Can hardly remember the last time an opening round series in the NBA Playoffs has been so intreging as that of the Celtics - Bulls. Game 6 just finished after 3-OT's with the Bull's NBA Rookie of the Year Derrick Rose blocking Celt's Rajon Rondo's potential game winner to give the Bull's a 129-127 victory. That's 4 out of the six games inthis series that has gone into overtime. We may be showing our grey's but is this the best opening round ever? There have been great series in the past, Knick's - Celtics of the 70's, Knick's - Bull's of the 90's (and we know it's us looking through our Knick colored glasses, so send in your best remembered series to This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it and help us out) and many others. But none have gone with 4 overtimes. You know we are rooting for a 6 overtime "thrilla" for game 7. Somehow a blow-out just would't be right. |
