The Boston Celitcs?
A fan since I was a little kid. Watched Larry win the final flag in 1986.

And now this?

For shame.

1. You never saw Larry Bird smiling after missing free throws like
Paul Pierce was doing. And it wasn't just once at the line. He smiled all night as he missed shots at the charity stripe. If Atlanta wins this series, and I seriously doubt they can, it will be the greatest choke in basketball history.

I'd be happy with Hornets-Sixers. Does America want a Prima Donna final? Nah!

14. Take the question mark ? off the OP

The Celts made a statement today in Game 7 against the Atlanta Hawks, and demonstrated that they are going FORWARD in the NBA playoffs. Final score - Boston 99 Atlanta 65.

Props to the Hawks for a great, gutsy series. Too bad you got blown out in Game 7, but that's the way the roundball bounces sometimes. Your team put on a good show. See you next season.

Boston Celtics Dancers exult!

16. They made a statement
"Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."
This is our gym. Don't come here expecting to win.
