Friday's Top Ten Time Wasters - Celtics Vs LeBron James Playoff Moments
Welcome back to Friday’s Top Ten Time Wasters. The Celtics are up two games on the Sixers. The Cavs are up two games on the Raps. I don’t want to count my chickens before they hatch, but the possibility of a Celtics/Cavs Eastern Conference Finals series has me all boned up. So I put together a list of some of the best rivalry building moments between LeBron & Company and the Celtics. Will Boston pick up where they left off in 2011 and reclaim the title of LeBron stopper? I don’t know. But the thought of it gives me goosebumps. Anyway, here are ten of my favorite Celtic/LeBron moments from the Big Three Era.
*Note: Not everything on the list directly involves LeBron but they all contributed to the rivalry.
