Most Surprisingly Effective 80's Celtic

Is it just me or does anyone else really appreciate how great Dennis Johnson was as a scorer/defender/hassler, etc?

I never hear his name mentioned like Bird/Parrish/Ainge/Chief... but DJ should be in that list.

i'm not sure how long you've been a member of this blog, but dj gets his dues 'round here.

and rightly so, the guy was sensational. the fact he isn't yet a member of the hall of fame is a disgrace.

I think amongst knowledgeable Celtics fans, DJ is considered a member of the de facto "Big Four".  He was definitely as essential part of those championship teams.  Larry Bird called him "the best teammate I ever played with".

[Chief]

"He was one of the most underrated players in the history of the game, in my opinion, and one of the greatest Celtic acquisitions of all time".
