They would've repeated in 09 if it weren't for a fickin alley oop
They would've threepeated in 10 had ray Allen not gotten kneed in the thigh and perk tearing his acl after Kobe did some foul shyt
That whole run is one big what if
It's really hard to fully appreciate hat championship when there was a potential dynasty

Let's just put it this way. KG was a top 3 player at least and he was the best player in the 2008 Finals (not PP, not Kobe).
Celtics do not have a top 3 player, likely not a top 10 player THIS YEAR and they are facing a top 3 player in Lebron.
I appreciate Lebron's greatness but his greatness is why you can't compare him to glorified sidekicks like Kobe. Kobe earned the right to crappy playoffs games. Lebron doesn't have that right or luxury.
Compare choking away a finals game to throwing your 1st loss of the playoffs after 10 straight wins in a series that's already overCompare the 08 Celtics to a team of role players

If only Kobe had Kyrie and Love score 25+ and not have Sasha and Vladamir Radmonivch instead.

They would be wide open on the perimeter while Kobe chucked and the stans would call them soft fakkits
I swear tears of joy well up in my eyes whenever I see anything related to the 2008 championship.
That team was destined to win----and everybody knew it.
Yeah, once Bynum went down it was a forgone conclusion that the celtics would win. That's a whole different series of Bynum and to a lesser extent Ariza were healthy. Most overrated nikkaz ever.
But yeah, Game 4 was the most disgusting shyt ever. I knew Game 6 would happen because Kobe's teammates was looking shook but Game 4 was just downright terrible. I can still see Ray driving in the paint and Sasha Vujacic practically escorting Ray Allen from the free throw line to the basket. Kobe gets no pass for that game either he shouldve saw what was coming and get the game back under control.
I think only the pistons series makes me sicker than this 08 bullshyt. Them nikkaz is the 04 pistons but with big name stars. Still only won once, was fortunate because of Lakers misfortune, at least we broke even.
