Ray Allen Get’s Hitched

Hooped Up | August 20, 2008

Ray Allen got a more important ring this summer, as he married his fiancé Shannon Walker Williams in Martha’s Vineyard this weekend.  Brian McKnight also performed at the couples wedding according to Young, Black and Fabulous.

The marriage pressure just went up a notch for every single current Boston Celtic.

Whose Driving The Bus?

Hooped Up | June 26, 2008


Jeff Van Gundy should never coach again and just call games.  Dude is hilarious! Even better than his humour is that he’s not Tom Tolbert.

Boston Celtics: 2008 NBA Champions

Hooped Up | June 18, 2008

Did anybody get the license plate number of that green and white Peterbilt with Shamrocks on it?

In a game the Lakers needed and the Celtics wanted the Celtics crushed the Lakers for the 2008 NBA Championship 92 - 131 in Game 6. It took 6 games to lower the Lakers to their plot and tonights game makes it look like the Celtics played rope a dope with the Lakers to celebrate in Boston.

The “Big Three” had a big night with Kevin Garnett scoring 22 with 14 boards, Ray Allen scoring 26 and finals MVP Paul Pierce scored 17 with 10 dimes. While firmly keeping their collective foot on the Lakers neck.

Rajon Rondo also had a big game with 21 points and 8 assist to contribute to the slaughter.

Kobe Bryant finished with 22 but looked like he accepted his fate late in the third quarter as did the rest of the Lakers.

This is the 17th time the Celtics have been crowned kings of the NBA and their first title since 1986. Snapping a 22 year drought for the franchise.

Back To Beantown Game 5

Hooped Up | June 16, 2008

In a crazy series things went nuts again, as the Lakers hung on for a unlikely 98 - 103 win last night. The Lakers jumped on the Celtics early, leading by as much as 19 points again before the Celtics closed in at the half. Both teams were very sloppy combining for 35 turnovers.

Kobe Bryant finshed with 25 points followed by Lamar Odom who had another strong game posting 25 points and 11 rebounds. Paul Pierce had a great game leading the Celtics with 38 points and 8 assists in a losing effort that saw him go 16 - 19 from the line.

Down the strech the Lakers got very lucky and the Celtics couldn’t exicute missing key free throws and turnovers. Not to mention Doc Rivers had several miss cues in the roation he had on the floor, in the dying moments in the game.

The stage is now set for a game six in Boston for either the Celtics to close out the series. Or the Lakers to force a game 7 Tuesday night. No team has ever come back down three games to one in a series to win.

Celtics Claw Back Win In Game 4

Hooped Up | June 13, 2008

Maybe the worst playoff collapse in Lakers history, or the best playoff comeback in Celtics history.  Take your pick. Either way, the Celtics were down by 18 at the half and at one point down by a 24 point margin to the Lakers.  Despite that the Celtics clawed back into the game and pulled out a 97 - 91 victory.

Paul Pierce led the Celtics with 20 points, while Ray Allen  was a key factor down the stretch with 19 points. Lamar Odom led the Lakers with 19 points while Kobe Bryant had 17 points and shot an abismal 6 - 19 from the field.

 The Celtics now only need only one more win for the series an will have a chance Sunday night at the Staples Center.

Lakers “Win” Game 3

Hooped Up | June 12, 2008

Well the chance of a sweep is gone as the Lakers won game three in the Staples Center on Tuesday 81 -87. It wasn’t as much that the Lakers won the game as the Celtics gave them the game. Kobe Bryant scored an efficient 36 points and had Ray Allen looking like he was on skates all night.  Sasha Vujucic was on fire all night for a playoff high of 20 points.

The Celtics for the most part with the exception of Ray Allen offensively two thirds of the big three could not hit anything. Kevin Garnett was 6-21 from the field for 13 points, and Paul Pierce was 2-14 from the field for 6 points.

Despite this woeful shooting the Celtics remained close right to the end, and still had a chance to win as the fourth quarter came to  the final whistle.

If the Celtics forget to show up tonight look for the series to be knotted at two a piece tonight.

Garnett And Celtics Take Game 1

Hooped Up | June 5, 2008

 

After leaving the game with a knee injury Paul Pierce came out of the tunnel from the locker room and led the Celtics to a 98-88 win over the Lakers in Game 1 of the NBA finals.

Kevin Garnett was a beast that had his way with Pau Gasol all night scoring 24 points, Pierce finished with 22, and Ray Allen added 19 for the Celtics. The next game is in Boston Sunday.

Who’s Hungry…..Come And Get It!

Jason Charlemagne |

There are many reviews about the upcoming NBA finals. You can break it down into offense, defence, matchups, X’s and O’s, white kicks, black kicks, and who has the hyper headband.

No matter how you look at it, you can’t pussyfoot around the fact that the team who wants it the most will do what’s more than necessary to win and even play beyond themselves. Read the rest of this entry »
