Old Celtics still bring it when they need to
It’s time for everybody to stop making “KG turned back the clock last night” references over and over again. And we don’t need to hear anymore of those “Garnett gave us a a vintage 2004 performance” comments every other day. It’s just dumb. Kevin Garnett is very very good. Right now.

The Celtics seemed to be pulling away. But then they started to look old. And tired. And slow. Over the next six and a half minutes Boston scored...
Don’t blame the PG
When Ray Allen drained a 3 with 2:41 to go last night, tying the game at 83-83 and bringing the Celtics back from a big second half deficit for the second time, my buddy and I simultaneously texted each about how amazing a game it was.
