Check this out. I know this is all coincedence, but it is almost as if the Celtics were fated to win.

Wikipedia says that the death of Len Bias put a curse and haunted the Celtics since. They never won the championship again.

With that in mind, here are some interesting things about the Celtics win this year:

  • Len Bias wore #34 in college. Paul Pierce is #34.
  • Celtics now won 17 NBA championships on June 17. Also, 17+17 = 34!
  • Celtics hadn't won a championship for 22 years. Len Bias tragically died at 22.

Wow. I know this could just be coincedence but...that's really something to think about.

I think it has a little more to do with adding two HoF players, then curses.

Last year, Paul Pierce was #34. The Celtics had the worst record in the NBA last year. :|

You can find numbers like that for any team that wins a championship. For example, Len Bias died on June 19th. Maybe the Celtics messed with the gods, and they were actually supposed to win on the 19th, so now they're cursed for another 19 years!!!!

wow, that's an interesting way to look at it. Sadly it did seem destined when they got KG and Ray Allen along with Paul Pierce already present..they were heavy favorites. why i say sadly? cus i'm a lakers fan :P but good for Boston, I'm a good sport and i give credit where credit's due. I dont like bad sports like the Red Sox when they won...i think it was 04 (?) but not the current title. so i have no respect for them. along with the patri-rats and bill bellicheat. (no offense but that's how i feel)
