Last night in Indiana was a huge, huge win. The best of the year according to some. That made me wonder: was it the best win this season in your opinion?

Just a week ago Doc called the win in Utah 'the best win of the year'. And there are many more to chose from. How about the double OT W against Miami? Or the triple OT W against Denver? Or the blowout W against the Lakers? Or.. Well, just pick your favorite and feel free to tell us why that game.

I chose the one against Denver. A win after three OT's, how sweet is that? After regulation I thought we were going to lose as we trailed for the better part of the first and second OT. But some huge plays from several players kept us in it and we were able to grind this one out. Celtics pride!

The fact that I was in the TD Garden that game while on a Celtics trip all the way from Holland made it even more special. A night to never forget! Although the same could be said of the blowout win against the Lakers, which I also attended  ;D

Voting is open!

I've got to go with the double overtime win vs Miami.

That was basically the heart of Pierce and KG willing us over a win vs the Heat AND the officials.

Also, that was when it was discovered that Rondo was out for the season and yet the Celtics still won the game.

That actually to me was the defining game of the season. Had the Celts lost that game, the rest of the season might have been in free fall but Pierce/KG proved they can carry this team to another playoff berth.

Great thread, TP

I think we should make one for "best" and one for "favorite"

Last night definitely! This was a win against the 2nd team in the East, on their court, a back to back, and they have the best defense! This is also a win against a top team that knows we don't have RR (Sully and Bosa), for a long time now... the Mia game, Mia didn't know RR wasn't playing until b4 the game, they hadn't had the chance to plan for a Rondoless team, Indiana has had plenty of time! Ended on a run of 11-0 last 4 minutes. Indiana went 4-20 in the 4th. KG's only two assists of the game came on two cuts (AB and G8) within the last 2 minutes of the game. JET had 2 HUGE steals at the end!

It takes me 3hrs to get to Miami and 1hr to get to Orlando... but I *SPIT* on their NBA teams! "Bless God and bless the (Celts)"-Lady GaGa (she said gays but she really meant Celts)

My personal favorite was Denver. Big shots from Terry, Green down the stretch. Me gusta.

Last night was spectacular, not the whole game, but the 4th quarter was ridiculously amazing.

If Jeff Green pans out to be the "man" after KG and Pierce retires, that play last night would be replayed over and over again. That's like passing the torch in a sense.

Miami game, it boosted up the player's confidence and has played a vital role on how the celtics have been playing as of late
