I can’t wait to hear the Game 3 crowd in Boston. 19,850 butts out of seats, letting these Celtics know they’re at home, playing for a title. It takes me back.
April 28, 2016. My first playoff game in the Garden. A Game 6 loss to the Atlanta Hawks. Featuring then-Hawk Al Horford, who went for 15 points, 4 rebounds, 3 blocks, 2 assists, and 2 steals—a +19 in the win to close out the series. Featuring newest Celtics Isaiah Thomas, who joined the 2015-16 squad at the trade deadline.
It’s the only NBA playoff game I’ve been to.
