They just released the full trailer for the Simmons-produced Celtics City documentary.

This looks like it?s going to be amazing!

;D My first thought as well (not your wife, but y'know).

Just have to figure out how to get it over here.

We're pretty good about watching things with one another. I've sat through plenty of episodes of Selling Sunset so she can sit through this.

I can hopefully get her to watch.  I'll definitely do something great for Valentines Day this year.  I usually screw it up, but I'm starting a few weeks early this year!

Just finished watching the the first episode of Bill Simmons' HBO-Max "Celtics City".

Really fascinating stuff focused on the early years of the franchise and the arrival of Bill Russell and the beginning of the Dynasty.
Some insight into the team and Russell's matchup with Wilt and the start of the Lakers rivalry.
Showed some glimpses of the current team and an interesting shot of Mazzulla doing a chalk-talk session.
Spent too much time (over half of the hour) on racial issues. Enough already, we get it.
If it is only a two-part series, I want more about the basketball, the team, the important games and series and the players.

Russell - Cowens - Bird - Garnett

The Four Celtic Lieutenants:
Cousy - Havlicek - McHale - Pierce
