Lakers-Celtics, Game 2: A Thought Before The Home Stretch

We’re about to hit the final minutes of a pivotal Game 2. It’s a three-point Boston lead at this point, and if the Celtics win, we head back to Boston and it’s anybody’s series. If the Lakers win, they put themselves in prime position to win a second-straight title. Those are the stakes, and both teams have responded accordingly, trading big shots for the entire second half. Back-and-forth they’ve gone, exchanging leads, with role players like Nate Robinson stepping up early in the fourth, and Kobe and Ray Allen are looming as our designated assassins down the stretch.

Does it get much better than this for basketball fans?
