The history of the Lakers vs Celtics Rivalry

[confused674]

I am a Miami Heat fan but i will admit this is the greatest rivalry and two teams in sports history

[MultiBlackjack24]

can we all just agree these are two greatest franchise in the league, I'm a die hard laker fan but got great respect for the Celtics

[greendynasty32]

Thats the think. You are gonna see lots of Laker fans respect especially the Auerbach-Russell's and Bird's Celtics. But because the C's SUCK for ONE THIRD of their history and the Championships are 17-16 now is time to refer to the 9-3 finals and the +1 Championship. The numbers dont lie and the Lakers won in every era and it was THEM against someone either when they won a Championship either not. Every team has bad years or mediocre years. The Celts didn't had that. For 2 decades they SUCKED.

[greendynasty32]

@greendynasty32 So no if a C's fan sees only what he want's he can light up a cigar and put it where he knows. I respect Russell and Bird. I don't respect every dumb C's fan tha thinks that his Celtics are great even when they lose BIG.

[EltonMarkHuerta]

@greendynasty32 Dude Len Bias died, its a big lost for C's. Understand the circumstances

[1990Thunderbolt]

t least we're still better than the Celtics even now. Llook at your big three their getting old, they will retire soon and who's going to lead the team pshh Rondo? >.< Fat chance of Boston going to the finals ever again. I can assure they can make it to the playoffs even without the big three but they'll just get ass out of the first round

[iamroadrash824]

Fuck the Lakers and their fans. Go Celtics

[Kayvonix]

@iamroadrash824 how original

[Killermama98]

Lakers like it in the ass

[chocoluver4]

i will always say "GO LAKERS" but i will never say "FUCK BOSTON"

i hate boston but i will never discourage them like that. they're good and so r the lakers...that's how this rivalry began

[ThroughTheBox]

@chocoluver4 i rspect that you actually have respect instead of those other dumb fans who started watching when kobe was around

[vincethegoat1]

What a classic nba rivalry behind the sixers celtics Go Sixers

[braid781]

LAKERS #1 FUCK boston

[braid781]

LAKERS #1 FUCK THE celtics

[braid781]

LAKERS #1 FUCK THE celtics

[Killermama98]

hold up... y not show the 2010 finals? cuz no1 likes the Lakers, and stop making excuses bynum was injured in 2008 ok ur saying u guys could hav beaten us in 08 if he were 2 not b injured?

[Killermama98]

also, who has the most titles? STFU ITS CELTICS WITH 17 AND LAKERS 16

[Killermama98]

Celtics hav beaten the Lakers more. not even speaking of history, who got swept this year unlike the Celtics? and Lakers make 2 many excuses (omg Bynum was injured in 08 ok fine excuse kg was injured in 09 thats y we lost 2 magic in semifinals, and perkins was njured in '10 so of course u guys would beat us) but u guys make excuses of reffs (omg reffs sucked!) ok Celtics own, although stil,l Bostonian. Lakers nor Celtics r best team now, it belongs 2 my 2nd favorite team, Miami Heat.

[teacherryen77]

The Lakers gave that '84 title away...What a choke out...I don't know which was more painful for me; '84 or '91 championship losses...Lakers forever!

[diplo33]

purple and gold is still for bitches and hoez! lol go cee's

[diplo33]

i love too see all the celtic fans with logical points on this video! :) keep it up and go celtics!!

[Fifastarful]

Lakers 16 NBA championships have only miss the play off 5 times never finish with the worst record in the NBA. The celdick finish with the worst record in the nba in the 06-07 season an ya call your team the best thats sad.

[emersonfelix12]

Lets Go Celtics!

[RajonRondoist]

CELTICCSSSSSSSSSS :DD

[roccomaniac1]

I gotta say being a fan of neither team i gotta say the celtics have a better franchise. the celtics have more titles and are 10x smaller than the market LA is. If boston was the same size of media market the celtics would kick their ass. The celtics also have more postseason wins and regular season wins.

[Samuelx123x]

Championships: Celtics 17 - Lakers 16

Finals between each other: Celtics 9 - Lakers 3

Go Celtics!!!

[TheAngelNation]

And in 2010, the two legenary teams meet in the NBA Finals once again. Both teams were great in the first six games but Kobe and the Lakers were the ones who won the deciding game 7.

[jaredkeating23]

@TheAngelNation False, the celtics lost it for themselves in game seven. If i remember correctly we had a 13 point lead and then we let confidence get the best of us and then we started getting careless with the ball and were out rebounded and out hustled.

[ray93950]

great video. the guy speaking did a great job

[GMoneyStillTippin420]

Fuck dem hollywood homo faggot flakah bitches, CELTICS RULE!!

[Makaveli5458]

@ramirezr16 the lakers have always had entertaining players

[Makaveli5458]

Main difference between the 2 is the L.A. LAkers are more entertaining

[Ramirezr16]

@Makaveli5458 Having the best player in the game will do that!

[diplo33]

@Makaveli5458 celtics were so entertaining in game 4 of the 2008 finals...that comeback was so legendary

[Makaveli5458]

Thumbs up if u wann punch Steve nash in the face every time u see him

[diplo33]

@Makaveli5458 punch steve nash in the face???? wtf hell no that nigga is a beast

[Makaveli5458]

@diplo33 he's shit! period

[diplo33]

@Makaveli5458 nigga u shit! nash is a beast! dont be a cock sucker!

[RenownedRyan]

A rivalry of mutual respect. Both teams are unquestionably the two best in basketball history.

[1newfamily]

ahy yo zeeboe suck my dickkkkkk!!!!! CAELTICS ^^

[MRFittedcap5950]

Best rivalry ever. Hope to see more Laker-Celtics finals in the future.

[dancer04105]

And guess who is up in # of championships right now? thats right the Celtics TEAM... not the Lakers with friggen Kobe... not even a team. its all ABOUT KOBE...F HIM!!

[TheAnamaniac5]

@dancer04105 without kobe the lakers are worth shit! CELTICS ALL DAY!!!

[MRFittedcap5950]

@TheAnamaniac5 Without Garnett & Allen, Celtics were worth shit as well. So suck on that! It's even, i guess.

[ScarButta]

@MRFittedcap5950 without gasul or kobe, the lakers wouldnt be anywhere

[MRFittedcap5950]

@ScarButta Every Team needs superstars to succeed. Look at the celtics. With only Paul pierce, they couldn't win a championship. All of a sudden with Ray Allen and KG, and they go to 2 NBA finals and win one. That's how sports are, unfortunately. Look at the Lakers. Everybody said when magic and kareeem retire lakers aren't gonna be shit. When Chamberlain and West retire, lakers arent gonna be shit. Well now lakers have Kobe and gasol. And when they retire, they'll make someone else a superstar.

[MRFittedcap5950]

@ScarButta Lakers always find someobody to build their team around. That's what makes this franchise so great. So yes, Kobe and gasol make this team who they are now a days. When one 0f them struggle, the team does horrible. When they play well, thye're unbeatable. Same with the celtics and the heat. and bulls. Every great team depends on at least one person to carry them. Lakers=Kobe. Celtics=Allen, KG, Pierce, Rondo=Heat=James, Wade,Bosh. Bulls=Rose. Mavs=Nowitzki. Spurs=Ginobli.Duncan.Parker.

[Ramirezr16]

MAGIC!!! LARRY'S GOING TO KILL YOU!!! THERES NO MAGIC IN HERE!!!!!

[Emanuelknicks]

Screw Kobe Bryant and the rest of the Hollywood Takers.

[Thewilliamdicks]

@Emanuelknicks your saying that coz your green shit lost to the lakers in a game 7

[diplo33]

@Emanuelknicks called them the los angeles takers!!! lmao!!!



[Jiltedin2007]

And the Lakers are owning this rivalry now!

[diplo33]

@Jiltedin2007 not even bro! they probably only won 10 championships in LA we dont count when they werent in LA>..celtics got 17 in boston period! fuck the fake show! oh yea i was born and raise in La pops was a cee's fan only faggots wear purple and gold

[Jiltedin2007]

@diplo33 Then why don't you catch the next plane to Boston! You live in Los Angeles, and you root for the Celtics? I think the next plane leaving for Boston will take off in 10 minutes.

[Tmacsooner]

@Jiltedin2007 Maybe you should take a plane to any other city with an NBA team since your lakers got swept like my kitchen floor.

[Jiltedin2007]

@Tmacsooner You have no leg to stand on! You also lost in the Second Round. After beating the Heat like a drum all season long, all of a sudden you became Lebron's Bitches? Enjoy an Early Summer!

[Tmacsooner]

@Jiltedin2007 Haha the Heat unlike the Mavericks have 3 allstars? And unlike the Choking lakers we could actually put up a fight in all 5 games while the Mavericks were shoving their dicks down Kobes mouth. Hows being Dirk's bitch? Enjoy yours too ass hole.

[Jiltedin2007]

@Tmacsooner Go choke on Danny Ainge's Dick!

[diplo33]

@Tmacsooner hahahahahaha sweep!!!! celtics dont get swept!

[diplo33]

@Jiltedin2007 nigga its like 2 million celtic fans in LA so ain't no planes going nowhere...and we always better than the fake show

[Jiltedin2007]

@diplo33 The NBA is now in Lockout, and they will be for a very, very long time. Do you really care? Only God knows how long we will be without Basketball.

[jaredkeating23]

@Jiltedin2007 I'm lost without basketball..

[Jiltedin2007]

@jaredkeating23 Aren't we all? The Lakers are the Bloodlife of Los Angeles!

I am just as lost as you are without NBA basketball.

[diplo33]

@Jiltedin2007 shit i need basketball this season!!!!!! nfl can only hold my attention for so long as well as baseball smh....

[Jiltedin2007]

@diplo33 Don't we all? Right now, I don't care about this Lakers-Celtics Rivalry when you see NBA Basketball about to be in a Lockout for possibly the entire 2011-2012 Season and beyond. The Owners and the Players are as far apart as Los Angeles and Paris. I don't care about anything now, but wondering when will the Lockout be removed and the NBA back in action.

[lalotrejo]

@Jiltedin2007 lol they met 12 times, lakers won 3 times and the celtics won 9 times, yup they sure are owning it up /sarcasm

[Jiltedin2007]

@lalotrejo Are you really sure about that?!

[lalotrejo]

@Jiltedin2007 check their history, at least the celtics didnt get swept like the two time defending champs lol

[GMoneyStillTippin420]

@lalotrejo Haha I know right? Celtics- lose 4-1 and Rondo plays through a broken arm and the Celtics duke it out like a team who always play with class and honor. LA Fakers go down getting swept and Odom plays dirty and Bynum throws a little hissy fit tantrum just like Kobe Cryant did when he wanted a trade. Haha Flakers 16 Celtics 17 Lakers don't own this rivalry, they'll always be imitators trailing behind the 17 time world champion Boston Celtics.

[Tmacsooner]

@Jiltedin2007 Not so much...

[Jiltedin2007]

@Tmacsooner Are you sure about that?

[jaredkeating23]

@Jiltedin2007 Really? We split this season and you won in 2010 and we won in 2008, that's not fucking owning shit you dumb fuck!

[THAxTRUTH508]

@Jiltedin2007 Lmao Celtics are 9-3 vs the Lakers in the Finals so please remind me again how they own this rivarly

[greendynasty32]

@THAxTRUTH508 oh yeah Celtics are having 7 of their 9 wins in the Russel area and West and Baylor are to blame because they made the mistake to make the finals 7 times. When the Lakers had a better team WITH playoff wining mentality the Celtics wheren't there at all. That's a good way to keep the percentages up.

Congrats. You have a winning Finals record against the greatest Franchise in basketball. What? 11 in 13 years? What about 7 in 8 years missing the playoffs?

[THAxTRUTH508]

@greendynasty32 Lmao the Russell area,sorry i don't reply to retards.

[greendynasty32]

@THAxTRUTH508 a typo is a good excuse to not answer when you don't have something to say.

[Flipper79able]

@greendynasty32 You can make all the excuses in the world but numbers don't lie and we have 17 championships.....anyway you slice it. At least we have real fans out here anyway. Lakers fans have been notoriously flaky and fair weathered. Sure, you got a couple of celebrities coming to your games but see how many fans show up when Kobe retires. L.A. is a fake ass town. Boston #!.

[greendynasty32]

@Flipper79able the Lakers have 17 National Championship on their own and if the Celtics had a championship in the old NBL i will have and other greens scream about it in order to have not just one but 2 plus championships. The numbers say 17 and the 11 came from a team that was led by one man. Bill Russel. That with all the HOFs of the era shows that this was the Greatest dynasty

After that the C's have 6 Championships to show in what...42 years? The best dynasty by far the best franchise nope.

[greendynasty32]

@Flipper79able And its obvious that a Lakers fan from outside LA or even outside USA wouldn't love the Lakers if Nicholson and Cannon weren't Lakers fans. LA was always a fancy city and the Lakers became what was and is acceptable by them but you know they play basketball too and they are successfull. Do you want to talk about the fans? What to say about it when everyone like you thinks that Staples is packed from Hollywood stars from the first row to the exits?

[greendynasty32]

@Flipper79able Now about Kobe, i saw Magic leaving and the team in the early 90s losing conistantly but the people was there because after 1-2 years the young roster was offering a show again even though there weren't any Championship ideas. How about your team? Did you have a sellout crowd when the C's were struggling? Don't act like the blue collar talking to the fancy Lakers fans. I saw "fancy" Lakers teams beat up Boston teams and the Boston teams whining because they used to otherwise.

[willsmackyoudown]

@greendynasty32

Reggie and Len dying... Of course Hollywood sells out lol.

[VanOstrum]

 Russell has stated that his father became his childhood hero, later followed up by Minneapolis Lakers superstar George “Mr. Basketball” Mikan, whom he met when he was in high school.

[FFYDZ34567890]

fuck you too fuck the lakers!

[Zeeboe]

Fuck the Celtics and their fans. Go Lakers.

[ScarButta]

@Zeeboe yeah lets see em win one WITHOUT A SEAT IN THE SEMIS

[ThroughTheBox]

@Zeeboe You just another lakers fan

[Zeeboe]

[soccerpai]
