The reason LA lost was the Celtic defense. Tom Thibodeau is a big reason why the Celtics were able to limit Kobe's offense. They kept switching on Kobe, not letting him get into a comfort zone. I have to admit, I was nervous when he hit 3 three's in the first quarter. I thought it was going to be one of those days.

The Celtics number one reason for the success this year was that their best players (the second big 3) bought into defense as their backbone. When your key player (KG) plays defense, hustles, and demands that other players play with the same intensity as he does, the team will be successful. It was a great season, and a long-time coming!
