Congratulations to the Celtics on their 17th NBA title! Yet another win that proves just how much better than every other city Boston is. 
The AP ran an ecstatic post-game story:
On a new parquet floor below aging championship banners, the Boston Celtics won their 17th NBA title and a first one—at last—for Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen—their Big Three for a new generation. After 22 long years, the NBA has gone green.
Lifted by ear-splitting chants of ”Beat L.A.” from their adoring crowd, which included Boston legends Bill Russell, John Havlicek and JoJo White, the Celtics concluded a shocking rebound of a season with a stunning 131-92 blowout over the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 6 on Tuesday night.
With the outcome assured, Boston fans sang into the night as if they were in a pub on nearby Canal Street. They serenaded the newest champs in this city of champs, and taunted Kobe Bryant and his Lakers, who drowned in a green-and-white wave for 48 minutes.

Whoa, there, I’m going to have to take issue with your statement that Boston is better than every other city. I can think of at least two, and possibly three, that could definitely take on Boston in a big city showdown.
