Keys to what the Celtics have to do to win game 3.

In Game 3, the Celtics will have to get the the big ticket going both offensly and defensky , give the ball to Rajon Rondo in the open court and contiune to play solid defense . With these keys things being successful the Celtics will be successful because in game in game 2 kevin Garnett didn't play well , but Boston's defense and passing up the ball to Rondo made the Celtics be successful but game 3 will not be easy since the Lakers are going to contiune to find a solution to be success and there solution is going to be is move you feet on defense and not get silly offense fouls.It's clear that must of the teams that ties the series 1-1 in the NBA finals 88% percent of the teams won accoring to Camron Ghorbi 9 (a sports jouralist). Another person that will have to contribute is Paul Pierce because the truth can create his own shot and get himself and which will open jump shot for the Celtics . Good shot will come from Ray Allen , Kevin Garnett and etc. if it wasn't for Ray Allen strong shooting and Rajon Rondo that Celtics wouuld have been 2-0 losing to the Lakers because not everyone contributed in game 2 like how the normally would. With the big three and Rondo playing great the Lakers can have another upset losing to the Celtics but the celtics will have to contiune to control the pace of the game. With Ron Artest ( A solid forward defenser) guarding Paul Pierce the truth will have to look to get the ball more early to get has defense going more. Boston will have another issue to control which is controlling the bigs men on the boards because althrough the Celtics won game 2 the Lakers bigs Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum was hurting the Celtics awfully in the paints getting second chance options and phically men handling NBA players.

Will the lakers pull a shocker and sweep the Celtics or is Boston going to answer back ?

Ray Allen answered the Celtics call giving them nothing to work with in game 1 but game 2 was too much to handle . Ray Allen made a record in the NBA finals scoring seven straight  three-pointers vs the Lakers in there home under pressure to help tie the series 1-1 . Allen unbelievable shooting even surprised his coach Doc Rivers but to me it's normal since Ray Allen is the best shooter in the NBA. With Ray Allen shooting it both made Kobe Bryant get in foul trouble and tired, which was good since with Bryant in foul trouble it made him produce least. After Ray Allen cooled down from being a fireball in the first and second quarters.Rajon Rondo took over getting his fifth triple double 20 points 11 rebound and 11 assist. The Celtics won Game 2 103-94 from the Celtics strong defense and hot offense . Although the celtics didn't get much from the big ticket kevin garnett boston still played to the end. By Boston winning game 2 and tieing up the series 1-1 the Lakers and put in the same situation as 2004 series vs the pistons but only in this series that pistons won which was Kobe Bryant's first NBA finals lose in his career. Moreover, i think history is going to repeat itself with the Celtics winning three game straight at home. The biggest lose Kobe had that he will never forget is two years ago which lakers fan will never forget. The Lakers lose 131-92 Boston won. That was Bryant biggest lost and the big three career biggest success.

Game 1 of the Celtics vs the Lakers

The old rivalry has been renewed as the the Lakers vs. Celtics played  in the 2010 NBA finals for the championship. The feud between the Lakers vs. the Celtics started between Larry Bird and Magic Johnson but is back again with Paul Pierce vs Kobe Bryant. Game one the keys going into the game was to plays help defense , get the ball to Rajon Rondo in the open court, and  play together . Game one the Celtics did none of these keys which is why Boston were down early  by 15 . Kobe Bryant was focus going into this game because during the third quarter the comedian Chris Rock tried to make him laugh but Bryant wasn't going for it . Game one Bryant had 30 points on the Celtics as the Lakers take the lead over the Lakers. Against the Celtics defense it was shocking  because championship playoff teams play better defense than then what Boston did. Kobe got to the basket many times  and scored over the Celtics trees Kevin Garnett and Kendrick Perkins. With this win it proves that the Celtics were serious about getting there pay back from what the Celtics did to them in the 2008 playoffs. Playing the Lakers Boston were not giving a one hundred and ten percent energy as Orlando and the Cavs . Boston have to remind themselves that there are an under estimated team and people didn't think that the Celtics will go to the finals because win the Boston lose there too old when  they win there too experience. Furthermore, the Lakers won 102- 89 do to there huge bigs production and leadership from both Derick fisher and Kobe Bryant .

Two familar face at the playoffs after the Celtics beating lakers in 08 the lakers come back for another try to win the championship

In 2008 ,when the Celtics won the championship it was the Celtics 17 th  time  they won the championship . In 2010, the Celtics and Lakers is back in the same situation and is hoping to make there series much better. The keys things the Celtics can do to win to the series are keep Kobe under control and make every position difficult . Secondly the Celtics Bigs have to crash the broads hard and don't give up second chances  most important, Boston will just have to play  Celtics defense which made them win in 2008 and let Rajon Rondo lead the way as there Quarterback. As Rondo continue to get better instead of the Rondo and the other guys having  play of there the Big three the whole team will have to play off of Rajon Rondo energy because now Rondo can score and pass which make him an explosive combo guard for example in 2008 Rondo average 10.2 points but in 2010 Rondo now average 16.7 points which a big difference and make the Celtics a more effective team with everyone contributing to the team. Although the Boston might be old Boston is a very experience team that been through many situations and is able to get themselves out of. Lakers is a team the stepped up and been a much better team after in 2007 when Kobe had demanded trade from the lakers Kobe Bryant even meeted with Lakers owner Jerry Buss and told the owner that he will like to leave but the Lakers didn't want a 21.26 million dollar star player the leave the Lakers. So to try to keep him  the Lakers acquired Pau Gasol  from the Memphis Grizzles . With this trade the Lakers were able to keep Kobe Bryant and go to the Finals and the face the Celtics.

The Eastern Conference finals the next step for either orlando or the celtics to win the championship

The Orlando Magic's entered a series that is much more touchier then there other opponent's that they faced . Magic's entered the eastern conference finals with a numerous of conference since they sweep two teams 4-0  Atlanta and the Bobcats which are two teams that continues to get better every year. The Celtics pulled of an upset to many people knocking out the top seed Cavs in game 6. With the Orlando Magic's sweeping to teams every one thought the Celtics had no way of winning since Howard was showing why he  wants to be the best big man in the league. What people didn't know was if Boston can manage to control Shaq in the post then  Dwight Howard will be in trouble because Shaq is big and stronger than Howard . Game one the Celtics came out fighting hard and getting on the floor for every loose ball which later lead to the magic's first lose in the NBA playoffs. Celtics won 92 -88. Boston  got a double digit lead early in the game. Orlando tried to make a run but fell shorts because time ran out. To start of game 2 the Magic's tried to finish were they  lifted off  but Paul Pierce also known as the truth put the Celtics of his back and carried them to victory winning game 2 by three 95-92.

Game 3 , after getting two wins on the road in Orlando's house Boston is hoping to go home and finish of the series . The Celtics  is moving up slowly getting closer to there second NBA finals in three years . Boston goes home and blows  out the the Magic's 94 -71 . Right now the Magic's doesn't   even want to fight back there not showing no energy proving why there the top team in the east. Rajon Rondo being the Quarterback the leader for the Celtics helps Boston win by getting a double - double . In post game conference reporters ask Nelson the Orlando Magic's spark plug what is he going to do with his team down 3-0 . Nelson said "i am going to be more aggressive by getting into the paint and open the passing line for not only Howard but for Reddick as well since JJ Reddick is the Magic's main scorer off the bench. Nelson was serious about his comments as they magic's win game 4  96 -92 in overtime to help not to force elmation.

Can the Suns equal out with the lakers big ? Will this series even be from to watxh let's see what kobe will do

The Suns and the Lakers both enter the western conference finals with many questions. Some of these questions are can Kobe continue to perform greatest with having so many injury's ? ( such as the broken index fingers , missed up knee and a sprained ankle) Can Byum be explosive on the lower block ? If all these questions are a yes then the Lakers will be able to sweep the suns but , the Suns can also fight as well. For Example Steve Nash can hurt the Los Anglos Lakers in so many ways ( With his pick and roll , three pointers and etc).The Phoenix Suns also have a strong bench with Goran Dragic stepping up into difficult tasks , Channing Frye and Jared Dudley being the three points specialist.Moreover, the Suns two top scores Jason Richardson ( who can catch a fever any time and a master the game of basketball), Amar'e Stoudemire who is a fireball in the paint.

Game one Kobe came out strong scoring 40 to lead his Lakers to a win. Kobe had a play a solid game since many people thought that with all his injury's he will get slowed down and with Grant Hill being a strong defense none like ron Artest defense but a strong kobe will get locked up. But hey that's what everyone say to Kobe Bryant.Many people was happy with a suns bench but they didn't know the lakers have a bench as well Kobe bryant didn't do the the work since Odom had 19 points and 19 rebounds of the bench which a major performance that phil jackson will love to see all the time. Lakers won game one 128-107. First game in the series Bryant scores game 2 he assist having 13 assist a playoff career high. Kobe's 13 help put 5 other Lakers in double figures . Pau gasol led the way with 29 points wining 124-112.

What happen Hawks ?

Coming into the Eastern Conference finals Orlando beat the Hawks 3-1 in the regular season. However, people thought that the Hawks will play a little more defense and show the reason why they want to win a championship. The Atlanta Hawks haven't been to the Eastern Conference finals in a while and is hoping not to get eliminated early. Game one Magic took a easy lead in there series beating the Hawks 114-71. Moreover, most likely the Magic's game plan was to get the ball to Dwight Howard . This game plan was a start idea since Howard had 20 points and 12 rebounds his first double - double of the playoffs .
Game two Dwight Howard didn't cool down from game one although he started off the game slow he still finish the game with 29 points. At halftime the Magic's were down 57-49l. The Hawks came out fighting as they got big baskets from the key players .Such as Josh Smith , Al Horford and Jamal Crawford . But this still wasn't enough as the orlando majic powerhouse taking flight and controlling the paint on both side of the court. Vince Carter and Nelson also give in some huge baskets to put orlando on top after trailing in half - time which made orlando win 112-98.
After loosing focus in game 2 since they were trialing . Orlando took over the series winning game three and four in double . The Atlanta Hawks tried to fight back but the Magic's size and strength bulled the Hawks bigs both on the boards and in scoring. Orlando won 105-75 do to there intensive defense holding the Magic's to 35 percents shooting which is very poor for an NBA team. Game four orlando made it look easy beating the Hawks 98-84 with all five starters in double figures.

Boston Celtics vs. Cleveland Cavaliers

The Celtics vs the Cavaliers were the most interesting series in the conference finals. Every team got swiped other than the Cleveland Cavaliers . Although  the Boston  Celtics came out  strong the Cavs still wanted to fight. In the regular season people thought that with the Cavssweeping every team that the series would have been a blow out but, the Celtics proved everyone wrong by going back to there old defense which is help defense.  The Boston's defense is a major factor in this series since they have to hold off a star players like the king LebronJames. In Game one the Cavs had Paul Pierce (the Celtics caption) watch a numerous of film on how to guard James. Pierce did a solid job on  James holding him to 8-21 in game 4 , 3-14 in game 5 and 7-18 in game 6 which are some of James worst numbers.  People thought that late in the series James would have wake up and demand the ball and get more aggressive but instead James continue to try to get his team into the game although there were losing. Coming into the conference finals with the Boston Celtics vs the Cleveland Cavaliers the Celtics haselimated the the Cavs in 2008 in seven people figure the Cavaliers will be looking for payback. The Cavs did get a wake up call by coming out and winning game one 101 -93 in there house which was a great convince but, wasn't enough to beat the Celtics. Boston win game one 104 -86 with Rajon Rondo ties a franchise playoffs record with a career high 19 assists to send the series back to Boston tied 1-1.  In the game three the Cavs fire power Lebron James was on firing fire Scoring 21 first quarter points and finishing the game with 35 points. James had got an elbow injury in game three and is not giving no excuses about not playing the his game his just taking what defense is giving him and putting the points on the score broad. After game three the Celtics took over the series by continuing to fight and play there defense.

Lakers vs the Jazz

The Lakers swept the Jazz 4-0 because of there depth and size over the Utah Jazz. In the series Utah were upset since a numerous of there were injured and sore from both the regular season and the first round in the playoffs. In the post-game meeting reports quote Devon Williams saying " just because we have a few injured didn't mean that we didn't come to fight." Williams were true since he step in his contribution to the team to a level that players wish they wouldn't have got on his awful said. Devon Williams in the playoffs average a double -double 24.3 points and 10.2 assist.Jazz center Okur got injured with a torn Achilles and couldn't play for the rest of the playoffs . With this injury C.J miles and

Kyryllo Feseniko were able the get allot of playing .But this still wasn't enough as Kobe took over game one through four with major scoring.Controlling the game in every area. I mean really who wouldn't think that Kobe will not take over at some point because it is his team and when his team is not playing well he puts his team on his back and lead the way to victory. I will just kill him greatness since he preforms like greatness versus the jazz. Game three Kobe lead the way with 35 points trying to sweep to the jazz . Game 4 jazz started off the game with a numerous of energy in there house but Lakers came back playing the Lakers game which is a slow half-court game where the Lakers can operate there Bigs. The Lakers power-house Gasol were to much to handle on the lower block with Boozer guarding him. It an match up nightmare that boozer wasn't ready for. Lakers extended there season and hope to go the champship to win Kobe's third ring.

The Goran Dragic Show: 26 points vs Spurs (05.07.2010) WCSF Game 3

The Conference ( Sun vs Spurs )

The Suns pull a shocker sweeping the Spurs 4-0 . People thought that although San Antonia is an old they will still get the job done with Manu Ginobii contributing big . I would have never thought the Spurs legs would have died out after the first round but you know what they say it's either win or go home. The Suns ride the hot hand there point guard Steve Nash as he lead the way with 33 points and 10 assist. People will never think that Nash will have more points then assist but Suns needed a strong to get comfortable in the Semi finals of the playoffs. The Suns where the underdog when it came to the Spurs since in the last 5 playoffs appearance the Spurs has been the team that eliminated the Suns each time. With a solid team effort the Suns beat San Antonio 111-102 . Game 2 there were a numerous of argument on sports center talking about calling the Suns ( Los Suns ) because the NBA wanted to move the Suns the Los Anglous . With all the arguing the Phoenix Suns still went and perform like it was game 7 . When an major performance from there power-house Amar'e Stoudemire the Suns put the Spurs in a hole 0-2. Although steve nash got has got a beating from his opposing team Nash still lead has team to a win which show his love for basketball and his talent because Nash shot the ball with one eye in game one . Game three the suns not only got points from the starters but there bench also stepped up as Goran Dragic had 23 which help them got an 18 points lead. Many people believed in Dragic after this game since Dragic was never a scorer he was always the person that passes the ball but in the 2009 - 2010 season Dragic has got a numerous of confidence coming into the season and into the playoffs this shows being around Nash for a while and seeing his great leadership makes many younger points guard step up.

What people didn't know was the Boston Celtics were just waiting for the post. Coach of the Boston Celtics Doc Rivers said , " We don't care about having the best record .

NBA playoffs

The NBA playoffs started off with a bang because people should know the playoffs are the home of the NBA finals . I mean really , who do think is going to win the NBA championship the Lakers, Cavs, Nuggets, Boston , Atlanta ,Bucks or Thunder. The top teams from both east and west conferences are really fighting hard because it's either win or go home. The defending champions LA Lakers started out there series 2-0 Lakers leading . Many People thought that the thunder lead by Kevin Durant ( this year's NBA youngest scoring champion) and Russel Westbrook was just going to give up. Instead they won the next game home 96 to 108 . OKC was then on a roll and won the game 4 110-89 . The LA Lakers felt ashamed to know the the youngest team in the league is about to take them to game 6. Laker then went on a win streak to knock off the thunder . LA Lakers won game 5 111-87 and game 6 95 - 94 .
