NBA Finals 2008 Boston Celtics vs. LA Lakers Game 1

Celtics got off to a good start by beating Kobe in Game 1. It was a close match. I think Kobe led for a short period of time in the game but it was basically the Celtics all the way. Kobe had a poor shooting game by his standards (FG 9-26). I am glad Ray Allen shot down 19 points in this game. Paul Pierce was hurt but he came back to the game. I hope he recovers quickly for Game 2. While everyone is talking about how many games this Finals series would take before Kobe wins his 4th ring but I am inclined to think that Pierce, Garnett and Allen would win their first NBA ring as long the Celtics win all their home games. In the mean time while waiting for Game 2, I hope Roger would beat Nadal on Sunday.
