These two moments might be the most important moments of the decade:

Maybe not the top but the Rozier steam and dunk to beat Indiana was amazing not just for the play but that Scal recognized the defensive setup for Indiana's inbound and basically predicted it
Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing

How about this one:




Celtics break Warriors' 54 game home win streak on April 1, 2016.

Warriors were 68-8.


Starting lineup for that game:

IT, AB, ET, Sully, Amir

And then ESPN put this up, best graphic of the decade, maybe all time:



2nd place for the decade in my TV graphics category:


After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class

I'll always remember that celebration.

Here's the video as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_uulujs-MM

edit: TP to Celtic Fan Forever for beating me to it!

This is my favorite Celtic moment.  Wasn't this also the "Good job, good effort!" kid after the Heat walked off the floor? lol

I'll do one more just because other people aren't jumping in:

1. PP34 clutch 3 vs LeBron James in Game 5 of the 2012 ECF.
2. Celtics down 3-0 against NYK and somehow forced Game 6 and nearly came back to tie the series 3-3.
3. 2017 and 2018 Playoff runs. Those were unprecedented and great.
4. Celtics winning Game 2 of the NBA Finals @ Staples Center
5. Celtics beating the Lakers in 2010 regular season @ Staples Center while LeBron loses at home to the Nuggets that same night.
6. Celtics sweeping Lakers 2016-2017.
7. Confetti game against the 76ers in 2018.
8. Celtics ending Warriors' 54-game home-winning streak during their 73-9 run.
9. Celtics making sure Kobe Bryant loses his last game against them at Staples.
10. Celtics allowing PP34 to make his last shot at the TD Garden in a Clippers uniform, same day the New England Patriots mounted an improbable comeback to win Superbowl LI.

LOL with all the CRAZINESS that was KG it would not surprise me if he DID say that...........

KG had an 80's spirit about him that I loved....if he knew that he could say something to his opponent to get them off kilter he did it.

Psychological warfare at its best.

EVERY NIGHT was a BAR FIGHT with KG.

Thankfully he has passed the torch to Marcus Smart.

There was almost never a night KG played that I wasn’t proud of our team, win or lose. Frustrated maybe, but that guy ALWAYS brought it and that was infectious.

My singular top moment off the top of my head was probably Keyon Dooling’s leap after his bucket against the Heat in the 2012 ECF.

Isaiah dropping 50 in the playoffs just a few weeks after his sister’s death is up there as well. Regardless of what people think of him, he was just as special for the Celtics as Boston was for him. A perfect match, albeit too short a matrimony.

When Shaquille O'Neal manned the middle for Boston we were like 27-11 and DOMINANT.

Too bad health concerns ravaged that team. They looked GREAT for a minute there.

We lost this game but BOY what a performance from Rajon Rondo!

That 2011-12 team was SPECIAL.
