For the 17^th time in there franchise the Boston Celtics celebrated a championship in the Finals.  The Celtics opened up the new 2008/09 season against the Cleveland Cavaliers.  The Cavaliers lost to the Celtics last season in the postseason in a 7 game thriller.  The Cavaliers did and up grade on there team by getting Mo Williams.  This move was to help Lebron James on the scoring end.  But unfortunately it was the same result for the Cavaliers taking on the Boston Celtics.  The Celtics came away with the victory last night lead by Paul Pierce. Pierce scored 27 points and had this to say about last night game and getting his first ring of his career. “It’s moments like these that you cherish. Whenever you can raise that banner and grab that ring, and be there in front of the people closest to you, it’s very emotional,” Pierce said. “I’m just glad I pulled together in time so we could come out and play the game.” 

As for Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers they played well but did not protect the ball very well.  The Cavaliers had 21 turnovers and James missed some key free throws in the 4^th quarter. For James and the Cavaliers not only do they have to stop turning the ball over but there best player Lebron James must be better at the free throw line if not they will continue watching other teams get there ring while they watch.
