Dolby Stereo? They couldn't even fake mix it into 5.1? I thought the stuff on TNT was broadcast in 5.1, maybe not. Still it should be a great documentary of a great team having a great season. Go Green!

I'm not a basketball fan but 2:40:1 for a sports DVD? 1:78:1 is the typical ratio. That's interesting

Let's hope this disk sells well enough that they'll release some more NBA (especially Celtics) stuff on BD! Let's also hope the Sox win the series again so we can get two Boston Sports Championships in a year along with two BDs!

They should have put last year's Sox WS win on blu-ray. Then we would have had 2 championship BDs.

Warner better not make too many of these. I don't see them selling much outside of Boston.

Dolby Digital 2.0? Are you kidding me? Warner is just getting lazy now and playing cheap. First only DD 5.1 on some there Blu-ray's now this. I guess the die hard BC fans will pick this up.

Not great transfer, also doesn't even had the full game. Rental the most out of this. I rather wait for Michael Jordan or Allstar game in BD,

I'm not trying to defend any party here, but there are still many a professional sports broadcast that don't adhere to the rules of HDTV - 5.1 channel audio. Depending on where you go, it's a limitation of broadcast truck, arena, transmission, or simple lack of proper equipment. Of course, you can expect more and more sports broadcasts to go 5.1 in the future, but the sports television industry has been slow to adapt.

I will say however--the lack of 5.1 sound available throughout the entire Celtics season should have dissuaded Warner to release this on blu-ray.
