Celtics are NBA

At the end of the day, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and the Celtics accomplished their mission since Day One - winning a NBA title.Never mind the regular season dominance at 66-16, or the struggles with Atlanta or Cleveland, the most important thing, the Larry O'Brien trophy in now in their hands, as the Boston Celtics thumped the LA Lakers 131-92.Garnett totally sliced apart the Lakers defence, finishing with 26 points and 14 rebounds. Allen also finished well with 26 points, and Pierce quietly contributed 17 points.Kobe Bryant collected 22 points on 7 of 22 shooting, but struggled mightily in the second half scoring only 8 points. His supporting cast of Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom contributed 11 points and 14 points respectively as the Green Machine roared on.
