CELTICS NBA CHAMPS!

Last night the Boston Celtics won there 17 NBA Championship in style pounding the Los Angleles Lakers into submission! The game had to have been one of the most lopsided victories in Finals history. Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen all had big nights to help the Celtics close out the Lakers. Ray Allen after missing most of the second half after getting smacked in the eye hit 7 three pointers. A few of those shots he was wide open with no one near him, the Lakers defense was horrible to say the least. The Celtics on the other hand played great Defense, Kobe Bryant was red hot in the first quarter but when no one else on the Lakers had a hot hand the Celtics put the clamp down on Kobe and made the other Lakers beat them, which of course they did not!

I think this series was over when the Celtics came from behind in game 4 in LA, the Lakers did a decent job in sending it to game 6 but the Celtics were just to tough especially in front of their home crowd. For me it was exciting to see the elation from Garnett, Pierce and Allen. They all wanted it so bad after being in the league for years and finally getting a championship was great to see. I think any fan of NBA basketball can appreciate that.

The Lakers and Celtics will both be tough oponents again next year but this year was clearly the Celtics year even though they stumbled out of the gates to start the playoffs they figured it out when they had to and got it done with sheer talent and determination. Congratulations Boston Celtics!

Tiger wins playoff but needs surgery.

Tigers Woods fresh off his big extra 19 holes victory will need season ending knee surgery with a torn ligament. He has been dealing with this injury for about 10 months but despite the pain has managed to win 9 of the 12 tournaments he played in, unbelievable! Woods went against his doctors advice and played in the US Open that required 91 holes of golf to win it. Tiger is truly a remarkable player and his name fits him well to say the least.

Woods just played in 7 tournaments worldwide this year and won 5 of them. His victory over Rocco Mediate in the US Open was nothing short of amazing to say the least. He never gives up and is an intimidating force on the golf course. But maybe a short breather for all the other golfers out there on the tour is going to be nice for them and Tiger....
