I'm not gonna pass judgement on how he's done with the Cavs but that seriously can't help the Cavs' attempt to re-sign LBJ :x By the way sorry about my random offseason poking-my-head-into-this-thread-isms, even if it's a playoff thread and not an offseason thread. There was a lot of speculation that losing Brown and Ferry would give the Cavs a better chance at resigning LeBron. | ||

^-- I'm aware that all the teams wooing LBJ are all crappy, rebuilding teams, too, but it seemed to me like the big draw of Cleveland would be that it had a comparatively championship-ready roster. | ||

After the Celtics beat the Lakers in their only regular season game at Laker stadium Doc Rivers asked for $100 from every player and staff. 26 people--$2,600 later Doc hides the money in the visiting team locker room. Doc told the players and staff that the only way they'd get this money back was to get back to the Finals. Keep in mind, during this time Celtics were on a downfall, #3 in the East at the time and nobody was expecting much from them. Yesterday Doc retrieved the money and hopefully the Lakers' chance at a ring this postseason.  ___________________________________________________________________________________ Editors Note:  at Celtics loss yesterday.Source: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/Doc-Rivers-hides-2600-in-the-Staples-Center-cei?urn=nba,245661 | ||

Phil Jackson's helped nudge him into from an occasionally brilliant, occasionally lackadaisical player into the 3rd best center in the league (not including injured Yao). Given his low post repertoire, his free throw shooting, his offensive boards, and length in the paint, he might even be a better overall player than Dwight Howard in crunch time. I don't know why the media thinks he was bad in the 2008 finals. The Celtics put a considerable amount of effort into trying to control him, and every time they didn't body him out of the paint he wreaked havoc. | ||

He was pretty much destroyed in 2008, Garnett walked all over him. It's both Garnett deteriorating and Gasol improving, more of the former. | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/JnT9O.gif) Damn KG. What is up?? I really like Kobe. He is so good, tooooo good. But I dislike the Lakers. Hate Pierce, but I'm rooting for the Celtics. Does this make sense?  Game 2 I feel it will be a closer game. Celtics know how to adjust to how a team plays. I don't wanna be a noob and say Lakers will win because of home court advantage, but I think Lakers will win Game 2, but it'll be a closer/funner game. Cheers to an exciting Finals. | ||

By the way, how stupid is it that the NBA finals have a 2 day dead period between game 1 and game 2? They may get better numbers for game 2 by waiting to play on sunday, but does that do anything to build interest in the series or the sport? There should never be more than one day between games in a series, and the NBA does it ALL THE TIME. | ||
