One of the greatest comebacks in NBA Finals history took place in game 4 of the 2008 Finals as the Celtics were down by 24 and still won in the end.
Ray Allen played all 48 minutes in this game. Running off of screens and still driving to the basket at game's end. Dude's conditioning was unreal
I still believe he was the M.V.P
Ray Allen always kept himself in shape for games like this.
Epic shape💯💪🏾💪🏾🔥
Posey was the x factor
Tremendous shape.. Ray is top 3 all time conditioned with bron.. who else never gasses out during games?
i forgot how big Posey was for us. Every time the Lakers were gonna pull away...bang
I completely forgot who Posey was! xD.
AFunkyDiabetic I`ve basically forgotten this entire finals, I remember that I watched it all but none of the footage lives in my memories. I was so young lol
good thing Radmanovic and Odom doesn't defend him well.
James Posey was straight cash!
AFunkyDiabetic love your vids just remembering this and saw you
James Posey was a badass that season.
So underrated. The Celtics' "death lineup" with him at the 4 was so good
The funny thing is he had a ring already by this time with the Heat Wade and Shaq. Agree with the above their death line up.
Eddie House too
And eddie house
Marcus Smart should learn from James Posey! Smart is a liability in Boston. He is overrated!
8 years later and only a handful of these guys still in the league. Times flies
+J Dawg kobe gone....i mean damn..fisher is gone...that guy was in the nba it felt like forever
I get sad because they were my childhood and with them retiring, it reminded me that I'm getting old as hell.
timeflies indeed
Now Garnett is gone.
gearmast3r Same with Pierce. Retiring this season. 😟
Quick fact: The 2008 Celtics played the MOST total games in a season in NBA History ... 82 regular season and 26 postseason games.
Who cares they still won it all
Didnt the 2010 celtics play more?
@@austin78993 No, they only played 24 games in the postseason. (4-1 vs MIA, 4-2 vs CLE, 4-2 vs ORL, 3-4 vs LAL)
@@buto1118 Sounds like someone who knows nothing about playing.
@@jasoncamp483 Seriously does that matter? As a player should I care about how many games I played during that playoffs? The goal is to win a championship
Ray Allen playing the entire game and then just driving by Vujacic and Gasol for the easy layup with 16 seconds left to put a dagger into the Lakers heart. Straight up gangster.
Ben Severson Vujacic.. is he really that bad on defense? I cant remember.
I was just wondering, why didn't Kobe guard Ray Allen in that possession
because kobe have to guard pierce
Alexis Cando there was nobody to guard pierce if he did
@@alexiscando5709 Kobe didn't play defense that late in his career.
im still pissed that celtics lost to the lakers in 2010
nono momo i'm more of a celtics fan
they had that series won in 2010...
***** they lost in 7 games in the end, they shoulda won
***** i know, right?
kevin mao me too but well get back soon and get number 18
This team just clicked amazingly. From the "Big 3" of Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett, 3 vets hungry for their first ring. To that bench of Posey, House, Powe and P.J Brown. To a young injury free Rajon Rondo and Kendrick Perkins. To a talented coaching staff in not only Doc, but Thibs, a huge factor in their defensive greatness as well. I can't help but think if only... If only KG didn't get injured in 2009. If only Perk was in Game 7 of 2010. If only Perk wasn't traded away in 2011 for Jeff Green...If only the team wasn't so injured that year If only Danny Ainge kept the core 5 of Rondo, Ray, Paul, KG and Perk together for just one more year... Sigh...
You're counter what ifs are also true. Bottom line though, they were robbed of ring two by the 4th qtr officiating Gm7 2010. I don't really think that is arguable and I'm a NYer.
I agree idk why ainge didn't learn from the spurs model and keep the band together as long as possible and make moves with the accessories players
Zarias You're getting your source from Bleacher Report?!! LOL!
rockabillylaker Actually no. LOL! LMAO! Internet acronyms instead of articulative expression! Ignore the Bleacher Report. Please. And look at the game. Look at the FTs. Look at the shots in the paint. Just look at the game unbiasedly. There are scores of media outlets that call this a terribly officiated game and especially 4 qtr. But who cares what they say? Just watch with your own eyes. If you don't agree then don't. You just probably have never played organized ball. Oh yeah and you're from the valley.
So I guess I'm not allowed to give any insight on basketball if I've never played organized ball? Ok..........hahahaha! Oh, sorry, I mean LOL!
Bryant (RIP), Gasol, Pierce, Allen. Damn I can't believe how fast time flies. I miss this era of basketball. You just don't get that same excitement like you used to.
kg?..rondo?..odom?..
This finals was the first basketball i ever watched on tv, im 18 now about to head to college, time flies
There's a lot of players better now
Amen brother Celtics were amazing
@@pierregasly3547 no there aren’t
Boston vs. Lakers game 4 Still watching 💪💪💪 August 4, 2o23
Ray Allen clearly should of won Finals MVP during this series. Pierce only got it because he was the face of that team. Ray Allen was the most consistent out of the Big 3, in all six of those games
Agreed.
Lionel Thompson Agreed and Ray was also robbed of the All Star game MVP in 2008.
Lionel Thompson
Tape and stats prove it shoulda been allen mvp
KG was none of lakers big man could stop him
As a Laker fan, I still don't know how we lost this finals, I mean we looked good. We swept the Iverson-Melo Denver team and beat the defending champ Spurs 4 games to 1. But this Celtic team just destroyed us.
aiyachristian I mean having a big 3 will do that to you
That Celtics team was just soo hungry and well coached. I don't think anyone could have stopped them from getting the chip that year
Plus a few missed calls here and there and bam Celtics win lmao fluke chip
@@merkmangonzalez and some choking. No fluke, 2009 injuries and 2010 arguably refs.
@@merkmangonzalez la not having bynum or a healthy ariza did not help them in games 1 and 2 thats for sure or game 4...
I remember this game, it still pisses me off till this day.
SnewJ MAD ?
The Kyrie Irving he clearly said it pisses him off.
The Kyrie Irving y’all lost in 2010
Jayden Knowles to the refs...
SnewJ Goated
What great finals that was. As a long time Celtics fan, I finally got to witness us winning a championship. After struggling in 90s and the early 2000s. I was so happy for Pierce, KG, and Ray to finally won a ring. We have lots depth pieces too. My guys Eddie House and James Posey were killers in that series. Powe had that great game 2. Plus the leadership of Cassell, Tony Allen and PJ Brown.
By far, the 2008 Celtics are my favourite team of all time.
All that illegal "floating" zone defense and illegal screens
@@jdayala-wright8875 Zone defense was allowed in the NBA starting around 2002. They put it in as an effort to counter how totally SOFT defense had gotten because of the various anti-defense rules that went in during the 1990s (like the Flagrant Foul rule growing TEETH after the 1990 Finals, which WAS needed, and the hand check rule changes that mostly were NOT).
Celtics was my team i use to be a huge KG fan when he was with T Wolves i remember when Kobe shitted on them when they where a 1 seed i was so happy to c KG win against Kobe in 2008 finals
The 09 team was better. So unfortunate Garnett got injured.
2008. Wow!! Gas prices were over $4.00 a gallon, the country was on the verge of a recession, the housing market was soon going to collapse. At least the Celtics and the Lakers gave us something to cheer about before the storm.
All that shit happened in September/October, several months after the Celtics title
forman208 you can thank Obama for all that
@@chrishandsome4267 Umm No! This was because of George W Bush. Obama wasn't president till he got inaugurated in early 09
Ha! I thought you were talking about Corona 2020: $4.00 / gallon, recession, housing too expensive for most.
Frankincensed Gas is $1.64 where I’m at
Ray Allen drove to the basket so much in this season
this Boston team is easily my favorite basketball team of all time. they were just so much fun to watch and their lineup was so star studded, absolutely amazing
Back when Defense was allowed to be important
LOVED this team. But my favorite was 85-86. That team lost only once at home regular and post, had the record (maybe still have?) for team assists and Bird was MVP.
@@thomasleary2814 The 86 Celtics played the game as it was meant to be played. I would take them in a beat of 7 against anyone. Walton staying healthy that season and playing in 81 games was key.
@@richardwinckel383 pretty sure the 2017-2018 Warriors would smoke them.
@@taygoated313 Just depends on whose rules were in play - 86 C's couldnt beat them with 2017 rules, but I think the reverse is just as true; Boston's front court would brutalize the Warriors, who dont have anything close to an answer for Parish or McHale. Bird would chew Durant up. And while Curry is pretty undeniable, I dont think Curry/Thompson is much better than Johnson/Ainge, if at all. C's could pound it, and they could run, and I dont think the Warriors could play sufficient defense for their perimeter offense to make up the difference.
House and Posey are underrated players ..
i bet $25 on this game with about 6 min left in the 3rd quarter when the celtics were down by around 20 just had a feeling my celtics would pull off something ridiculous. ended up making $525
good job
강형곤 why not 1000 if sure
Bullshit!
Can't believe this happened 5 years ago. Time really flies. Thank you for this amazing clip.
Thanks.
+SMrandomnumber yeah man dang that's what I was thinking. I counted I was like what the. how
Now 8 years ago, already
+Joseph Charette I watched it this year too lol
+Wilhelm Stigenlund the only finals where phil jackson had no idea how to stop one player who wasnt a star having big games consistently and late ...especially from 3........aka james posey ...he threw in dagger after dagger ...you have to give up something and he made the lakers pay time and time again....phil was shocked and clueless...clearly like usual the gameplan was dont let allen pierce garnett beat you....and phil didnt expect posey to be that clutch ...to bad he missed the 06 finals where posey proved he could hit daggers as a 6th man
Man, I remember watching this game. My expectations were that the Celtics would win in 6 and that they would win the 1st 2 at home. Lose Game 3. Win Game 4. Lose Game 5, and finally win game 6. I was praying that they would come back and win this game and they did. Great night.
DRAKEEEE
Ray... "I wanna play one on one with Vujacic, its time to dance...." ball game!
Man, Posey was a such a goon back then...
Damn straight.
come back here after 2022 BOS Gm1 epic 4th qtr comeback
The celtics should have never let Posey and Powe go...they would have won another title
The3Brothers Ainge should have kept Nate Robinson too, he was a great spark off the bench.
They let Posey go because he wanted the big contract and the Celtics couldn't afford to give him one. They let Powe go because he destroyed one of his knees and would never be the same again.
***** Like someone said, Posey wanted a bigger contract. He was good but he was not worth that much. Also, Posey wanted to go to a younger team. And besides, Posey sucked after he got that contract. He got fatter and lazier. Ainge actually made the right decision ehre. And Powe's knees are as fragile as Derrick Rose's. What has Powe done since he left the Celtics? And how many games has he played since he left? Hell, he's only 30 years old right now and he has been out of the league since 2012. They were good players but they wouldn't have made a difference at all.
PersianSelection Nahh, Robinson actually played like shit the following year and was tough to coach cause of his silliness. I'm glad they traded him
Actually Nate has dream to play for at least 15 teams in the NBA before he retires, so he moves a lot.
Even the Celtics bench were full of big name veterans, that entire team was stacked head to toe.
Everyone on this court is pretty much retired.. besides rondo and gasol.. crazy how much changes in 10 years.
Chris Beach and Doc is still coaching
Gasol is retired now too. See him in the Hall in a couple years.
Ands it’s even crazier to think one of them passed away recently ..

@@trevorhigh9471 bruh u can tell my comment said “3 years ago” 🤣
As a die hard Lakers millennial fan, this was the hardest most heartbreaking game to ever watch. It took me 15 years to watch the highlights of this game, I now have to share my thoughts. After Kobe’s death, getting older, and appreciating the legends like Pau, KG, Pierce and Odom I can now put my sports feelings aside and just appreciate the grit and toughness the Celtics brought during this game. Posey was the prototype 3&D guy and really spurred back the Celtics. This was also the first game I’ve ever seen where Phil had no answer. Just a masterclass defensive performance by the Cs. Of course it doesn’t hurt that I watched game 7 2010 highlights right before this.😂 I loved this era of basketball, it was the perfect mix of the slow pace era and the run and gun positionless basketball now. Thank god we got them back in 2010, that makes it hurt just a little less!!!
As a C's fan all my life and having been born around the turn of the century, the Celtics-Lakers rivalry was an object of legend to me as a little kid. My dad really imparted the history in me, being from the Bird-Magic era. I remember jumping up and down when we won in 2008 and being devastated when we lost in 2010. It's honestly a shame that we haven't seen a Finals against each other since, despite both having been consistent title contenders in recent years. Of all the teams I have watched since '08, this is (in my opinion) by far the best shot my C's have at winning 18. I suffered through so many "just good enough to get beaten by Lebron in the playoffs", "what if so-and-so wasn't injured", and "next year is our year" seasons growing up. But this year is different. Rewatching the seasons the Celtics played the Lakers in the Finals is nostalgic like nothing else. It's more than basketball. I want to see a ring on Tatum's finger regardless of who we play, but there's no one I'd rather face in the Finals (if we get there) than the Lakers.
Agree on all points. 2010 was the true rematch, too bad we didn't get something similar in 2009. It would have been interesting to see how the Finals would have gone if Shaq hadn't gotten injured. The Celtics were something ridiculous like 20 - 2 before the injury.
Thanks for the footage. Seeing PP and KG's return tonight made me feel nostalgic. Man, stuff like this makes me miss that team so much.
Celtics: Garnett, rondo, pierce , Allen what a great team!!
posey too...small ball kings...
And Eddie House who was good for a couple 3s
Ray Allen should have actually won MVP of the series
Nah 2010 if they won
This was back when comebacks were actually meaningful and hard to pull off
Still is lmao
Mapfal no it’s not. A 24 point lead in the NBA now is nothing. The game is significantly different now than it was in 08
@@sinnoboy0000 24 point lead is nothing?
jason moukala now? Yes. Its literally nothing.
@@sinnoboy0000 How? Please explain
I think that Celtic team deserved at least 1 more championship, maybe the one in 2009 when they lost in the Eastern conference finals to the Magic, and definately in 2010 when they took the lakers to a game 7 without Perkins. That Celtic team was just too good to have only won 1 in my opinion. It should have been a 3-peat 2008 to 2010. Shoulda coulda woulda.... I'm going to go there: I think Doc Rivers could have done better to get them one more championship, although some of you may think that Rivers is the only reason we won in 2008 to begin with.
Ainge fucked it up in 2010 by not getting any rebounders. Instead he made that pointless Nate Robinson trade.
you guys should've won in 2010. but that whistle fest 4th quarter in game 7 robbed you
2nd year they were better but KG got hurt
No KG in 2009, Refs screwed the Celtics in game 7 of 2010...injuries are part of the game but I really think they deserved that title in 2010.
PersianSelection more like if Andrew bynum and ariza played in 2008 lakers win 3 straight titles instead of 2...2008,2009,2010.
Legend has it Ray Allen’s reverse lay up on Gasol still has him bamboozle till today.
One of the Greatest Games!
That game is one of the best I watched as a Celtics fan . I was always believing in the truth to comeback and “Beat LA, Beat LA, Beat LA!”
I still think ray Allen should have been finals MVP. In my opinion he was the best player in the series. Epic performance from one of the 10 greatest 2 guards ever.
Samuel Birku same
honestly could've gone to pierce kg or allen. i also think allen should've gotten it but i think they just gave it to pierce because he was the original celtic
Ray Allen played every single minute in this game, should've been finals MVP.
That lefty layup with about 16 seconds left to seal the deal in this game was about as sweet of play you will see in a Finals game and the moment I remember most about this series. Agreed about Allen.
Pierce had a 38 point game in a loss the next game somehow got him the MVP makes no sense
I love to look back at this...... what a team. 2010 makes me mad to this day. We were the best
2008, first year of high school, diehard Boston Fan. To see my Boston team come together like this when it mattered most, putting the team first by bringing out the best in themselves to overcome the impossible. Honestly. Brought tears to my eyes
this Celtics generation was just... on another level
the 2008 celtics had p.j. house posey kg rondo pierce perkins cassell davis tony to a lesser degree ray and scal heck even from non playing in a suit benched pollard..the shit talking on that team was legendary..everyone ran their mouth besides like maybe leon powe....and even he did at times...
Greatest comeback in NBA History!
This is a real diamond, i watched it with teras in my eyes... # *_CELTICS PRIDE_*
I wouldve loved to see a finals between this 2008 celtics team and the Spurs. That would've be a true contest between two TEAMS.
Lol that would've gone to triple overtime if possible.
it would be just like Heat Spurs in 2013 and 2014
Lakers dusted them Spurs fool
Mr. Dunn He is talking about the 2014 spurs team fool
Man I remember watching this game live when I was 11. Even though I'm not a Celtics nor am I a Laker fan this game was probably my favorite basketball game ever. Was such a fun game.
Lakers fans always point to the Finals two years later and feel they got one up on the C's. But the Celtics fought like men and were 4 pts shy in a Game 7. I'll take that. The memory of the 2008 Finals is so much sweeter. This comeback. The Game 6 smackdown. Celtics lose like men, but win like giants.
+Jason Holguin I don't give a damn if they lost by a point on a buzzer beater from half court, they lost. Lakers got the last laugh.
haha, refs helped the Celtics more than the lakers, they still choked a 13 point lead away lol
jocriss games 2 4 and 5 refs and game 7
jocriss and all the missed calls, refs didn't help the lakers in game 7 Celtics fucking choked lol
jocriss What the fuck are you taking about, the Celtics choked, how do you give up a 13 point lead, fucking pathetic
This is how legit Celtics player is from 2008 unstoppable big3 to this 2018 new era lets go celtics lets blew this haters and their bias😉
This celtics team was a joy to watch. I miss it.
Can’t believe it’s been 11 years. Time really flies by. Thanks for this clip I’ve watched it so many times.
Am I the only Celtics fan that can't get enough of rewatching this video almost every other day? This is just way to epic. Still reminiscing..
Man time flies all these guys are out the league except rondo and Ariza rip kobe
why did the rim and net look/sound cooler back then
The uniforms too
To many bricks
Lol Ikr there's a certain nostalgic feeling when I watch highlights from the 2000s era and the rim sound and the uniforms are a reason why
+GangSquad yup same with the 90s too man I miss those days
They rig the net now
I'm Celtics fan, and I love this video I could watch 1,000 times much I want to!
Kobe was pissed walking into that locker room
posey pierce ray tony kg and even pesky rondo ..i would be pissed too ..thats a scary team to go against for kobe...they had so many guys to cover him
This is the most satisfying game I ever watched.
jesus ray allens jumpshot is beautiful
Of course this pops up just after it happened to the Warriors
Had to watch this after the amazing performance from the clippers yesterday. I honestly gave up on them and went to bed. Got straight up to start the day after I saw the score. Doc Rivers is an amazing coach.
Can't Wait To Play With This Team On NBA 2K16!!
ill never recover from this. bad defense, kobe choked when he knew he had to prevent a 3-1 lead
That's what happens when you have a team that plays too much iso
yup.. such a great series though man
verkzkillsz great? great doesnt end in a 40 point mess in game 6. 2010 was great
kobe did his part sashas defense made kobe look bad just too think besides paul and ariza all those guys are not in the nba no more if he had a bynum ray would have not taken in that easy
David Pineda Sasha came back and he sucked to some degree but was a good 3 pt shooter Ariza is a good player and he started for the hornets and now the rockets. Bynum was alwayd hurt and 09 was statiscally his prime beginning
With Brian Scalabrine on the roster. Coincidence? I think not.
10 years later. Kobe 🐐rest in peace
I remember watching this on TV the day they had that game. That comeback was amazing.
Remember watching this in a bar with a buddy. Had never really watched Paul Pierce play before and remember loudly going "Jesus, he's good!" while watching this. This was a hell of a game.
Lebron and the Cavs put up more of a challenge than kobe and the lakers in 2008 lmao. God damn i wish we would have saw cavs vs lakers in the finals. Lebron always does good against kobes lakers.
You realize that the lakers have been doing much better in games this season on the games without Kobe in them right? I wouldn't consider that his team anymore.
***** I have respect for him. He's a great player but they spent way too much money on him for him to be injured half of the time he should be playing
Ur stupid
Yeah because we saw how well the cavs did in the finals in 2007. Smh.
Garnett pierce ray house posey the original death lineup
yep and they were deadly from the 3 point line. them vs the current warriors would be an amazing series to watch
lol
tony allen and glen davis were the celtics 11 and 12th men lol..staked roster...posey powe house rondo perkins brown cassel...and people say it was just about the big 3 lol...yeah right....posey could guard point guards hit 3's guard centers and pfs and guard lebron joe rip and kobe...it was a big 4
razkable I actually considered them a big 4 since Rondo was pretty much a star already
Pan D Man aka Pandaman absolutely it was so easy to see he played like a vet in his early years...i dont know if they win without him
Derek Fisher's lay-up keeps the Lakers rolling and Pau Gasol's right handed slam at the other end!
Posey reminds me of Horry. Great 3 and D guy, not afraid of the moment, steps it up in the playoffs. Role players/veterans like them are so valuable to teams. The term "role player" sometimes carries a negative stigma, but never underestimate a player who performs his role exceptionally well like James Posey did.
James Posey was really the unsung hero for this championship team.
Nothing makes Lakers fan feel more at home than being beat at home in the finals by the Celtics.
not true..la won game 7 in 2010 game 6 in 1987 to close out those series and game 5 1985 tied at 2-2 all at home...la is 3-2 vs boston in the post 60's nba in finals..and won 2 of them at home
Oh man...I loved this Celtics team, they were so good..
the only celtics team to win in 35 years lol...
There would have been no Celtics championship that year without Ray Allen's masterful run! Respect!
when you realized Doc Rivers coached a team out of a deficit lol
he got lucky that year his gm added house posey cassell and that boston added at the last second p.j. and that leon got to play due to pierce's injury is all i will say..those guys saved the season...the team was about to go down in flames like always under doc if not for some lucky moves and moments...like adding guys with poise like cassell p.j. and posey really did save their season vs the cavs and lakers... and powe in game 2 vs la is still one of the most random big halfs from a 3rd stringer i ever seen...
Must be helping Boston cause Philly lost exactly like that
I miss the big finals trophy logo (07,08,09)
Way back 2008 i was 5th grade and this is the 1st nba final series i have watched, even thou every people in my place always cheer up for lakers(specially kobe) deep down i am rooting for the guys in green, was really amazed on how the celtics played the series and eventually winning the title fast forward And now year 2019 and im still a celtics fan ☘☘
Looking back now... this was an amazing game, but man was it a rollercoaster ride of emotions when i watched it.
If they could have kept this particular roster together a little longer, no telling how many championships they could have won. This was a great roster, plenty of depth, great coaching - a dynasty in the making...
Cant imagine how kobe felt after this game,knowing his way of competing you could tell how this one hurt
He kinda chokes as the sentimental favorite. But he's clutch as the killer
The greatest comeback in NBA Finals history 🏀 period!!!!! Long live the Celtics, from a Greens fan since the late 80s...yep, THE lovely eighties 💚
one of my all time favorite nba games.
the lakers watched scalabrine in the bench and got scared
Yeah, Celtics had White Mamba to encounter late Kobe 😄😄
Scalabrine did not play in the 2008 playoffs but was big in 2009 as the Celtics fought almost the the eastern finals with Garnett out.
Who's watching this amazing comeback at 2020? R.I.P Kobe Bryant.
I loved this team they are champions for a reason! and I'll always remember this game they overcame came back and showed that they had Celtic Pride☘️
One of my fav series to watch, The Celtics showed grit, composure and everything it took to win. Even more impressive that this was their FIRST finals together lol.
Imagine if it will be Lakers vs. Celtics in this year's finals
If Kevin Garnett doesn't get hurt in 09 and the Celtics don't choke away a 13 pt 2nd half lead in game 7, this would have been a 3peat
Jishnu Purihella Celtics lost the 2010 series early when they blew home-floor. No way they were winning games 6 or 7 at Staples, even though they had a lead in game 7. Thy were getting murdered in the boards
Lakers 3 peat if they held on to win this game. Works both ways
Mr. Dunn there’s no way the Lakers would win game 7 in Boston in 2008. Just like there was no way the Celtics were gonna win game 7 in LA in 2010 even though they had the lead
@@MrDunn490 Lakers needed Ron Artest.
Garnett was never the same again after that injury it was a slow decline he just seemed a bit slower
That was a GREAT series!!!
Awesome edit for this video man thanks for sharing
I miss the Big 3 :(
There's something about Boston and it's all their major sports that's just sexy and beautiful to watch.
+Andrew Henderson No Pause
My city bro. Love it. U sound like u need to visit
ew boston sucks
Lebron sucks ^
Yeah Boston sports teams in the playoffs often provide special moments, the Red Sox 0-3 comeback and breaking the curse, pretty much every Celtics vs Lakers finals, pretty much every Patriots SB.
Man, that 08’ celtics team was something else…
Boston Sports fans I swear are blessed with comebacks in bigtime moments. 2002 Celtics comeback against Nets in the 4th quarter to win the game in conference finals. 2004 Red Sox playoffs comeback down 0-3 against the yankees to break the curse of the bambino. 2008 Comeback against Lakers. 2015 Patriots comeback in the Superbowl. There has to be something about Boston that brings out the best in its players when they're down.
2:47 that had to be the luckiest play in NBA history lol
Damn James Posey the goat
Those were some fun years in Boston!!!!
This team was crazy!
Yeah this was a super team lol
Has it been 8 years already? Edit: Has it been 15 years already?
yes
10 years
12 years 😭
14, now
I was at this game with my brother. That meltdown was so disappointing to witness. We were pissed! Game 7 in 2010 made up for it though!! RIP BLACK MAMBA Thanks for the memories.
I very ❤️❤️❤️this game!!!Memories!Celtics fanatic 2008 NBA CHAMPS !!!yeheeey!RIP Kobe though ❤️u!
