With their 108-102 victory, the beantown boys now moved up 2-0 in their epic best of seven championship series. If the tinseltown squad won game 2, the Celtics will then be in big trouble as the next 3 outings are scheduled at Staples Center, the Lakers pit. Game 2 was a very important game for the Lakers to win but they just blew it in the end. Now even if LA wins all those 3 games at home, the series moves back to TD Banknorth Garden for games 6 and 7, if necessary. The Celtics are just unbeatable at home. The Lakers certainly had their backs against the wall.
From the way things are right now, it looks like KG, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and the rest of the men in green are in for a long summer of celebration as the massive team buildup initiated by Danny Ainge will finally come to fruition and a 17th championship banner to hang over the rafters. Red Auerbach is itching to light up his cigars over there in the big sky!
