Great Series, Lousy Outcome

I'm a lifelong Boston Celtics fan. That's unusual coming from a California boy, but I've always admired the gritty, tough team brand of basketball the Celtics play. Tonight the Celtics joined battle with their most bitter rivals, the L.A. Lakers. The Celtics led at the end of the first, second, and third quarters. But they melted down the stretch and the Lakers won the championship in an epic Game 7.

It was a fantastic championship series. Too bad it had a lousy outcome. Regardless, the Celtics went into the playoffs as the 4th seed in the Eastern Conference. Nobody expected them to reach the Finals. They had a great season and made all of us Celtics fans proud.
