You know what's remarkable? If Mitch Kupchak and Danny Ainge were fired in the offseason, the NBA would be looking at another Spurs-Pistons Finals. Instead, they're about to get the best possible alternative.

    DANNY HAS TO BE THE GM OF THE YEAR..LOOK WHAT HE DID WITH THE CELTICS..I'M A FAN OVER 30 YRS AND I NEVER IN MY WILDEST THOUGHTS THAT WE COULD COME BACK FROM THE HORRIBLE YEARS WE HAD SO FAST..KG, RAY WERE THE BEST THINGS THEY'VE DONE SINCE BIRD, CHIEF AND MCHALE...THE BIG THREE SHOULD BE ABLE TO GIVE US A FEW GOOD YEARS TOGETHER, AS KG AND RAY ARENT THE YOUNGEST IN THE WORLD, BUT WE'LL HAVE TO SEE...KG TAKES A LOT OF CRITICISM THAT HE'S NOT A LEADER IN A BAD TIME, SO I DONT KNOW..BUT HE KICKED ASS THIS YEAR...

    I THINK THE  MOST UNDERRATED OF THE STARTING FIVE IS KENDRIK...NOBODY REALLY TALKS ABOUT  HIM, HE HAS AVERAGE NUMBERS, BUT WHEN HE HAS A GREAT GAME,, THE C'S USUALLY WIN..HE MIGHT BE THE KEY TO THE SERIES WITH LA..

    ITS GOING TO BE A GREAT ONE, AND SHOULD HAVE RED TURNING IN HIS GRAVE WHEN LA SCORES A BASKET..LETS HOPE NOT TOO MANY....

    GO CELTICS GO....ITS BEEN TOO LONG...GO GO GO...

Don’t tell me when Shaq was first traded in 2004 you thought this team would be back to the Finals so soon. This season is a testament to the greatest player of the post Michael Jordan era. No matter how you feel about Kobe Bryant as a person, you can’t deny that this guy is the best in the game today. As Jerry West said, you have to respect a guy that from day one set a goal to be the ...
Friday's Starting FiveWhat Would Oakley Do?
1. The Los Angeles Lakers. The No. 1 seed in the Western Conference playoffs has officially cleared the field and been crowned conference champions. It is an accomplishment to win the championship of one's league in any season but to do so this year when the competition was so very good ranks even higher. I hope that Lakers GM Mitch Kupchak send's on of those goofy-looking conference ...
Kupchak’s RedemptionBallerBlogger.com
A year ago, Bryant was clamoring for a trade and throwing verbal jabs at the front office. By fall, the ill feelings had been suppressed, though not forgotten.
