That's my boy.

Walton has two bloodlines, and I'm glad he still honors the one that bleeds green.

Both Walton and Carlisle talked about the Garden crowd in the finals and how people don't understand how crazy that place will be.

I'll admit it.. I gave a little fist pump watching Walton. He also said he will always consider himself a Celtic.

Yeah, Baby.

That's what I'm talkin' about!

Picking against his own son.  That's cold, Bill.  Cold.

Very smart decision on his part. This avoids the nepatism angle, and objectivity is huge in his profession. Also, it takes pressure off Luke (being the underdog).  Also, he's considered a Celtic so he doesn't p--- off thousands of fans like BS (who is now trying sooo hard to kiss back up to us...lol)

Sorry ... couldn't stand Bill Walton when he was a Celtic, and I dislike him even more now. He's one of the most arrogant, condescending know-it-alls in the business ... in fact, more so than Sir Charles, (and that's going some), and I could care less what his opinion is ... on anything!

If the Lakers win his son is a champion. 

If the Celtics win he's right.

Win-Win.
We're the ones we've been waiting for.

easy now.

i like bill, always have. and it's nice to see the celtics get some love, even if it is from former players only.
