I'm not a Celtics fan but the team they had back then was really great, they deserved this title and I'm real glad for them, KG , Rondo and Allen especially great players!!
These scenes of Boston pounding on the lakers in 2008 and winning the championship will always stay in my memory. Those three guys namely Garnett, Pierce, Allen are the realest big 3 ever in the Nba.
Well I like D-Wade, but I can't STAND Lebron James and now that he's back in Cleveland, Miami Heat is not in the news much as they use to, but Cleveland is b/c FREAKIN' ESPN treats Lebron James like he's the Golden Child Let's Face It, he may have 2 championship rings mainly due to the STUPID Lockout which was the reason nobody cared for the NBA and the Spurs should've won in 2013 and went back to back as well I HOPE that either the Bulls or somebody STOPS Lebron from winning in Cleveland b/c I am SICK of the Golden Boy getting all the credit in the world He is NOT a CLUTCH PLAYER
cart88 You mean Lebron James bulldozing through every team. The fact that without Miami he can still make it to the finals is just bullshit. I'm jealous of his talent but holy shit there were other good teams in his conference like Bulls, Atlanta, and Celtics and yet he still pulled through. I think it just goes to show that anyone in his team can play better when he's on the court.
It's actually really sad seeing the franchise splitting apart. Ray Allen to Heat, Pierce & Garnett to Nets, Big Baby to the Clippers, Tony Allen on Grizzlies etc.
It's not shown in this video but if you watch the trophy presentation KG grabs the trophy and just yells I got to hold it over and over again. It just shows how much he loves the game of basketball!
yet if atlanta won game 7 in the first round we would all call them failures!.....this is sports...1 game changes everything...boston sucked in the first round....got lucky that the hawks were nervous playing in boston a game 7...if game 7 was in atlanta atlanta no doubt knocks them out...they matched up well with the celtics...66 wins lose in the first round damn...just like the 67 win mavs the year before lost...sports is funny the 2006 mavs beat the defending champs in 7 in ot in san antonio beat the 2 time mvp nash with best team all year the suns in 6... go up 2-0 in the finals lose 4 straight win 67 games in 2007 lose in the first round yet in 2011 with all the hype about lakers heat the mavs win as underdogs lol...sports is funny...
My Celtics, I hate it's been 9 yrs since this championship, Rondo, KG, The Truth, Ray Allen, big baby Davis, Eddie house, Tony Allen, Scalabrine etc this was the squad #Celtics4Life
If KG didn't get hurt in 2009 we would have went way further then the second round and win it all I mean we started 27-3 2010 if perk never got hurt in game 6 that's another we could of had a 3 peat stupid injuries but who knows maybe we will see another lakers celtics season where they both dominate
+Lenny Felix I agree Spurs would have been way more challenging then the lakers but if the lakers beat them and the Celtics beat the lakers who knows what would happen
yep celtics were 39-4 without posey or kg...they were the perfect team until kg got hurt...they should have kept posey they might have gone 43-0....they got pretty far without kg...i mean with him no doubt they repeat but laker fans dont want to hear that ...but they took orlando to 7 without kg lol or posey...huge losses
the only time when LeBron congraulated the winners was the semifinals in 2010 all the other losses he was the first to go to the locker room when the final buzzer went off
Amazing! Doc Rivers shares the story of how he banded together the Boston Celtics to overcome the odds and win the 2008 NBA Finals on #AOLInspired goo.gl/L39WhN
8 years ago today 😭🍀 Time flies past us so quickly....
Ikr
best finals celebration ever.... destroys the crappy celebration of 2011 mavs.
Because they were playing at Miami duh
I'm not a Celtics fan but the team they had back then was really great, they deserved this title and I'm real glad for them, KG , Rondo and Allen especially great players!!
I agree
Miss the these celtics

I LOVE CELTICS NATION!!!!!!!!!

Ivan Barbarian within 3 years?
These scenes of Boston pounding on the lakers in 2008 and winning the championship will always stay in my memory. Those three guys namely Garnett, Pierce, Allen are the realest big 3 ever in the Nba.
no disrespect to any other big three but this one is absolute GOLD
Here's hoping for another Laker and Celtic finals, they never get boring. Tired of Miami just bulldozing through everyone.
Well I like D-Wade, but I can't STAND Lebron James and now that he's back in Cleveland, Miami Heat is not in the news much as they use to, but Cleveland is b/c FREAKIN' ESPN treats Lebron James like he's the Golden Child
Let's Face It, he may have 2 championship rings mainly due to the STUPID Lockout which was the reason nobody cared for the NBA and the Spurs should've won in 2013 and went back to back as well
I HOPE that either the Bulls or somebody STOPS Lebron from winning in Cleveland b/c I am SICK of the Golden Boy getting all the credit in the world
He is NOT a CLUTCH PLAYER

5:33 Russell is thinking, 'Yeah...one title....that's cute.'
You right but some guys play their whole career and get nothing at least they got one
I was 8 years old when this happened and I remember watching the whole game
It's actually really sad seeing the franchise splitting apart. Ray Allen to Heat, Pierce & Garnett to Nets, Big Baby to the Clippers, Tony Allen on Grizzlies etc.
*Pierce on Wizards
blastoisemetapod Yep I've heard... Didn't see that one coming
They're stacking draft picks, something good will come out soon.
1 more win to go and we are the NBA 2024 champs!!!!
Such a pure team
idk why,,,, i really get to tears when garnett starts crying... he deserved this SO MUCH, paul pierce just as much... the captain, and the truth
i want to see this one more time before i die
Woah young Austin Rivers 6:13
Thank you, KG!
Garnett at 0:40 " come on muh f***in team!" Haha
My favorite player, I miss these Celtics
+Ken Cook me too
he said "come on mother fucking 2:08!"
1 of my favorite team..
KG can't even understand him sometimes. He's just pure raw emotion in human form, thats why I love him why he's one of my favorites.
It's not shown in this video but if you watch the trophy presentation KG grabs the trophy and just yells I got to hold it over and over again. It just shows how much he loves the game of basketball!

i miss all these players but at least we still have good ones
5:30 Adam Silver before he was commissioner
wow look at Austin rivers
Adam Silver sighting at 5:37
131 points in a finals game . That's ridiculous.
I'LL never forget that night I BLEED GREEN!
Thanks for the upload!!! ur the best
best finals I seen
Sweetest celebration ever
I'm gonna miss KG....he retired today
They say, history repeats itself.
My Celtics, I hate it's been 9 yrs since this championship, Rondo, KG, The Truth, Ray Allen, big baby Davis, Eddie house, Tony Allen, Scalabrine etc this was the squad #Celtics4Life
6:03 now austin plays for doc lol
Ever since 2000 lakers have been to the final 7 of 15 times and won 5 go lakers yea baby!!!
Why r u going on a Celtics video and saying this idiot
+William Brown Now they're complete ass utter doo doo
+Jash Rock 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Where did the ball that Glenn Davis through up in the air at 7:31 land? Lol
8:34 Sasha tries say congrats to Pierce like stars do but Pierce didn't give a fuck lol
6:15 Austin rivers young as hell
LOL at (I think) Garnett at 0:40 "Come on mother fuckin 2:08"
If KG didn't get hurt in 2009 we would have went way further then the second round and win it all I mean we started 27-3 2010 if perk never got hurt in game 6 that's another we could of had a 3 peat stupid injuries but who knows maybe we will see another lakers celtics season where they both dominate
+Lenny Felix I agree Spurs would have been way more challenging then the lakers but if the lakers beat them and the Celtics beat the lakers who knows what would happen
+Lenny Felix and you have to remember the lakers didn't have Bynum if they had Bynum the series would have went to 7 most likely
Lakers beat the celtics with Kevin Garnett in both meetings in the 2008-2009 season.
yep celtics were 39-4 without posey or kg...they were the perfect team until kg got hurt...they should have kept posey they might have gone 43-0....they got pretty far without kg...i mean with him no doubt they repeat but laker fans dont want to hear that ...but they took orlando to 7 without kg lol or posey...huge losses
razkable Celtics were not going to beat the Lakers even with KG and Posey, cause the Lakers went 2-0 against them in 2009 season.
Most of the players here can play defence such a gud team
5:43 And soon a new banner will be raised to the *raptors*???
Raftors lol
Lol Adam silver at 5:34 behind russel
I thought that I was the only one that noticed that lol illuminati
Will I ever see a Celtics team like this again!!?? :(
im a celtics fan and i sure do hope so :( gotta stick with them in the tough times but i sure do hope we get a team like this again some day
is that austine rivers?
it's tom thibodeau defense the guy is a genius look at the bulls now
17!
I think so yeah! :)
Does he give a shout out to "Peanut" though?
theres KG, ray allen, pierce, rondo and then there is scalbrine
Garnett cussin lmao
the only time when LeBron congraulated the winners was the semifinals in 2010 all the other losses he was the first to go to the locker room when the final buzzer went off
if reggie miller came back that year, it should be a championship and perhaps a six man of the year
was that austin rivers ?
They don’t do that Gatorade thing to the Coaches anymore.
I want the Clippers to win the Championship now!!
Actually he didn't congratulated once which was against the magic in the 09 ECF.
