sox. Thats very sportsman like attitude !! Keep up Kobe !!

Shirish, I use an F-word to your Bo-Sux team all the time.  How is it "unsportsman like" if I say it to someone I ain't even competing with myself (and who plays a whole different animal)?  Maybe you should stick to playing board-games as you've apparantly screwed the whole meaning behind the word.

And yeah, all you fair weather Bean-Town fans, where da fugck were you guys when Boston was 24-58 last year?  Last year during every friggin game, Pierce and the Celts were being booed to no avail.  And now we have a band-wagon ala the Pied Piper of Hamilton's proportions taking place here??  hahahaa   Keep proving your stance of being stauch hypocrites and showing off that low sportsmanship morale.  No wonder, Beaners are losers and always will be!!

The way the lakers played last night's game, has to be the most disastrous performance ever by any team.  Kobe was guarded well and physically by the larger Pierce and Doc Rivers has my utmost respect for figuring out how to cover this scoring machine, defanging and making the Black Mamba's bite lack any venom.  Also the move to get Posey into the game and keeping him in, was applaudable.  And where were the rest of the Lakers, I ask?  C'mon, it was one superstar (Kobe), going against 3 good players of the Beaner's team.  With Kobe unable to do his part, the rest of the Lakers too seemed helpless...Just goes on to prove how great the Black Mamba is as he's been the one to solely carry his team.  He, IMO deserves as much a respect as a Magic or a Bird (someday in the future, Jordan status may follow...C'mon atleast Jordan had a Pippen and a Grant (later Rodman) on his side!!).  Going into next year and looking at the free-agent pool for 2008, Kobe deserves someone like Ben Gordon (if he can get back to the shape he was in with the Pistons).  That would be exactly what the Lakers need to win the 2009 title.

Also, witnessing Kobe's intensity to be the Best ever and his competitiveness for the past few years, I wonder if he gave Sasha Vujacic the same treatment in the locker-room that Jordan once gave Kerr for not making an easy play: A big fat black-eye!    That Vujacic cat deserves it real bad!!

However, all hope is not lost...I still believe!  If I could see Hillary Clinton being beat to the ground, anything is possible in this day and age!  Lets not get way outta hand before the Fat Lady sings!!  Go Lakerzzzz!

The worst performance from Lakers...could not bit even 24 lead.

CeltIcS RoCkS ,  GO CeltIcS Go

Samsara

I always said if the Celtics bench performs, Lakers have no chance.

Kudos to Posey and House. They wanted to hang on and compete but won.

Down 24 points...no problem.

Black mamba...no problem.

Zen master...no problem. 

GO CELTICS.....

Yep 2 records in NBA history were made last night..But I like the one with 24 points come back WIN.. 

One more game to go and BOSTON will have another championships!

Cheers!!!!

There is no doubt that the Celtics are the NBA 2007-08 champians. I underestimated the Celtics before. Paul Pierce has played this type of game before in Eastern conference finals few years back to upset the leading team the NETS. Even if they lose the next game 5, they will celebrate the champianship at home in game 6. Paul Pierce is final MVP.

I agree with Rusty.

There was no doubt in my mind that LA Lakers was the dominant team this year in NBA. Watching last night's game, espically 3rd quarter, I am ashamed to call myself a Lakers fan. How in the world, a team like Lakers blow their 24 points lead in the second half after playing such an impressive first half? After last night's game, I am convinced that Celtics deserve this year's champion ring. Go CELTICS, finish it up in LA LA Land.

Laker fans still complaining about the referee's? So what is your reason Celtics won this time? You said Lakers almost pulled up the biggest comeback in game 2, "oh snap" "Celtics just pulled off the biggest comeback in Game 4"

I find it funny how people said we booed Paul Pierce and the Celtics last year. You either have never been to a Celtic game in the garden or never been to North End on game day or just maybe you are confusing Celtic fans with Laker fans who booed at Kobe in the season opener.

Paul Pierce has always been a hero in the eyes of Celtics fans. Even in the toughest time he never ever openly asked for a trade. By the way last season he was out most of the season due to surgery so not sure how could we have ever booed him. Even when we lost 18 in a row last year after Tony Allen and Paul Pierce went down, fans still gave Kudos to the players for the effort becoz each and everyone of them played really hard. The fans knew our team was really bad but we didn't crumble like the Knicks or the Heat where players started pointing fingers. The only one people really talked bad about was Danny Ainge because of his trade decisions. I think people outside of Boston get that perception of fans because Analyst were talking trash about Boston last year when we only won 24 games. They assume just because analyst are talking bad the fans must hate the Celtics.

Please and I am really saying please don't comment on the "love of Boston fans for their teams". We have been written off on the Sports Analyst for years which people often mistake as fans not having passion for our sports teams. If you lived in Boston, gone to any sports bars or arena you will know the Boston fans have always stuck with their team through thick and thin. Now is our time so don't disgrace us by calling us bandwagon fans (like idiot Bibby, who had only played for the Kings which is a fairly new franchise and doesn't have history like the Celtics).

Just because you started seeing more of Boston teams on National TV after they got better doesn't mean the Boston fans just started following it......

all points noted. i am sure similar thoughts are echoing all over the web. lakers have indeed lost most supporters. no doubt they're a great team but not great enough to win the NBA. when you play like last night, you're kind of done and that too on the home court. it was mentioned how they nearly staged a comeback in game 2. hell yeah, celtics surely knows how to do it. for another history to be made, they need to win the next 3. not impossible but very unlikely. the series has to end @ staples so that a lesson is learned (by the lakers).

jobs

Great insight !!

Last night's game was very damaging to the Lakers organization as well as Phil Jackson.

 

Hoping that there will be no game 6.
