This game was over from the moment Kendrick Perkins went down with a knee injury at the 5:30 mark of the first quarter. Without Perkins the Celtics were out-rebounded 52-39. The Celtics didn't have the size in the middle to contend with the Lakers for rebounds and it was all over. Perkins said he is going to try and play on Thursday but he sprained both his MCL and ACL ligaments.
With or without Perkins, game 7 should be epic on Thursday. This is the first Finals series since 2005 that has gone the distance, but these two teams are better than San Antonio and Detroit. Should be fun. I'll see if I'm able to do a live blog for the game, it all depends on work.
