i was gonna put DJ, but since he hasn't been accepted in the hall of fame i figured i'd leave him out of the top level of C's (even though we know that he belongs there)

  • You know my methods, Watson.
dee brown...

i remember when the rumors were swirling that the celtics were going to draft this high-flying speedster from jacksonville state that would be a difference-maker.  before he was injured he was a very good basketball player and fun to watch.  he didn't look like a rookie during his first trip to the playoffs...

Dominique Wilkins.

Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Although it pains me to say it... my childhood favorite (other than the bigs that i listed) was Ron Mercer.

Kendrick Perkins. I just love the guy. Love his style, love his work ethic, love his expressions and his swagger, love how he's furious ALL THE TIME, and love how much better he's made himself.

I've voted for him every time in the all-star balloting. 
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

Don't worry, he'll prove his worth again down the stretch when all the fans remember that his game is about more than just shooting.

Here are a few of my favorites (I had a thing for the early 90s Celtics):





(this pose makes a great trading card pic)

I should add that I absolutely loved the 1990-91 Skybox set. The cutout players on top of funky designs. Great look.

I'm a huge Leon Powe fan, I give the guy alot of respect, he always plays his hardest every night. Tommy said he wants to give  Leon a medal, well he deserves one.
True Celtic = Leon Powe

Bring back the show!!!!
