“Last night is when you really started to hate the Celtics”

This is an absolutely magnificent piece written from our friends enemies over at Reds Army. In it, he talks about how for the first time in this year’s NBA Finals, last night made the younger generation of Lakers fans truly hate the Celtics again; how this rivalry now became personal.

RedsArmy: But for young Lakers fans last night… that was the moment when the rivalry became real. It became personal. The old, grainy highlights of guys in short shorts don’t matter anymore… because last night is when you really started to hate the Celtics.

    No, last night was when we really started to hate the Lakers. Up by 24 in the game then lose by 7. That is really embarassing and disgraceful. I commend the Celtics because they at least play with heart, whereas the Lakers showed NONE of it during the 2nd half. Lakers will learn their lesson once they lose this series and hopefully come out even stronger next season.

    As Laker fans, old and young, we should always HATE the Celtics. If you’re a young Laker fan reading this, you should know, the Celtics are our oldest rivals. You should ALWAYS HATE the Celtics, no matter who is on their team. I’ve always hated them and I loved it when they were in darkness for 21 years.

    All Laker fans should hate the Boston Celtics, PERIOD!!!!
