Just thought with the news of our guys Paul and Ray comeing back for another crack at it we should give a standing O to our owners. I say our as this is my team just like it's yours.

 The owners have stood in the face of a changeing NBA landscape and never flinched.They could have bought into what the so called experts said. They could have let Paul and Ray walk and went into next year without a shot at anything but pingpong balls. They could have pocketed the cash. But they showed what it means to be loyal to a team and dished out the cash for another shot at it.I know the Gastons would'nt have done this. So Thank you for buying the team, Thank your for Danny Ainge, Thank you for #17.Thank You for showing what Celtics Pride is all about makeing a comitment to a group of guys that have shown exactly what being a Celtic is all about.
HUSTLE LOYALTY RESPECT.

CELTICS OWNERS, THANK YOU.

I'm very glad that Danny and the ownership is bringing the "big three" back.  There's time for rebuilding later.  For now, let's enjoy being contenders!

Thanks Wyc, Danny, and company!

Nah, I hear you. They're a great ownership group, and we should be grateful for that. 
Yup

Thank you. You brought back the big 3, extended Rondo and it looks like you will spend the full MLE. Now all you need is to extended TA and Nate and you have done the best possible job and owner can.

Great topic.  Thanks owners!

Regardless of what people think of trying again with this core versus rebuilding, it is nice to have ownership that lets the GM make basketball decisions based on basketball first and money second.  We could have an owner like Sarver in Phoenix who, in the interest in saving a few million here and there, gave up Deng, Rondo and many others.

not only did they bring them back, but brought them back for pretty reasonable contracts so they hopefully can add more integral pieces.

definitely like what they are doing on Causeway Street these days...even with super team being created in MIA.

Thank you owners for not sucking like most owners. We are insanely lucky to have the 3 top flight ownership groups heading Boston sprts teams. Even Jacobs is coming around these days for the Bruins and putting smart hockey people in charge of his team.

Thanks for spending your money owners.

The real thanks goes to Danny Ainge, who did what other GM's couldn't do for awhile here.  Building through the draft, and trading prospects/'chips' for Vets, etc.  Didn't have many high picks to get it right , yet still built a quality team year in and year out.

Do the right thing, Hang up #44

CELTICS OWNERS, THANK YOU.


I would not quite thank the owners, as it is in their enlightened self-interest, financially, to ensure that our Celtics remain a strong contender.  Still, we are luckier than most in the NBA.  At least, our owners are staunch fans of the Boston Celtics.
