Last night,the NBA Finals beganwith the Boston Celtics taking Game 1 over the Los Angeles Lakers, 98-88. Celtics power forward Kevin Garnett finished the game with a double-double (24 points and 13 rebounds), and perhaps it was fated to be so — last night, during ABC’s NBA Pre-Game show, a thirty-second commercial revealed that he will appear on the cover of this year’s installment of 2K Sports’NBA 2K9.
