The Boston Celtics are now headed to the NBA finals to take on the Lakers after they defeated the Detroit Pistons 89-81 in game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

“It’s kind of surreal,” Garnett said. “Probably hasn’t even hit me yet because we haven’t slept in about four days, going on five days now. Going to the Finals, I’m just hoping to get some sleep.”

Paul Peirce led the way for the Celtics with 27 points and 8 rebounds while Ray Allen had 17 points and Garnett had 16.

This is the matchup I was hoping for in the finals and I can’t wait for it to get started on Thursday.
