... how Boston scored 31 points in a half against the Lakers who are apparently worthless on defence?

Sure, defence wins championships but you need to sink a damn bucket every 5 minutes or so.

quiet, Boston playing as if they have a lead in the series (oh they do)

Lakers were bound to play better D at home early in the game. Lets see if they can do it in a do-or-die game 7 where Celtics will play much, much better offense

Home court advantage.

So it's definitely going to 7 then? Just making sure I'm clear on this one.

now they realize what the home advantage really is: playing the elimination game at home. don't understand some argued 2-3 playing last two at home is not home court advantage.

I don't see the Lakers blowing a 20-pt halftime lead. Sure, they may cruise and win the game by just 10 tho.

I'm not betting on game 7, just going to enjoy it... may not have another one this good for a decade or so.
