Garnett Runs The ATL- Celtics 88 Hawks 85

Kevin Garnett is public basketball enemy no. 1 at least in the Phillips Arena.  Garnett and the Celtics came to Atlanta last night with a 15 game winning streak and when the game was over they now have a 16 game winning streak.  The Hawks played the defending champions tough but at the end it was Kevin Garnett proves why he is one of the best players in the NBA and will go down as one of the best of all time.  Garnett in the 4th quarter took over this game on the offensive side of the ball by scoring 10 points in the 4th quarter.  At the end of the Garnett stats were 18 points and 8 rebounds.   The Hawks almost was able to tie the game up with under 3 seconds but Joe Johnson missed a critcal free throw and that sealed the fate for the young Hawks.  Don’t get too upset Hawks you went up against a team who will more than likely win 70 games and win the Championship and go down as one of the best teams in NBA history.  And if it does happened it will be due the best team player in the NBA KEVIN GARNETT!!!

SAME OLE GREEN-CELTICS 90 CAVS 85!!

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.

Posey Watch

With a NBA Champion season under his belt James Posey would be stupid to say I want out of Bean Town.  Well, it looks like Posey is a smart man,  he is saying “Four More Years.”  31-yr-old Posey wants a four year contract with big bucks.  But can Danny give him a 4-yr deal worth $5 million.  Some say the Celtics are being greedy for not give Posey a deal like this.  Eddie House wants not part in the one-year deal the Celtics are trying to give him.  But you have to give Posey his props for smart negotiating.  Also could we see a certain Knick become a Celtic?
