VOD: Truth vs Lebron in a duel for the ages

With today being Thursday, and the Celts & Cavs getting ready to do battle, I thought what a perfect occasion for a great throwback video. The year was 2008. The Boston Celtics were looking to cap a fantastic regular season with their first championship in over 20 years. The Cleveland Cavaliers on the other hand were looking for their second Finals appearance in as many years, having been swept by the Spurs in 2007. The two teams met for Game 7 of their semifinal series on May 18th, 2008 and what a game it was. In an instant classic, Paul Pierce and Lebron James took turns hitting big shot after big shot.
