Danny Ainge took over and blew up everything. He fired the coach who took the franchise to the 2002 eastern conference finals and embarked on a series of individually semi-defensible moves that had no correlation to one another.
The 2006 Boston Celtics season was the 60th season of the Boston Celtics in the NBA and the 56th and final season of Arnold ‘Red’ Auerbach’s official involvement with the team.
It’s the beginning of the 2005 NBA season, and Celtics fans are uncertain and frustrated about the direction the team is going, a feeling Celtics fans had grown accustomed to.
It’s hard to believe this now, but Danny Ainge was at one time one of the most hated general managers in the league when he traded away fan favourite Antoine Walker to the Dallas Mavericks.
It’s the off-season before the 2003 NBA season, the Celtics had just made the playoffs for the first time in seven years and were only two games off reaching the Finals.
Fans were excited to embark on the first season with coach Jim O’Brien from start to finish.
Philadelphia 76ers’ Joel Embiid sprained his shoulder last week against Cleveland, only days after Ben Simmons re-aggravated his back injury.
It’s September 25, 2000, a timestamp of great underestimation from the entire league of what a young Paul Pierce was capable of becoming.
“Make the Celtics great again” was a mantra that occupied every Celtics fan’s thoughts of desperate demand for a revival.
Thanks, that really means a lot. I was thinking about doing a article on this Celtic team for every year of the 2000’s. I would also be uploading just as many articles about the news of today’s NBA.
