Sports have always been about taking advantage of the moment, and that’s what makes them so great; it’s what makes them so unexpected, heartbreaking, or fun.

I’ve always been a basketball fan, and these past NBA final games have been very entertaining because that reason.

Also, when teams get to game seven, it’s all up for grabs.

I loved the fact that Glen Davis and Nate Robinson have become key contributors to their team.

Who could have thought?

They have a team that is loaded with all-stars, and they’re the ones who have been making big plays when no one else is able to.

Their plays show their relentlessness to want to win a game, and I think that’s why everyone loves them.

Glen Davis became unstoppable in game five during the finals-something completely unexpected to the L.A. coach, Phil Jackson.

“There’s not too many times you get a chance to be in the finals and be a part of something so great that you can never really imagine yourself even being here,” Davis said in an interview on ESPN. “I just couldn’t be denied today.”

The Celtics seem to be the underdogs now that their starting center, Andrew Perkins, is out of the game because of an injury.

Even though Perkins is out, that only makes Wallace and Glen Davis able to get more minutes.

Wallace is known as an emotional player, which usually gets the best of him because of foul trouble.

There are no games after game seven which puts him at an advantage. Hopefully Davis is able to get another great performance on the final game.

It’s all up to the Celtics to keep a fast paced game if they want to win the game because that’s what seems to be working.

Kobe Bryant is a legend. He’ll be hard to stop, and all they can do is contain him.

I’m really looking forward to the NBA championship game, and it should be a very exciting game.

I want the Celtics to win, but I seriously have no clue if they will win since they were shut down on their sixth game against the Lakers.

Hopefully game seven doesn’t end up being a heartbreak for me.
