I guess not, if Minnesota had already built him a statue!

3 of Boston's starting 5 have played for no other team: Pierce, Rondo,
Perkins

Bench: Powe, Davis, Pruitt, Tony Allen

1 of LA's starting 5 Has played for no other team: Bryant

Others: Bynum, Farmar, Vujacic, Turiaf, Walton, Karl

So that 7 players each, with Boston getting more meaningful production
from their "homegrown" talent than LA. I think you better find
another outlet for your pain.

He's got one. That's why his palms are hairy and his glasses are thick.

Our team bought a championship lakerswin? What are you on loser? They
made trades, giving up over half a team to aquire 2 guys. Just because
your guys traded for that pussy Gasol doesnt mean you bought a
championship. Oops thats right you didn't, your team got it's ass handed
to them.

It's really a close call between funny and just plain 'ol sad. They import
players from Europe and try to accuse the Celtics of buying a championship.

For anyone who hasn't looked at (I just did for the first time recently),
the "Commemorative Issue" of SI about the Boston Celtics "Return to Glory"
is really a pretty good issue to have/keep. Most of you know that I'm
usually pretty critical of anything coming from the media, but this was very
well done.
