Tired of hearing Lakers.......

are the only team in the finals with something to prove. I'll tell you this the celtics feel the lakers are holding their title. Yeah, the lakers won last year, but orlando was to young and never challenged the lakers mental toughness. It was far to easy for them last year. The celtics fate last year was determined last season when KG was pronounced out for the playoffs. If KG was healthy we make the finals last year. The celtics will never admit in publicly, but in that locker room they know the deal. So the celtics will be just as motivated.

Good Post, MIACeltsFan.

I agree with you. We have just as much, if not more, motivation. But while I am optimistic that we would've beaten LA last yr in the Finals, it certainly would've been tougher. we would've needed both KG and Powe, I think, to beat them - and even then it would've been tough.

I personnally like the fact that the media is only talking about Kobe's quest for his fifth ring and his will to get revenge against the Celtics.

I hope the Lakers are entitled in the same selfish goal of their leader because it will only hurt them if it's the case. I mean, it's a game played 5 on 5, yet they talk about "the Celtics" (plurial) and almost all the time refer to the Lakers as "Kobe, Kobe..." and "Kobe wants revenge and his 5th ring".

Keep making it a personal affair and our chances only improve more!
