History repeats itself. These two rival team have accumulated all the experience they need to reach the NBA finals. Though they still need to pass through the conference finals with a very competitive teams, it's very much possible for the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers to face each other in the NBA finals this year. It would be a battle of veterans, experience, perseverance and teamwork and would be the best match up of the year.

If the Lakers continue their type of play I don't see them beating the Celtics. The Celtics defense is playing way to good right now and their offense is playing up to playoff status quo. Therefore If the Celtics score at least 100 points the Lakers would most likely lose.

You also cant forget that the Celtics beat the Cavaliers with ease. The Cavaliers and the Lakers are very similar in terms of team overall. The difference is the triangle offense, and the coaching staff. But their players are almost identical in which the PG cannot handle rondo, the SG cant come off screens easy enough to stop Allen the PF are to slow to beat Kevin Garnett and the centers are better then Perkins. And both the cavaliers and the Lakers only have one real clutch man in Kobe and Lebron.

I am personally calling Celtics in 6. Kobe waiting another year for number 5 and the "big 4" getting number 2. I think it is a 40% chance the Lakers win the finals.
