Celtics, Lakers history

The Celtics and the Laker sort of have a history together something like the Yankees and Red Sox in baseball or Bears and Packers in football. The late stars of the teams Magic Johnson of the Lakers and Larry Bird of the Celtics carried their franchises with the help of other key players. The 1984 finals agianst the Celtics and Lakers was one of the most epic 7 games ever. After watching a clip of the games and how the players were feeling about each other at the time was insane. It started as a simple rivalry between the two with the Lakers taking the first game. After it got to about round 4 you could see the emotions building up in the players the Celtics were afraid their trophy was slipping away, the fouls became personal attacks players started fights and other confrontations. When it came down to game 6-7 at the Boston Garden were it was so hot and the Lakers could not bear the heat. This slowed down the fast pace Lakers allowing Celtics to beat them in game 6. In game 7 the Celtics played real hard as the LAkers did to but in the end the Boston Celtics became the 1984 champs. Now history repeats itself and it is happening agian. Game 1 begins Thursday 8:30 LAL at BOS
