History of the Celtics
The Celtics are the best team in NBA History winning 17 championships. Bill Russell one of the greatest of all time and the only player in history to win 11 championships was a Celtic. One fun fact is that Bill Russell actually lived in Reading during the 60's. Other Celtics champions from the past include:

#1 Celtics Fan
I am the #1 Celtics fan in the world!!! I go to Celtics Camp every year at their Training Facility located in Waltham! I know everything about the Boston Celtics and I support them through everything. But it isn't just me. Boston Fans are known as the best fans in the world and I believe that. Through the ups and the downs we stick with our athletes, with the ones who have done so much for our community. When people say you don't understand unless you're from Boston we're aren't kidding. Paul Pierce, 15 years a Celtic, was traded this year to the Brooklyn Nets. He was speechless when he heard the news, but he knew that no one could ever change the past. He made History and he will forever be a Celtic. Kevin Garnett, who was also traded with Paul, felt the same way. A quote from the interview when they were traded to Brooklyn is "People always say players can be too loyal, but I don't believe that. A city like Boston is worth it. I think we will always bleed green, as long as we're playing basketball. As long as we're living, even when they bury us six feet it's what it's gonna be." -Kevin Garnett. This team means so much to me and the city of Boston and I will always bleed green for the rest of my life just like Kevin Garnett said.
