The match-up the NBA wanted has arrived, in the NBA Finals the historic battle between the Lakers and the Celtics is on. These 2 teams have waged war against each other 11 times before in the finals and now its time for the 12th time. It's the Boston 3 Party against the Kobe's, the big 3 for the Celtics are all going for their first ring, while Kobe is going for his 4th and trying to prove something to the entire world.
Kobe Bryant is on his way to the NBA Finals where he was been victorious 3 times but their is a big piece missing. Through out the 3 title Bryant has won, he was paired with the diesel, Shaquille O'neil, and now Kobe is on a quest to prove that he can win without the big Aristotle.
Kevin Garnett is trying to capture the one thing that has eluded him forever, the chance to play for the ring that he wishes to wear on his bare hands. Ray Allen is taking his first trip to the NBA Finals and he too, like Garnett and Paul Peirce are looking for some hardware. Pierce is the leader of the Celtics, he is the captain and the one everyone looks to to pace the team. Pierce has been rewarded with a great supporting cast and cohesively they have meshed together and are 1 step away from their ultimate goal.
So this will be the test of one man labeled as the best and by some the best ever, against three players who have had great careers yet lack the shiny ring to solidify their place in basketball history. It all starts Thursday June 5th, as another chapter to the Boston Celtic and Los Angeles Laker rivalry is written.
