Big Game James; now in Celtics green!

Am I the only one excited about the prospect of the sudden re-emergence of "small-ball" in the finals? It's like somebody taught the Suns how to play defense. The only downside is that with only one big guy patrolling the paint, help defense on Kobe is gonna be tough. However, with Jesus' sudden and inexplicable resurrection as a defensive stopper and Tony Allen's return from injury, Boston now has 4 different guys capable of chasing Kobe around and making life difficult for him. Perhaps help defense wont be an issue with fresh legs always standing between Kobe and the bucket.

All is not doom and gloom for the Lakers though.
