When was the last time an NBA Finals reached an intensifying Game 7? If the data is correct from Wikipedia, it was 2005 when San Antonio Spurs won over Detroit Pistons. Yet it was not fought between LA Lakers and Boston Celtics.

The two team are established during the early seasons of NBA. In 1947 to 1956 was Lakers reigning those years followed by Celtics from 1957 to 1969. The years Lakers and Celtics rivalries was at its peak in 1980 to 1990. It was the decade of Earvin “Magic” Johnson and Larry Bird continued after their universities met in NCAA championship, Michigan University and Indiana State respectively.

Scanning the history of Celtics vs Lakers, there are season worth noting. Years 1962, 1966, 1969 and 1984 was the seasons’ in NBA that finals reached game 7 and I guess it was really a great experience to have watched those championship and seeing Boston Celtics claiming those titles. This year is really fortunate not only by fans of both teams especially those who have not been born or were too young to understand the game. I was then 3 years old to watch the 1984 championship and guess would not love to watch it either way.

This Thursday at 9PM ET will be the greatest challenge to Celtics and Lakers. Who will be the one will draw another prestigious mark in NBA history? Will Celtics hit their 18th championship or Lakers for their 11th. Will Lakers be able to get their revenge after being swept by Celtics in 2008 NBA championship?

Let’s wait and see then. You can watch NBA 2010 Celtics vs Lakers Game 7 Live streaming here. This post will be updated once video streams are available.
