Did You Know...

Even as we say “Congratulations” to the Orlando Magic, who beat the Celtics 4 games to 3 to advance to the Conference Finals in the 2009 NBA Playoffs, we want to say a big “Thank you” to the Boston Celtics, winners of the Atlantic Division, for the exciting season they had!

Ending the season with the best record in the league and topping it off with an NBA Finals win, the Boston Celtics dominated the 2007-08 season. An argument could be made that the team has no where to go but down, but as the team remains largely unchanged, there’s no reason to think they can’t churn out a repeat performance. They did lose their most important bench player, James Posey, to the New Orleans Hornets, but the "Boston Three Party", NBA Finals MVP Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett, are still on the roster, and it’s all going to come down to them. If they can stay healthy, the team has a very good chance of taking home the NBA Championship title again. Though everyone was impressed with the Big Three’s performance last season, head coach Doc Rivers thinks relative newcomers Garnett and Allen should only improve as they become more acclimated to the team. With an average attendance rate of 100%, tickets to TD Banknorth Garden won’t be around for long, so if you want to watch the Celts fight their way to the top in the 2008-09 season, get your tickets today!
