Can Celtics take 3-0 lead over Lakers in 2008 NBA Finals?
Can the Boston Celtics move a game closer to the NBA title?.
Yes, the Celtics are only two wins away from the title in the 2008 NBA Finals when the series resumes in L.A. for Game 3.
The Celtics are probably looking for some vindication for the whole Boston area. It has been a great year in sports for people living in Boston, but still, dominating all these sports disciplines only to win one of the three championship battles they have been in sure is disappointing to say the least.
The Boston area this year,
just like the Boston Celtics from the past, have probably grown accustomed to big championship games after the Boston Red Sox beat the crap out of the Colorado Rockies to win the 2007 MLB World Series.
Since then, thanks to the Boston Red Sox, the Boston area was, more often than not, right in the thick of things as far as world championships in sports are concerned. Take the New England Patriots for example. They dominated the NFL last season, winning every single regular season game to overtake the regular season record set by the 1972 Miami Dolphins.
And while Tom Brady and the rest of the Patriots were having their way on the football field, the New England Revolution, another professional sports team from the Boston area, was playing in the championship game of the 2007 MLS soccer season against the Houston Dynamo.
The New England Revolution lost to Houston, unfortunately, and after the New England Patriots lost to the New York Giants in Super Bowl XLII, their ONLY loss in their 2007 campaign, the entire Boston area desperately wanted a winner again.
The Boston Celtics can be the winner the area is looking for. Merely winning one of the three championship wars they’ve been in is simply unacceptable considering the big names in sports that moved here this year.
A win in Game 3 against the Los Angeles Lakers will put Boston merely a win away from the title. Can they do it? It all starts on Tuesday night.
Can the Celtics finally win one for Boston? There’s only one way to find out.
