If Rajan Rondo keeps hitting the 15 ft jumper, there is no way anyone can beat the Celtics. Danny Ainge who was seriously questioned when he traded Kendrick Perkins might have upgraded the depth of this team enough to win a title. Jermaine O’Neal is healthy, Jeff Allen spots in well, Big Baby gets better each game. Ray Allen and paul Pierce are incredible down the wire. KG is KG.

3 reasons the lakers Will win in Boston tonight:
Ray Allen can never be as hot as he was Sunday night
Kobe will never play as little or as bad as he did
The lakers are just too big for Boston
Paul Pierce and Ray Allen combined for 47 as the Celtics led virtually the entire game and won fairly easily. The Celts go up 1-0 in the best of seven series.

On the other hand expect Boston and Orlando to claw and battle to the wire. Can Pierce and Ray Allen continue to nail tough shot after tough shot? I say not today Dwight Howard gets another 20-20 effort, Orlando 92 Boston 89.
