Celtics Championship Banner Ceremony Video and Pics
Here's a nice video of the events that took place last night at the Garden. That was the moment we've all been waiting for over the last 4 months and really, the past 22 years. The banner raising ceremony, along with the passing out of the championship rings, was a special moment last night for any true Celtics fan. I remember sitting with my Dad watching all of these banner raising moments in the 80's and it was great to be able to finally do it again. It's been too long.
As you will see, Pierce got very emotional and let a few tears fly. I have to admit, it got a little dusty up in Dj RyB's shack as well. I'm glad Pierce let out his emotions though because he's been through a lot of ups and downs throughout his career in Boston. He will readily admit that he was on his way out of town before the Allen and Garnett trades actually happened. He was fed up and almost had enough with this team but his loyalty and patience told him to stick around and it finally paid off in the end. He will always be the true leader of this Celtics team until he retires. He showed it again last night when he took over the game when no one else was scoring and he pushed them towards another meaningful win. Keep doing your thing, Pierce!
