As the series heads back to Boston, the Lake Show finds itself in a 2-3 hole in the quest for a title.
There are several problems that I've seen with our game this series. Our lack of consistent aggression is our number one problem. Our inability to play a complete game has cost us one if not two games.
Reading the internet (something I should seriously consider giving up), you would think that the Lakers are some last place team that's lucky to be in the finals. All the talk is of the vaulted Celtic defense (a bit touchy grabby for my taste but I'm not an official). Oddly enough, though our screen and roll defense leaves much to be desired, many of the stats that are a reflection of the defense are not that underwhelming.
Lastly, there's a simple statement I want to make for all the newly diehard Celtics fans claiming greatest basketball franchise -- the Celtics are relevant every twenty years, the 60's, 80', and currently. The Lakers have never gone 22 years without a championship......the Lakers have played for a championship in every single decade.
Let's go Lake Show...let's win Game 6 and move on from there!
