The Boston and Laker rivalry was renewed ever since KG chose Boston over LA...it's been brewing since Ray Allen talked shit about Kobe...it's been stamped ever since Gasol was acquired...the exclamation point was Odom tackeling Ray Allen last season...the shit that happened in the Finals, with the Celtics showboating and what not was more than a confirmation that this was THE rivalry...Now, with the games this season, it's just more shit up in the mix. Odom bitching Garnett, Doc Rivers getting fined, Kobe treating Rondo like a lil boy, top 2 teams in the league...HISTORY BETWEEN THE FRANCHISES...all that shit, you're retarded if you think this isn't a legit rivalry.

if this is the best rivalry the NBA is going to have...then I might as well not give a shit about rivalries anymore.  Ive seen bigger rivalries at the Y lol

In general, the Lakers and Celtics are huge rivals. The franchises are not just battling over rings, they are battling over who is the greatest franchise in NBA history.

im talkin about THIS years Laker/Celtic "rivalry". Past rivalries between the two have been amazing. And both teams this year are very good. But not exactly a heated rivalry...to anyone other then Laker/Celtic fans.  It just doesnt have that feel (or any so called rivalry right now) of old Laker/Celtic rivalries...or like I said, Bulls/Knicks...etc.

Apparently, muthafucka can't comprehend the magnitude of the bad blood between these two franchises. he doesn't realize what's at stake and the meaning behind all this...he thinks this is like some new thing ESPN is tryna hype. LMAO. TONE, Lakers-Celtics is not a rivalry in the making, this is THEE rivalry of basketball history, and the fact that we're the two top teams of our conference and met in the Finals last year solidifies this as a legit rivalry. The Celtic-Laker rivalry is ETERNAL.

Lakers/Celtics is THE rivalry of decades ago. It just BARELY got renewed last year (one year lol), and it is nowhere NEAR as intense as it used to be, or as other rivalries of the past between other teams has been. Im not saying that this current little "rivalry" will never be that intense, nobody knows. Im saying right now, its not. Obviously. Lakers/Celtics 2008-2009 is not the same rivalry as Bird/Magic's Celtics and Laker squads.  They are completely different teams in different eras. Its like saying if the Bulls and Knicks meet in the playoffs, it will be the same rivalry as it was when MJ was in the league lol. Obviously...it wouldnt.

It's not intense? Have you even watched the last two Lakers-Celtics matchup? The energy is intense...the arena gets louder than most playoff games. shits crazy. Bulls and Knicks don't have the marquee match-ups nowadays to make a true rivalry interesting. what'll you have, Ben Gordon vs Nate Robinson? When Celtics acquired the stars and we acquired the stars, and we ONCE AGAIN both became the top teams of our conference, it was on...we got Kobe vs. Pierce, Odom vs Allen, Gasol vs. KG, all that shit. shits gettin real. dont get mad Spurs aint involved in shit...PeACe
