The Boston Celtics are the 2008 NBA Champions!!!

C's just have better D, thats all to it. Next year Lakers get it. If it was in a neutral site then it would have neen a better matchup.baseballboy6411

What are you talking about? The Celtics don't just have a "better D" they have a TEAM, by a lot.

Well the Lakers wouldn't have to change much, since playing at the Staple Center is pretty much a neutral site anyway.

Crowd is dead, they let the lead slip away and did nothing, my cousin told me everyone in the upper levels was booing and going crazy but you can't really hear that at the bottom..............X360PS3AMD05

Home court advantage is awarded to the best team during the regular season, why should that change? Watching games at a neutral site would be boring with crowds not as into it, plus the fact that filling up to 7 games could be difficult. The only sport that does that is football, and they only have a one game series.

OKAY I am over it.

and to think, before the season started everyone said the celtics wouldnt do anything because:

1. they wouldnt be able to play together with 3 stars
2. no bench
3. rondo sucks
4. too old
5. teams with the best record in the nba usually dont win the finals

when the lakers made it to the finals (before we even knew who was going to represent the east) we heard:

1. lakers are going to sweep any team out of the east
2. lakers are taking this series in 5
3. not only were they going to win the championship this year, but win for the next 2-3 years

now i expect to hear "if bynum played..." and the celtics are a dream team

im not bragging or rubbing it in anyones face but you cant sit there and say none of those things were said

WOOO...i told everyone the celtics were gonna win it from day one...this team had it all and is one of the most dominant teams since MJ and the bulls garnett, pierce, allen...the BIG 3 finally did it these were three guys coming together...none ever making it to the NBA finals and of course none ever winning a championship...so they came together with one goal in mind...WIN A RING!!! and they did just that and then some as they broke quite a few records this team was the WORST team last year and now...they literally went from worst to first...and yes it is true...ANYTHING can happen in the NBA, that's why i love it but let's not forget about the remainder of the team rajon rondo - this kid is only 22 and in his 2nd year in the NBA...everyone said that the celtics could not win a championship with him being their primary point guard...but over the year and tonight he proved them wrong...great job and kudos to him james posey - posey has got to bed one of my most favorite players ever...he's probably one of the best 6th man off the bench players ever...he has such poise and confidence and he puts his body on the line to get rebounds and steals...he's a great shooter and can easily knock a shot down from anywhere...he played a major role in the Finals this year just like he did in 2006 with the miami heat kendrick perkins - this guy plays with alot of emotions, the celtics needed a starting center as they had many big guys in mind, but he got the job done and was great defensively and often times offensively cassell, house, and pj brown - these are three great players that have been the NBA for quite a long time...two of them about to retire and one close to it...they all agreed to sign with the celtics for another go and they go just what they wanted...to be champions (cassell won one previously...this is his second) now for the BIG 3 KG - this man is a beast...he went through alot in minnesota, he has some ups (league MVP and making to the western conference finals) but none of that compared to what he feels tonight...he's finally a champion...what he felt in minnesota was just a tease, i think he is where he wants to be and where he wants to stay for the rest of his career ray ray - allen is just beatiful...i'm sorry but he is...lol...anyways...this man was in the same boat as KG...playing in seattle and not much to cheer for...he is probably the second greatest 3-point shooter in NBA history (right behind reggie miller) and he proved just that in the NBA finals as he broke the record for most 3 pointers in the finals with 22 and tied the record for the most threes in one NBA finals games with seven...he made a great case for finals MVP, but he did not get it...as it went to the next man down below.... paul pierce - wow...that's all i got to say...once again in the same boat as KG and ray ray...finally he has done it...he tried his hardest in boston for 10 years...lots of ups but alot more downs, he played amazing defense on kobe bryant (the league MVP) and shot at times even better than bryant...he went down with a leg injury in game one of the finals but came back stronger than ever...like i said, finally he has done it and is an NBA champion and also the Finals MVP anyone else who i have missed...they were surely great players as well...everyone played a key role and everyone is well deserving to be called champs CONGRATULATIONS TO THE 2007-08 BOSTON CELTICS...YOU ARE THE NBA CHAMPIONS!!!!fiercedeity901

The most dominant team since the Bulls? This Boston team has one won freaking championship, and now they are the most dominant team since Jordan and the Bulls? Give me a break. I'll admit they came to play today and blew LA out of the water, however it took them 7 games to beat Atlanta and 7 games to beat the Cavs. So don't get ahead of yourself, they won their 17th championship in style tonight, but I don't think they are the most dominant team since the Bulls.

If Bynum had played these Finals then the Lakers would have celebrated their Championship last Sunday. Next year we'll prove everyone wrong.

Just kidding, I'm so happy for Paul Pierce, KG, Ray Allen, Eddie House, Rondo, Perkins, Big Baby, Powe, PJ Brown (I was a big fan of his since he played quality ball for the Hornets) and the rest of the team. Except Scalabrine, to think that a lousy turd like him will carry a ring but so many greats never got one

Can't wait for the parade tommorrow, gonna be so much fun

Well when you speak like that I start to think that Kobe isn't this so called next MJ or really the best player in the league when you think about it. He hasn't been able to win it with out a great supporting cast. Just goes to show you that guys like MJ are in a class of their own, but then again he also had Pippen, Grant, Paxon, so when it comes down to it no matter how good you are you need a TEAM to win.

You always need a good supporting class to win a championship, especially against a good defensive team. Look at what happened to Lebron last year, I think Kobe can still win won without Shaq and maybe Bynum will be the guy they need, who knows.

Yes they are...I called it from the preseaon...call me a profit!!!
