Did the Lakers/ Celtics Final live up to your expectations?

Question

I know that last sentence doesn't make sense, but you know what I mean.

Answer 1

No, if it did the Lakers would beat the Celtics. I want to see a rematch and the Lakers kicking Boston's **** in 4 straight games.

Answer 2

if the lakers would of won game 4 they would of won game 5 then lead the series 3-2 then the lakers would had 2 chances to beat Boston on the road but they messed up big time!!

Answer 3

No but i'm hoping next years Finals between those would be better

Answer 4

yeah it waz great it i would of like and see my beloved lakers win but their alwayz this year and years afther that overall i give it a 8 out of 10  

Answer 5

At first, I expected the Lakers to win in 6, so no it didn't live up to my original expectations. Instead, my hopes were almost filled with the Celtics winning (I really wanted the Celts to win in 5 to p**s off Stern).

For the 09 Finals, I'd like to see the Rockets face the Celtics instead of the Lakers.

Answer 6

yea it would be nice to see the lakers actually try next time

seems like they weren't even trying especially Kobe

Answer 7

Definetly, and the best part was the C's bit*h slapping them back to LA. I hope we do get a repeat next year WITH BYNUM, the Lakers super human Savior, so that the Laker fans have some other battle cry for the following season!

Answer 9

No, the Rockets werent in the finals. I was cheering for the Lakers because they represented the West.

Answer 10

it would have been better if it would have went to 7 games, but it was still entertaining,

All i want to see is the hornets vs. who ever comes out the east

Answer 11

Of course ...it was great untie game 6...all the game except game 6 were only 10 or less different .... and do i want see that again...if my team win why not...if not NO.

Answer 12

well i was hoping lakers would sweep the celtics 4-0...but that didnt happen now did it?? Ya i would like to see the same teams match up, only this time have the lakers win. The finals were fun to watch however...

Answer 13

Nah I kinda hated it. My favorite part though was when Lakers were crushing in first half of game 4. Then unfortunantely Lakers lost...

Hopefull next year there will be a game 7 with Lakers winning it.

Answer 14

Yes because Kobe missing 60% of his shots and blowing a 24 point lead was my expectation

Answer 15

Well in the finals the lakers didn't come out playing cause their superstar kobe bryant didn;t play his game. I think that he was trying to be like mike the whole series cause he didn;t do jack another thing i was suprised at was  all the misses by kevin garnett but i think paul pierce showed alot to the boston fans if u want to talk nba i know about everything im a bulls fan add me on yahoo messenger jeremy_rivera2002

Answer 16

Rooting for the Eastern guys, It sure lived to my expectations. The games were well fought-out, very disciplined basketball something you do expect from the top teams of both conferences.

Well the duke out clearly shows the difference in play styles of both conferences with Boston harboring a defensive mindset, and the Lakers displaying a more offensive mode routine. But the game 6 blow-out, that was something I never imagined, especially for a closer.

I have seen worser Laker teams in the 90's, but that blow-out is something for the records.

Hope this helps.

Answer 17

No

Answer 18

As a Laker fan nope it fell short , but the i would love to see the same Rematch they want Revenge
