Congratulations KG

Special congratulations to Kevin Garnett for finally breaking through and winning an NBA Championship with the Boston Celtics, as they bested their blood rivals the Los Angles Lakers 4 games to 2, concluding with the most lopsided series ending game in history in Boston last Tuesday night. By so doing, he silenced the legion of fickled fans and commentators who too eagerly would readily assign him to the scrap heap of Hall-of-Fame players, like Charles Barkley and Elgin Baylor, whose misfortune it was to never have played on a championship team.

Boston Comeback

The Boston Celtics' dramatic comeback against the Los Angeles Lakers - the Lakers led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter - reconfirms the bromide that, in the final analysis, it isn't how you start but how you finish that matters. That improbable victory places Boston in a control of the series, 3 games to 1, a deficit that no team has been able to overcome in the history of the NBA Championships.
