If you have been waiting for a Finals post from us here at The Manchise, I personally apologize for the lack of thoughts. I honestly have not been able to gather myself after the first two roller coaster-like games. But now that the Lakers demolished the Celtics in game three, and the nation had to bear witness to another awful night from two of the Big Four, I'm ready. I'm ready to kick this shit into overdrive.
Since 1985 (when the NBA started using the 2-3-2 format), the team that wins game three after a one to one tie, has won the Larry O'Brien Trophy 100% of the time. 100%! The 2010 Finals looks to be transcending towards that same trend. After letting the series slip 2-1 in favor of the Lakers, the Celtics have one of the biggest mountains to climb. They have given a team that consists of two jolly giants, an assassin, a border line psychopath, a point guard that couldn't beat Billy Hoyle one on one, and a Kardashian's man bitch a healthy handful of confidence; and you don't want to give a Kobe Bryant led team more confidence than they already have.
