At the beginning of the series, the Lakers were heavy favorites, primarily because they had the league MVP, Kobe Bryant. But... the Celtics veteran squad was just too much for the Lakers, and Kobe was practically a no-show during the entire series. Well either that or Paul Pierce completely shut him down defensively. The Celtics wanted a championship team at the beginning of the year, and that's exactly what they got; turning a bottom-of-the-barrel lottery team into an NBA Champion.
