The Boston Celtics got the better off their arch rivals Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA finals Game 1 last Thursday night at Boston by virtue of a tremendous comeback by Paul Pierce after treating an injured knee that he sustained during the game. The final result showed 98-88 in favor of Celtics and LA Lakers will have to buck up their game in a bid to take home the second game. Kevin Garnett top scored with 24 points, but it was Pierce’s determination in spite of suffering the pains of a damaged knee that stole the limelight on Thursday. The keenly fought Game 1 will surely increase the sale of tickets in the remaining clashes between the two basketball giants.
