So it seems the trend for the past 10 years. Seven of the last 10 openers in the NBA Finals have gone ‘under’ the total and two of the three games that did go ‘over’ the total, barely made it. Plus, the other ‘over’ ticket (Sixers-Lakers 2001) that cashed was helped by overtime. I am assuming the trend will continue for tonight. Hoping both teams can clamp down thier defence a notch for this opener.

The history of Lakers-Celtics is the history of the NBA. On the eve of their 11th Finals showdown, we take a comprehensive look at these epic rivals, and the players, personalities and storylines that have made this matchup such wonderful theater. Bird vs. Magic. West vs. Cousy. The stunning dominance of Celtics great Bill Russell. The contentious playoff fouls, the East-vs.-West-inspired passion of the fans. It all shaped how this series was viewed. When the Los AngelesLakers and the Boston Celtics square off in the 11th Finals series contested by these franchises, the crucial moments will be piling up. The Lakers were swept by Boston in the regular season, but now it's a whole different ballgame. The Celtics will be looking for their first NBA title since 1986 when they face a familiar foe in the Lakers.

Going to be a close game, so I am thinking the points with the Lakers is the best bet on the board. Taking the Celtics who are so great at home only giving a couple of points also just seems to easy.

Three stars. One basketball. Zero complaints.Boston’s Big Three of  Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, and Ray Allen are playing for a championship in their first year together, finding success in the kind of selflessness only losing can teach.

To their credit, the Lakers are 3-0 in Game 1s.To their delight, they finally get to play another one tonight. It has been almost a week  now, talking about the matchup and the anticipation between the Lakers and the Celtics. What a relief for Lakers fans.The real thing, however, wasn't quite as clear-cut. They haven't experienced the game until they're out there tonight. But the reality of coming through this playoff process and doing it the way they've done it in the past should  give them some hope that they're going to be responsive at that time. The Lakers lost to the Celtics here at the Garden in November, 107-94, and at Staples Center a month later, 110-91.
