don't start jumping up and down yet, leprechaun fans.... the series is heading to Cleveland. Atlanta part 2?
LOL one of my friends was convinced (enough to bet me) that Lebron would get more than 30 pts today...easy money for me

He needs the Celts to go to the finals against LA, but he needs LeBron in the finals as well. he doesn't "need" either. He loves this.Boston-Detroit or Cleveland-Detroit are both very marketableWhy are you arguing East finals matchups? I'm talking about the NBA Finals.You're smoking massive crack rocks if you don't think Stern wouldn't kill to have LA vs BOSTON. It's all about the money and that will EASILY be the most watched series out of all possible matchups. LA - Boston might bring in some decent ratingsbut I think Utah-Detroit is what Stern reallllly wants.lol@ LA vs. Boston maybe bringing in decent ratings. I don't think you quite understand the demographics behind this. The 2 greatest franchises in NBA history resurrecting their rivalry. LA is a phenomenal market, Boston is THE bandwagon team this year. You got Kobe back in the finals after a few year hiatus, you got Garnett finally playing with the chance to get a ring. Because of the tradition of these teams, you are going to pull in a lot of the older crowd who remember these teams from the 60's and 80's who have very little interest in the young generation of stars. A lot of casual fans would tune into this that wouldn't otherwise. All of us are prolly gonna watch the finals regardless of who is in it. The real money is made by bringin in viewers who wouldn't typically watch this type of thing. LA vs Boston is easily THE most lucrative finals possible. And that's what it's all about if you're David Stern.

I bet David Stern hates this match up. He needs the Celts to go to the finals against LA, but he needs LeBron in the finals as well.
as styles said, let's see if cle can shift the series in their home like atl did..
^ I know that the game isn't over yet, but I am sensing in the Force that there are many Celt fans crying over that first half.
