Los Angeles Lakers lead 3-0 against Phoenix Suns in NBA Western Conference Finals. Boston Celtics in control of Eastern Conference 2-0 against Orlando Magic.
Fans clamor for a possible rematch Lakers vs. Celtics since 2008 in this year’s NBA Finals. Lakers’ coach Philip Jackson is thinking head on saying, “We can’t worry about anything besides this one right now (Suns). We’re just playing to see what happens here.” Kobe Bryant is looking at the game just the same, with his team focusing at the moment for there are still games to win. Meanwhile, on the eastern court Celtics are taking the game on stride to win the championship despite Magic’s home court advantage. Celtic’s coach Doc Rivers avoids any comparison with the 2008 finals because a lot of changes have been going with his team. They are hard on practice now after losing against the Cavaliers in Game 3 semi-finals 124-95. Rivers wants to go for the gold. “This is not a team to rest on its laurels. We got 2-0 lead with home court, but we don’t look at it like that. We look at this as a must win.”
Lakers in the past finals had lost to Celtics three times. It was a mismatch, a sports commentary adds.
But that was before. It could be different this time.
