It's being such a hard day (11.55AM GMT+1). I hope those of you living in America (not only US) have managed a way to get some sleep. I haven't
I posted this in a thread started by FL, it's the Bad News Bears from 1976. It made me smile, and I think it reflects how rivalry between fans should be:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1-zBIIvl5gYes, the Celtics lost, and we feel we lost too, but it's just a game and next time it will be better. While I think we must give credit to the Lakers (even thinking that the refs eased their way to the title), you don't have to be kind, you just have to respect the real basketball fans that by chance are rooting for that horrible purple and yellow club.
The mods are in troll hunt mode, but one of them (trolls) linked the video from Green Street that shows Tony Allen in tears (I catched it before the thread was removed - thanks mods). That made me really sad, you can imagine them living through the frustration of the calls, the turnovers, the missed shots (in and out) and injuries. It's just a game, but for them is a very intense experience, and while we as fans have to deal with real problems in life, work, college... you can't help but feeling for the guys in green.
I really hope this unit stays together. I want TA, RA, Nate, Marquis and Doc Rivers back. I hope Rasheed can stay for one more chance to the title. And I want Danny Ainge to pull a good player with the MLE and 2 or 3 great rookies who can learn from this veterans. The Celtics have a chance at a title, but most important, they have a chance to keep the old fashioned Boston Celtics style of passing the torch and stay loyal. We need UBUNTU, fresh legs, urgency to win and will to overcome this 4-point defeat.
And finally, a great great performance by some of our visitors:
