good game Lakers. and a big congrats to Celtics.

For the 17th time in franchise history, the Boston Celtics are NBA Champions.

"After the game, Paul Pierce was named Finals MVP. He had a modest outing in Game 6, but stood out plenty in the previous five games to deserve the honor. Pierce averaged 21.8 points and 6.3 assists per game as he, Garnett and Allen captured the first NBA titles of their long, accomplished, respective careers."

Being a fan of the Lakers since elemtary, I was disappointed by their gameplay. Who wouldn't right? Lakers have been winning ever since I became a fan of their team, ever since Kobe and Shaq were still the duo hardcore of Lakers. You know, if Lakers were to win this year's title, it would've been Kobe Bryant to be MVP. But again, their team lost by 39 points in Game 6. It's not about Kobe Bryant this time, it's about the whole team, not doing that good enough to prove that they can win this year's title against Boston Celtics (with Keven Garnett, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce on this team).



Anyway, that's just what I think. Now back to the topic, it was a final score of 131-92. A 39 point lead from the Celtics. Wow. Well, even though the Lakers didn't win this year's title, I'm still a Lakers fan. There's still next year. Go Lakers! And a Big Congratulations to Boston Celtics for a great game against the LA Lakers this season hehe =)

go Lakers!!=)

Lakers won game 5 vs. Celtics with a score of 103-98. Both teams are good. But I'm a Lakers fan since elementary, where Kobe and Shaq were still the hardcore duo of Lakers. Somehow, I believe that the Lakers will make it to game 7.

Ok, enough with the drama. Now for game 6, this may be one of the advantages of the Celtics' due to the game which will be held at their homecourt at Boston.

At the very least, there is a game 6. Now I can't wait to watch game 6 haha

Go Lakers!!=)

Lakers won Game 3 of NBA Finals 87-81

"Somewhere in the mess of an NBA Finals game, after the fouls finished stacking up alongside the airballs and missed free throws, a clear, indelible image finally emerged. The Lakers weren't dead yet.

It sure looked as if they were done, but it was merely a deception, an illusion, as Phil Jackson might call it, the Lakers answering three uninspired quarters with a lasting fourth-quarter push in an 87-81 Game 3 victory Tuesday at Staples Center." - NBA.com



Lakers won Game 3 with a score of 87 versus Celtics who lost by 6 points with a score of 81. Pretty tight game. But I knew the Lakers would rise up after losing Game 2. Can't wait for Game 4 haha Go Lakers!! =)

Lakers won..'with effort'!

(April 27, 2007) NBA Playoffs 2007: Game 3 - Los Angeles Lakers vs. Phoenix Suns

It was a close game but the Lakers won! Kobe summed up Game 3's 95-89 win over Phoenix perfectly, saying the team stepped up and finally gave a complete effort, speeding up the heat. Bryant said, "It was effort. You can go over execution and X's and O's all you want. What you have to have is effort."

The Lakers won by Kobe's last 6pts., total of 45pts. (the highest points of the game). Now that's what I'm talking about! And just recently, his jersey no longer has the #8 attached to it, it's #24..since he said that he wanted a new number for the second half of his career, and that 24 was his first H.S.number (..and the story goes on). Although his jersey number has been changed, he's still one of my (first - all time) favorite NBA player..Go Kobe! \m/

Miami Heat wins NBA Finals 2006!

They are mostly going to remember the finish.


They will inevitably remember that 2-0 lead Nowitzki's Dallas Mavericks seized in their first NBA Finals and everything taken away from them thereafter by the new, worthy champs from Miami.

What happened there?! If the Mavs had already won Game 3, the series is pretty much over! In the video below is the last 10 seconds of their Game 6 before the win. Even though they gave Jason Terry a chance to force OT with shooting a 3, does it look like or it just looked like he lost his balance because of a foul that wasn't called as one?! At the end, it wasn't called as a foul. I guess it was the Mavs who couldn't keep up. "Maybe they were starting to celebrate too early.."(as they said from Game 3) Tsk, tsk..problems with Mavs from the start of Game 3. They should've won their 4th victory..

By Game 6, Miami really was an 'everybody' as they would say it. The Mavs weren't simply dealing with their Dwyane Wade problems. Instead, they had Alonzo Mourning problems, Udonis Haslem problems, and even Antoine Walker problems. It looked like Miami won The Finals this year with Dwayne Wade (Jersey #3) as their MVP! (Fact: Dwayne Wade is the 5th youngest MVP in the NBA Finals!)Miami won against the Dallas leading with a 95-92 score.

"You all witnessed it," Riley said. "You all watched it. Players like that are very hard to come by, and to watch them grow right in front of you ... I've never had a player (Dwayne Wade) like this." (Practice makes Perfect!)

To sum it up, the Mavs, at 2-0 up and 89-76 ahead in Game 3, were suppose to win. But it looks like the farther away they fell from wining since Dallas' confidence problems had them snowballed. I don't think when the season started anybody picked Dallas and Miami to be in the Finals. Would you believe it? Unbelievable! The Miami Heat managed to put it together at the right time and prove the doubters wrong. Miami has beaten the Bulls, Nets and Pistons to reach the Finals. Then after falling into a 2-0 series against the Mavs, the Heat won 4 straight games to claim their first NBA title in franchise history. Expect the unexpected. Anyways, cheers to the Miami Heat for winning this year's season!
