ONE OF THE GREATEST DEALS TO GO DOWN IN THE HISTORY OF SPORTS!!! NO ONE THOUGHT THAT IT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN...... BUT, PAUL, KEVIN, RAY & DOC DELIVERED A CHAMPIONSHIP TO THE CITY OF BOSTON!!
Boston would have won more titles if Garnett hadn't gotten injured. Once that happened, more pressure was put on Pierce and Allen, and they floundered some. Then, Boston shopped Ray Allen during the 2010 season, which he remembered when thinking about free agency in 2012. If all of that doesn't happen, Boston wins 2009, 2010, and maybe even 2011 as well as 2008. Been a Heat fan since 2004, but the 2007-08 Boston Celtics are my favorite team to watch, and probably my favorite team besides the '95-'96 Bulls.
and if perk didnt have that knee injury in game 6! :( and then if aimge never traded him the year after i think? to get jeff green at the deadline. that trade ripped our chemistry apart
Sucks that they didn't do this earlier, they could've had a few championships now. They still have a shot at one this year, but they're at a disadvantage because of age,
No one got pwned matlock. I wrote that before the season started. And i was wrong. They did add P.J. Brown and Sam Cassell during the season which made the Celtics bench even stronger. And before the season, the Bulls were looking good. They just had a bad year. So did the Heat. But there is always next year.
some of you may disagree with me but i say they trade either ray allen or paul pierce. i mean really do need 3 superstars on one team? what they really need is some one to fill point guard spot and a center to help KG with the boards and with by trading one of them they can a decent point guard and center, plus they can get a number one draft pick back.
this is the difference between the Celtics big 3 and the Heat big 3. The celtics just said they would try their best to win a championship before doing anything. The heat had a huge welcome party in which Bosh acted like a douche while LeBron and Wade talked shit and trash before the season started.
Notice nobody in the media calling this a super team. The guys were in their prime. How the narratives changed when LeBron takes control of his own career. Not even 02/03 lakers were pushed in the media as a super team.
They beat the Spurs both times they played this year and won 2 out of 3 against Detroit. What the Patriots did this year has no bearing on what the C's do.
the 07-08 celtics are going to be the one of the greatest teams in nba history, but whats going to happen in 5 years when ray allen and kevin garnett retire and paul pierce gets old
NBA fixed this team and Lakers (as usual) in order to get finals ratings back up since previous year (2007 Cavaliers vs Spurs) had the worse rating of all finals history. So this is how NBA counters it. Later during the season Lakers luckily gets Gasol for Kwame Brown & and first pick.
MINN got the better side of this trade, KG is 12yrs in the nba, allen is 11, pierce is 9, those 3 cant share the ball and they are getting old, once all 3 of them are done within a few yrs, boston's roster would be gone. also boston got no bench for MINN, they got a bunch of young and talented players that will be on their team for yrs to come, ill take al's 16ppg, green's 11ppg, and gomes talent over 1 big KG anyday of the week
I can see why you would be worried grnkronic, but the Bulls have way better depth than the Celts. Even though KG is with the Celts now, i still think the Bulls are alot better. But at least Danny Ainge is doing something. Danny Ferry needs to take notes and give Lebron some help.
wat has LA lakers done 2 make the BOS-LA rivalry back to where it used to be? Boston would wipe the floor wit LA unless they get sum very good players.
whoever thinks the celtics are going to win a ring this coming season is dreaming first of all they dont have a true point guard or a center unless K.G is going to play the center and they dont have a bench or depth so thats why there not going to win a ring automatically maybe a couple years from now but not now.
Raptors will still win the atlantic in 07/08. Boston traded all of there young players and now they have no one to come off the bench who can score. jefferson, green, telfair, all of them are gone now.
ya define traitor? who? a guy who has givin his heart to his team for 12 years and has got no help in return,, wants to win? maybe im a little bias,,, hehe go CELTICS
lol I guess you are from the boston area boston will not win the east next year I dont believe al these people in the media or on you tube think that the celtics will win the east.
Its a great team. Doc rivers is a bad coach. Anyone with 3 of the 10 greatest players in the league would have an amazing record. If Phil Jackson was coaching them, they'd beat his bull's old record/
lol are u dreaming I guess you are from the boston area the celtics will not be on top next year the top 5 teams in the east will be detroit miami washington chicago and then maybe the celtics but they wont be on top.
no perkins wasn't playing well at all the game. they needed someone who could play the position and put up points. rasheed should of come into the game long before perkins went out.
Haha this franchise is a joke claiming to be the best franchise in the NBA despite the fact that they went over 25 years without a ring, giving them one ring in modern-day NBA! Good job, celtics!
ONE OF THE GREATEST DEALS TO GO DOWN IN THE HISTORY OF SPORTS!!!
NO ONE THOUGHT THAT IT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN......
BUT, PAUL, KEVIN, RAY & DOC DELIVERED A CHAMPIONSHIP TO THE CITY OF BOSTON!!
One of my favorite memories!!!
sad that they only brought 1 championship but still they will be remember as CHAMPIONS
One of the greatest moments in Boston sports history
Bow down to title town, MA USA baby!
Finally, something to really cheer about!
Boston would have won more titles if Garnett hadn't gotten injured. Once that happened, more pressure was put on Pierce and Allen, and they floundered some.

They were way better than a 1 championship team for sure.
Damn, nothing says Nostalgic more than this video here!
I would never forget this day.
my jaw dropped when i saw this on espn
Damn this is beautiful

The rebirth of the greatest basketball franchise in the history of the NBA.
all i gotta say is, STAY HEALTHY, then everything'll be gooooood
I'm Am the biggest Kg Fan and i'm so happy he left the timberwolves hopefully he is happy in boston Go Celtics!!!!
Kevin Garnett MVP for the Boston Celtics 07-08
my three favorite players..can't wait for the season to start just to how is the chemistry... can't wait to see the Celtics against the Suns...
GLAD YOU CAME TO BOSTON- I WOULDN'T HAVE SEEN YOU
Well Ainge did it, he made the Celtics a team to deal with...good for him and now it's up to Doc.
cant believe the era of the big 3 is almost over :'(!
Boston - Sports Capital of the WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's the name of the characther he plays in the movie: "He Got Game"
CAN'T FORGET RONDO-- HE'S PART OF THE BIG 4 NOT 3, LET'S NOT FORGET THAT!!!!!
facts
Sucks that they didn't do this earlier, they could've had a few championships now. They still have a shot at one this year, but they're at a disadvantage because of age,
you understand we're going to be able to watch KG, Pierce and Ray Allen? How freakin' lucky are we?!?!
No one got pwned matlock. I wrote that before the season started. And i was wrong. They did add P.J. Brown and Sam Cassell during the season which made the Celtics bench even stronger. And before the season, the Bulls were looking good. They just had a bad year. So did the Heat. But there is always next year.
Garnett should have won finals mvp over paul pierce.
Wish they won a few more .
24-3 now baby...Let's go C's
We call Ray Allen: Jesus Shuttlesworth.
And BETTER THAN EVER! Celtic Pride.....GREEN 17....TRUTH and BIG TICKET AND RAY ALLEN (doesn't have a nickname :p), THE NEW BIG 3!
holy MOLEY! watch out for the celtics in the 07-08 season!!
whoa, old comment haha
asdfasd whoa old comment
some of you may disagree with me but i say they trade either ray allen or paul pierce. i mean really do need 3 superstars on one team? what they really need is some one to fill point guard spot and a center to help KG with the boards and with by trading one of them they can a decent point guard and center, plus they can get a number one draft pick back.

And they ended up achieving more too so😅✌🏽😴
First super team that was formed in this era
boston is gonna be good, even though im a detroit fan, but wow they traded FIVE PLAYERS AND A DRAFT PICK for ONE GUY!
i'm a diehard celts fan and i'm all for this trade...but does anyone else think we gave up a little too much?
Notice nobody in the media calling this a super team. The guys were in their prime. How the narratives changed when LeBron takes control of his own career. Not even 02/03 lakers were pushed in the media as a super team.
superteam wasn't a thing back then, big three is the term they use but yes this is a superteam, even the duncan led-spurs is a superteam
@@fretjo8387spurs is a organichslly super team all players were draft by spurs different than Boston and Miami
KG is worth alot of personnel, 7 for 1. The Lakers only got Odom, Butler, and Grant for Shaq.
They beat the Spurs both times they played this year and won 2 out of 3 against Detroit. What the Patriots did this year has no bearing on what the C's do.
danny hair gotta really gray really fast
Me when I get a frat bid lol
excuse me GOODNIGHTCANADA? did u just say KG is a ball hog?i wonder if u have seen any of his game
the 07-08 celtics are going to be the one of the greatest teams in nba history, but whats going to happen in 5 years when ray allen and kevin garnett retire and paul pierce gets old
max a lol alot
NBA fixed this team and Lakers (as usual) in order to get finals ratings back up since previous year (2007 Cavaliers vs Spurs) had the worse rating of all finals history. So this is how NBA counters it. Later during the season Lakers luckily gets Gasol for Kwame Brown & and first pick.
So how many more years is this dynasty going to be?
MINN got the better side of this trade, KG is 12yrs in the nba, allen is 11, pierce is 9, those 3 cant share the ball and they are getting old, once all 3 of them are done within a few yrs, boston's roster would be gone. also boston got no bench
for MINN, they got a bunch of young and talented players that will be on their team for yrs to come,
ill take al's 16ppg, green's 11ppg, and gomes talent over 1 big KG anyday of the week
S class freezing cold take 🥶
Welcome to Boston Randy Moss, Dice-K, KG, and soon to be AROD!
:p HAAAAAAA! Cold.
I can see why you would be worried grnkronic, but the Bulls have way better depth than the Celts. Even though KG is with the Celts now, i still think the Bulls are alot better. But at least Danny Ainge is doing something. Danny Ferry needs to take notes and give Lebron some help.
the top 5 teams in the east next year will be miami detroit the wizards and then the bulls and then maybe the celtics.
wat has LA lakers done 2 make the BOS-LA rivalry back to where it used to be? Boston would wipe the floor wit LA unless they get sum very good players.
Ya, how is tht working out 4 ya?
whoever thinks the celtics are going to win a ring this coming season is dreaming first of all they dont have a true point guard or a center unless K.G is going to play the center and they dont have a bench or depth so thats why there not going to win a ring automatically maybe a couple years from now but not now.
johnied8509 lol
lakers are dunn celtics are the new champions well done kg, pp, and ra.
Damn 29-3.
CELTICS 2011 CHAMPS!!!
ESPN Power Rankings...Celtics=#2
man i am fucking happy thatKG got traded to the caltics cause i have a Paul pierce jersey and i was going to get rid of it but now no
when you are a power forward or center you kind have to be ball hog so can get closer to the basket and get easier points
Raptors will still win the atlantic in 07/08. Boston traded all of there young players and now they have no one to come off the bench who can score. jefferson, green, telfair, all of them are gone now.
@heyma09 totally going to be true!!!
next up Dwight Howard!
so was larry...just because your white doesn't mean you can't play. Nash can play
The Hawks? Seriously, THE HAWKS???
eat your words
ya define traitor? who? a guy who has givin his heart to his team for 12 years and has got no help in return,, wants to win? maybe im a little bias,,, hehe go CELTICS
The Raptors? Uh...no.
Lucky Boston, Lakers were too slow.
#43,000 view. Beat LA, Beat LA, Beat LA...
Who is selling their soul to the devil and how is it selling their soul to the devil?
Laker & Celtics... you have no depth celtics, while you guys beat Lakers in starting 5...
Trust me
Celtics vs Lakers rivalry reborn
solenstyle damn bro good call
lol I guess you are from the boston area boston will not win the east next year I dont believe al these people in the media or on you tube think that the celtics will win the east.

lol are u dreaming I guess you are from the boston area the celtics will not be on top next year the top 5 teams in the east will be detroit miami washington chicago and then maybe the celtics but they wont be on top.

no perkins wasn't playing well at all the game. they needed someone who could play the position and put up points. rasheed should of come into the game long before perkins went out.
