"I'm really not that proud of this. Because our goal is to win a championship. We didn't say we were going to come into this year and beat the Cleveland Cavaliers in the playoffs. Our goal is a championship. We can be excited for one night, winning a game and a series, but I don't look at this like it made our season. The only thing that's going to make our season is winning a championship. We have those type of goals around here. You look at some teams, they get moral victories for hanging around in a series or winning one series. Not here in Boston. We get excited when we put that banner up." Paul Pierce.
A-f***in-Men!
Hey, I'm back on the bandwagon!
Go C's!
Now seriously, Doc Rivers sounded like a buffoon all year long, saying the Celts just needed to get in to the playoffs and then the switch would be turned on. Well, he was kinda right. The Garnett being healthy is still they key for this team. He's not the same player of 2 years ago, but he's still the defensive leader, and his passion drives this team.
Magic are gonna be tough. They're the best team playing right now IMO. Still, the Celts have showed that they won't back down and they're not scared of any team.
Can't wait for Sunday.
