The Finals

The 2008 NBA finals were won by the boston celtics. The Celtics walked right over the Lakers to pick up their 17th championchip banner. I dont think the Celtics could have pulled it off if it werent for some key additions to the team, this year. In order from most important to least important this is a list of the additions to the team.

               Kevin Garnett the power forward, the Celtics got him from the Minnesotia Timberwolves. Where he had played  his whole career. Something I found intresting is that Kg said he never would play for the Celtics he said he would only play for the Timberwolves or the Suns. Paul Pierce said that he wanted to go to the Wolves if Kg didnt come to Boston but then one later, Kg ends up bringing the championchip back to Boston and he is probably glad he got traded.   

             Ray Allen- The superstar strong guard, that the Celtics got from the Seattle Supersonics. Ray Allen is known for his abilaty to make 3 pointers, he is also one of the best shooters on the floor. This year he played a big part in bringing the championchip back to Boston for its 17th time. He tied the record for most 3 pointers made in a finals game which is 17. A weird circumstance is the last finals game happened on the 17th, and Ray Allen tied the record with 17 3 pointers, which brought the Celtics their 17th championchip.  

        Rajon Rondo- the stellar point guard from Kentucky he is known for his ability to find the open man.      

          Pj Brown- The veteran from the bulls he is a great shooter and ball handeler he used to play with Micheal Jordon  himself.                                                                                                                                                       Kendrick Perkins- The center  he is a great deffenceman. Him and the deffencive player of the year Kg is one of the best deffencive combos ever I think. 

   Sam Cassel also a great veteran used to be one of the highest point scores in history he came out of retiremant to play for Boston thisyear.                                                                                                        Big Baby D- The back up for Perkins used to be a football player, thats must be where he gets his huge size and monster agression from. He was doing great at the start of the year then Perkins took over.            

     James Posey- Also known for his agression, size, and consitancy from the 3 point line.

Nba Draft

It is looking like Micheal Beasley, the star forward from Kansas State will be selected first by the Chicago Bulls.  If that pick were to happen that would mean that Derrick Rose, the stellar point gaurd at Memphis would join Dwane Wade, in the backcourt next season in Miami.    3rd pick goes to the Timberwolves, their projected pick is Brook Lopez, the center from Stanford. 4th Super Sonics projected pick is Jerryd Bayless, he plays point guard and strong guard he is from Arizona. 5th Grizzlies, its looking like their going with Kevin Love from USCLA, he plays power forward and center. 6th goes to the Knicks, looks like their going with Oj Maya, the guard from USC. 7th goes to the Clippers, looks like their going with Erick Gordan, the strong guard from Indiana. 8th pick goes to the Bucks I think their going with Dallino Gallinaro, from Armani Jeans Alimino. 9th pick goes to the Bobcats, looks like their going with the big man from LSU, he plays forward. Next pick’s going to the Nets,  looks like their going with the huge guy from Texas, DeAndre Jordan the center. Number 11’s going to the Pacers and it looks like theyt are going with Dj Austin, the point guard from Texas.12thpick goes to the Kings, looks like their going with the guard Russel Westbrook from UCLA.13th pick goes to the Trailbrazer, their projected pick is a forward from West Virginia, named Joe Alexander. Next pick goest to the Warriors, the prediction is they’re going with Kosta Kofus the center from Ohio State. 15th pick, its looking like the Suns are going to pick up the strong guy, Brandon Rush from Kansas. Next are the Sixers who are predicted to go with the power forward from Kansas, Darrel Arthur. #17 looks like Raptors are going with the forward from Syracuse, Donte Green.18th pick goes to the Wizards looks like their going with the forward, Nicholas Batrumn from LMSB. Next are the Calvilears and it looks like their going with the strong guy from Arizon, his name is Chase Budinger. 20th pick goes to the Nuggets, looks like they are going with the center from Nevada Javeal McGea. #21Nets, and it looks like their going with the forward/ center, Mareese Speights he currently goes to Florida.Next pick goes to Majic and it looks like they are going with, Chris Douglas-Roberts  SG/SF from Memphis. Pick number 23 goes to the Jazz, and it looks like they are going with the center from Georgetown, Roy Hibbert. Pick 24 Supersonics pick will probably be for the center from Hyres Toulon his name is, Alex Ajinca. Next pick goes to the Rockets, who are probably going to go with the pf/c from Stanford named Robin Lopez. Pick 26 goes to the Spurs, looks like they are going to pick up Courtney Lee  SG/SF from Western Kentucky. Pick 27 of the draft the Hornets are looking like they are going to go with the guard from North Carolina, his name is Ty Lawson. I don’t think the Hornets should make that pick because they already have a great guard Chris Paul, but maybe they need a good backup or something. #28 goes to the Grizzlies looks like they are going with the center from Rider, named Jason Thompsan. Pick number 29 goes to the Pistions and it looks like they are going with the power forward D.J White, from Indiana. The 30th and last pick of round one goes to my favorite team the Celtics, looks like they are going to pick up the center Devin Harden, from California.

Sports

    

Todays subject in sports is the Boston Celtics.          As many of you are aware the celtics are leading the series against the Detroit Pistons, I am predicting that the Celtics will beat the Pistons and then go on to the finals against either the Lakers, or the Hornets.  Kevin Garnett leads the team in minutes played so far this playoff session with 683 minutes, he is averaging 37.9 minutes per game. Kevin Garnett also leads them with points this playoff session, he has 372 points and 20.7 per game. Paul Pierce leads with 30-85 3 point shots in the playoffs so far.  So far in the playoffs for the celtics I would have to say by a land slide K.G is leading the team.      What I think is weird about the Celtics is that they have a player named Ray Allen, and another player named Allan Ray it must be pretty confusing. Except for the fact that Allan Ray, has a fake glass eye because in one of his games his eye got poked out.   Ray Allen, has been on a bad streak in the playoffs because he hasn’t been making, the shots he ussualy makes like his signature 3 pointers. Ray also has the best shot in the NBA, but I guess you cant make all your shots every time, I just don’t hope this affects his stats that badly.

                           In the Division finals series between the Lakers, and Spurs the key players in the series are Kobe Bryant, and Tim Duncan. for each game won by each team this series they have been the highest point scorers. I personaly are hoping for the Spurs to come back and win it because i’m a Celtics fan, and think the Celtics would have a much easier win against them. But it is not likly that the Spurs can hold Kobe and the lakers for 3 more games, without them winning one of the games . With Koby against them its almost impossible. How do I even still got hope in the Spurs with a guy like this on the other team.
