By one in OT

Yes Thurday we (the celtics) lost to them (the lakers) by one in overtime. It was probably the best game I've been to at the Garden. The score was close the entire time & each team played tough. Overall it was well worth the $130 price tag on an originally $28 ticket. I've wanted to see Kobe play for a while, even though I don't really like him. He's a good player, I can't deny that, doesn't mean I have to like him. Anyways over the years I've seen the Mavericks (1st pro game ever), Cavaliers (multiple times, playoffs included), Hawks (playoffs last year), Nets (multiple times, playoffs included), Jazz vs. Knicks (solely for madison square garden & Mehmet Okur), Bulls, I think I've seen the spurs, and now I can add Lakers to that list. Going to games is probably one of my favorite things to do. Oh what I would do for season tickets.
As you can see by the scoreboard the excitement in the Garden was well worth the money.


But, I went with two Lakers (specifically Kobe I believe) fans who loved winning in Boston. They got into it a bit with some of my fellow Celtic fans.


Bobby (the one with the pole going through his face) is my cousins uncle. If that makes any sense to you. It's not that difficult really, he's her dads brother. Anyways we're about the same age & have been friends for a few years now. His cousin Jimmy (orange sweatshirt) paid $260 for his $28 ticket because they didn't tell me he was serious about coming until the day of. He was a little upset until the game was over, then he agreed it was completely worth the money!
