kobe starting out on rondo...time to run his butt into the ground and time for ray to abuse fisher

The other thing Lakers fans can expect to see at the start of the game is Kobe Bryant matched up against Rajon Rondo.

"[It will] probably [be] Kobe, but if we get cross-matched, Fish [Derek Fisher] will be on him a lot," Jackson said.

am i crazy to think this series is going to seem easier compared to the magic series?

Rondo NEEDS to be aggressive for the full 48 esp in the last 5 minutes of the game where he has lately been hesitant. Can't rely on big 3 to close out games, rondo needs to attack and find shooters. Pierce NEEDS to attack the hoop, don't settle for jump shots, get ron ron in foul trouble and get to the line. And we need to win the rebounding edge, KG and Perk need to be monsters and keep Bynum, Gasol and Odom off the glass. Tall order but if we bring the energy and deliver the first punch we have a great shot at stealing game 1. Go Celtics BEAT LA!

As Magic Johnson said on ESPN a few days ago:

"Celtics VS Lakers....Raarrrgghhh!!!!"

It Doesn't get any better than this!!!!

[RebusRankin]

Let's go Celtics.

I'm curious to see how physically they let Artest guard Pierce. Hopefully they don't let him get away with the abuse he gave Durant.

Rondo needs attack Kobe,Ray needs to run Fisher ragged and here's to KG stepping up.

My prediction is KG is a surprise star.

I hope you are crazy like a fox, man.  The faster the C's take this (and I hate to think that's even an "if") the happier I'll be.  

Nailbiters just make me older quicker.

So nervous... I think it's might be time for a few beers.

[hwangjini_1]

hard to wait for the tip off...i believe in the celtics and i know they will win the series.

but i am nervous partly because i will be living and dying with each made shot, each miss, each foul, and more.

go celtics!!!!!!!
