Apparently the Celtics didn't have any highlights ...

Was looking for the game recap video at NBA.com ... and here's what I get:

Lebron blocks Rondo
Lebron leads all scorers at half-time
Lebron throws an alley-oop to Jamario Moon
Lebron blocks Ray, hits a 3

Does this seem a bit one-sided?

I'd rather win then be on sports center, but still it would be nice to see some C's highlights mixed in there. 

Heck -- ESPN didn't show any of Pierce's 4th quarter shots in it's video recap.  For those of us w/o cable it'd be nice to see the Captain getting it done.

Regardless ... Great Win.  Go C's.

Cheers!

Let's just say our highlight is the win.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

Agreed, our highlight is located on the top line of the boxscore.  Absolutely fine with me.

ESPN has some Celtics plays in there. Though honestly complaining about the post game highlight selection in a game we won ::)?

Some day they'll have a bunch of highlights of Lebron in the finals and then at the end they'll be like "Oh and this is when they gave the trophy to the other team"

It'll probably by Duncan or something

Nothing new and I'm not the least bit surprised, (though sickened) ... the NBA has it's players to stroke, LeBron at the top of the list with Kobe ... followed by Dwight Howard, CP3, D-Wade, Tim Duncan, Yao Ming, (when he's healthy), Barron Davis, Gilbert Arenas, (when he's healthy), etc. ... the league has an agenda which is followed very closely by the officials and the press ... get used to it. As long as we're all willing to pay the price we do for tickets, and pay professional athletes the absurdly inflated salaries we do, it will continue. Supply and demand.

So when does the NBA realize it's about team and go back to that?

Lebron highlights real in the casual fan. The NBA has an agenda and that's making $$. So sometimes I hate watching sportscenter and seeing only cavs highlights in a game we won, but the win more than makes up for that.

I love disappointing the media. They can't hide the box score  ;)

To be fair, viewers want to see dunks, blocks and clutch shots. Gets you ratings and advertising money.

What we have is great ball movement and great defense. They can get the highlights. I'll take the W.

Yeah, I pretty much expected this.  No matter what happens they always show Lebron.  Plus they highlighted that Shaq block that was actually a foul.

I am sorry, Mr. Stern, but your team lost.

That's our highlight.
