Celtics: Wow

Most of you are aware of the courageous run the Celtics have acheived last night. This is one the greatest stories I think in NBA history. The Celtics had such anticipation to win a championship after trading for Ray Allen and KG that I felt it would be too good to be true. But at last they have overcome the gruesome NBA playoffs bringing each series to game 7. Now they have defeated the Lakers with class and honor. I have never felt more confident about the Finals after we won the first 2 games of the series. We were playing like champions and it was fascinating to watch every second of it. Paul Peirce couldn't have looked any more of a superstar and having greats on our team like Allen and KG step up to the stage couldn't have happened more perfect. Being in Boston for these kind of wins and achievements really makes you feel like you apart of something great. I will remember these moments for the rest of my life and will be babbling about it with my friends and family til I'm six feet underground. The chances of a team to be 2nd worse in the league and strive to be the best in the world is unimaginable. Every piece of the puzzle fit and when everyone stood back there was a picture of a NBA championship trophy. I could only imagine the emotions veterans like Peirce must be feeling. He's been the great underrated player, playing for a horrible team for years but always playing with heart and never giving up on his team. He has finally risen to the forefront and this is his time to shine. He is now among the greatest not just only of the present but of all the many greats that have worn the Celtic jersey proudly. The feeling of being the best at what you do when many try so hard to try to reach such heights is why we play the game. As they interview Kevin Garnett right after the championship win, he can only repeat the words "I'm on top of the world" the sense of joy and happiness poured out this great athlete that words could never describe the feelings he possessed at the time. This is what being a fan is all about and why I love sports is these kind of moments. I am proud to be a Celtic fan and a Boston fan because it has been nothing but a rollercoaster...and I love rollercoasters.
