Los Angeles Lakers defensive specialist Ron Artest was the main man in the game seven victory of his team over the Celtics that gave him his first National Basketball Association crown in his many years in the premier professional basketball league in the planet. In the first six games of the National Basketball Association Finals Los Angeles Lakers defensive specialist Ron Artest made waves through his superb defense against Boston Celtics superstar forward Paul "Truth" Pierce. Artest had a great job in the defensive end in the NBA Finals which help carry the Lakers to tie the best of seven NBA Finals to three games a piece. On the seventh and deciding game of the NBA Finals, Artest elevated further his game as he added some scoring punches to his game to contribute heavily to the Laker's victory over the Celtics 83-79 to retain its NBA championship this NBA season. The veteran forward had 20 important points to help his team get the victory over the equally determined Celtics who lead majority of the games until a Lakers rally foil its attempt to reclaim the NBA crown this year. Artest was very inspired in the game as he scored crucial points for the Lakers to foil the Celtics aim to get a victory in game seven and gave the team its 18th championship since entering the NBA league. The defensive specialist is very happy with their victory especially that he is very instrumental in it by scoring much needed points for the team. The NBA crown is the first for Artest after his many years in the NBA. Lakers superstar guard Kobe "Black Mamba" Bryant was not in his usual high scoring self as he wound up only with 23 points but such points are still sufficient to lead the Lakers to their repeat championship over their arch-rival Celtics. Despite a limited scoring output, Bryant contributed heavily in the other facets of the game particularly in rebounding and assist to ensure the Celtics could not celebrate with a championship in their own home-floor. With his over-all brilliance in the entire seven games of the series, Bryant was also declared as most valuable players in the Finals. Bryant is very ecstatic with their victory and championship and thanked his teammates for helping him achieve their goal of retaining their NBA crown over the Celtics. He said the team will do its best to achieve a three-peat next year. The Celtics for its part made a great effort despite the absence of its starting center Kendrick Perkins but the NBA championship belong to the Lakers in the end. Celtics superstar power-forward Kevin "Kid" Garnett and rising Celtics point-guard Rajon Rondo both had a monster game but their effort were not enough to deny the Lakers the championship. NBA veteran power-forward and newly acquired Celtic Rashed wallance also had a great game as replacement for Perkins but the Lakers proved stronger in the end. Celtics coach Doc Rivers praised the fighting spirit of his players but credited the Lakers for a much stronger game that lead to their victory. Rivers said the Lakers played a great game that made them deserving to win the NBA crown this year. Now that the NBA Finals is over, the possibility that the Celtics will remain intact in the next NBA season is quite remote. Celtics sharpshooting guard Ray Allen has an expiring contract and Rivers is seriously thinking of quitting as coach for the team. Get your Cheap Los Angeles Lakers Tickets
