"Hands off the trophy!" said Tommy on CSN after the the Celtics stunned the Lakers in game #4. He knows it's bad to take any win, or Championship, for granted. The character of game 6 is still a mystery, and it will be until it's almost over. So going into game 6 is an exercise in openmindedness and restraint. The Celtics need to focus on playing their best game, as all champions do, and let the chips fall where they may. Victory is attracted to the team that plays with the most heart and soul, and a team with any brains at all knows better than to take anything for granted. Overconfidence creates an atmosphere ripe for theft. Let us all take the Lakers seriously and give thanks that we've come this far.
