"What are they going to say now?" - Kevin Garnett, NBA Champion
The Boston Celtics are the 2008 NBA Champions. After going through 5 hard fought games by both themselves and the Lakers, the Celtics rolled in a NBA Finals record 39-point title clinching win. Once again, it was a complete team effort for a team that prided itself on the word, "ubuntu." Paul Pierce was named Finals MVP, but for Talkhoops.net editor, Zach Harper, this was all about Kevin Garnett validating his career. After joining Kevin Garnett in some post-game, celebratory tears, Zach Harper recaps what this means for his fellow Timberwolves and Kevin Garnett fans. Click the Series Page below for the recap.
