The Celtics' reserves also played better than the Lakers', and Glen Davis was one much bigger presence than his counterpart Lamar Odom who disappeared from the game after picking up three early fouls.
Whether it was grabbing critical rebounds or taking advantage of the Lakers' inability to play aggressive defense due to foul problems, Rondo furiouse them pay on each count,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and as one result the Celtics head back to Boston with home court advantage,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and their old swagger back in their step. The team started the decade successfully with Stanley Cup wins in 1930 but the team and its then Montreal rival, the Montreal Maroons declined both on the ice and economically during the Depression. Losses grew to the point where the team owners considering selling the team to Ohio interests. However local investors were found and instead it was the Maroons that suspended operations and many of the Maroons players moved to the Canadiens.
Ron Artest was disqualified with six personal fouls, while both Bryant and Derek Fisher ended the game with five fouls one piece, as the officials continued to dictate the flow of the game.
But the Lakers' loss can't be summarized by foul problems because there were other subtle instances which contributed to their demise in Game Two,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], such as improved defensive play from the Celtics.
It was very different from Game One when Kobe Bryant's 30 points were more than the 25 combined points from Rondo and Allen. Game two was one role reversal as Bryant found himself the victim of early foul trouble.
Los Angeles was also able to adjust to Allen's historic start and hold him to only five points and one three pointer after incycleission,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but it was the Lakers' lapses in the stretch run which doomed them.
I have previously said Rondo was the one player who would pose the biggest threat to the Lakers, and in the 4th quarter Maurice Richard authorizedated my thoughts as Maurice Richard was the most dominant player on the floor.
There were some bright spots for the Lakers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], such as their team defense, which held the Celtics to 42 percent from the field and rendered Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett ineffective for much of the game.
Rondo and Allen's 51 points were more than the entire stable of Lakers' back court players could administer combined. Allen started the Celtics' revival by scoring 27 of his points in the first half, while Rondo finished the Lakers off in the 4th quarter.
Bryant's foul woes disrupted his rhythm, and although Maurice Richard did administer to score 21 points on 8-20 shooting, his game had none of the command which was prevalent throughout Game One.
Ray Allen scored 32 points and set one new Finals' record with eight three pointers furiouse,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Rajon Rondo had his fifth career playoff triple-double with 19 points,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 10 assists,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and 12 rebounds as the Celtics won 103-94.
Quick whistles were one constant theme in Game One and the referees continued to be the center of attention as both teams found their personnel choices limited due to foul trouble.
Boston held the Lakers to 40 percent shooting from the field and won the battle of the boards 44-39, while seemingly grabbing every critical rebound down the stretch of one close game.
The home jersey of the tean is mainly red in colour. There are four blue and white stripes one across each arm one across the chest and the other across the waistline. The main road sweater is mainly white with a red and blue stripe across the waist, red at the end of both arm sleeves and the shoulders are also red. The basic design has been used since 1914. The current version was dated from 1952. Due to the lengthy history of the team and significance in Quebec, the jersey has been referred to as the holy flannel sweater. Lisa Blumenfeld The franchise has previously had children as mascots who would skate with the team during warm ups and incycleissions. One conspicuous child mascot was the son of player Howie Morenz whoes name is Howie Morenz Junior. Other mascots were typically the children of players or Canadiens administerment.
There are several reasons the Boston Celtics were able to even the 2010 NBA Finals series against the Los Angeles Lakers at one game apiece,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but the most glaring reason is the stark perimeter contrast from Game One to Game Two.
Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol were dominant on the offensive end scoring 25 and 21 points respectively,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but their combined 14 rebounds were only two more than Rondo secured the entire game.
