Keep up the fantastic play but STAY hungry.

This team's window is NOW and his play will help to ensure that.

Tatum is the youngest Celtic to win the award. Bird and Pierce both won their first at 23. Antoine was 26 when he won his only POTM as a co-winner with..............

Yes, Paul Pierce. Everyone remember that?

Celtics to win POTM Awards.
Bird 7
Pierce 2
Antoine 1
Tatum 1

Or maybe Pierce won 1.5 and Toine 0.5

I definitely remember that Pierce/Walker co-POTM award.  I  had become a fan in the 90's (pretty much right after Bird/McHale/Parish left), and that was the first time the C's looked legit.  19-12 at the end of the Dec '01, tied for the 3rd best record in the league!  This was pretty exciting after not having a winning record for 8 years.

Interesting looking back now, that was first year the award was split by conference, so Bird probably could have ended up with several more.

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

That was a rough time to become a fan - the 90s were a dark time for the Celts.
