Both NBA finals number one seeds have shown why they are the number one seeds; the Lakers and Kobe Bryant showed the nation that the Spurs were old and tired from their Game 1 loss where they let their 20 point lead slip away. The Lakers didn't even let the Spurs take a break in their Friday night 101-71 slaughter.
They now lead the series 2-0 as the series shifts to San Antonio. The Spurs will be rested more and be able to show viewers why they are the defending champs, and should get at least one win at home if not be able to tie the series at 2 a piece.
The Boston Celtics could not win on the road in the playoffs in the first two rounds; they went 0-3 vs. the Atlanta Hawks, and 0-3 vs. the Cavs. But the Celtics also won 30 plus road games in the regular season, the best in the NBA, and they showed that they could win on the road last night as they defeated the Motor City Men (Detroit Pistons) 94-80 in Detroit.
The questions surrounding the Celtics have now been shifted to the Pistons, and while momentum changes frequently every NBA and really has no factor in the long run, a home loss apiece is something to be concerned about in the East.
Yes that was a rhyme.
