The Battle Of The Beast...
It's been twenty one years...Working class Boston vs Hollywood. Kevin Garnet's heart vs Kobie's head. Paul Pierce's will to win vs Kobe's will. Defense vs Offense.
Beat LA...Beat LA...Beat LA...Beat LA...
Go Boston!
With 26 seconds to go in Game 7 of the 1982 Eastern Conference finals at the old Garden and the Sixers pulling away from the soon-to-be ex-champs the crowd began to chant the now-famous phrase. Philadelphia, after all, would be facing the hated Lakers in the NBA Finals.

Re: The Battle Of The Beast...
Who will win all depends on who Kobe bet on.
Re: The Battle Of The Beast...
Does Kobe have a gambling problem? I'm confused.

Re: The Battle Of The Beast...
The Boston Celtics comeback will go down as one of the greatest in NBA finals history. Boston threesup.
Wait...is that the fat lady I hear singing?
-bd :happy:
Re: The Battle Of The Beast...
A comeback after being down by 29 points, on the road, in the Finals? That's what champions are made of! :yup:
Re: The Battle Of The Beast...
I can see the hunger in the big three's eyes. The Celtics simply want it more.
Champions indeed (the Celtics were down by 24, btw).
Peace, bd :01:
Re: The Battle Of The Beast...
Nope, it's what losers are made of.. You can't drop a 29 point lead at home unless something seriously bad happens to your offense, which is exactly what happened. On top of that, the defense didn't do much to keep the Celtics off of the scoreboard.. Se la vie I guess..
