Re: Who is your favorite Celtic of all time?
Paul Pierce. I'm too young to have seen and appreciated those older guys. I've only seen a few vintage videos on ESPN of Bird.

Re: Who is your favorite Celtic of all time?
i picked paul because i like Piston-PowerPierce am too young to know the older guys well enough and i love Pierces game. I model everything I do basketball-wise (except the occasional non-hustle) by Pierce.

Re: Who is your favorite Celtic of all time?
Pierce, for the same reasons as the others. I'm too young to know the other guys.

Larry Legend
Many fond moments growing up outside the city watching Bird - got to go to some great games when the Big Three were in their prime.

Re: Who is your favorite Celtic of all time?
I love PP but Bird is my all time favorite. Even though he wasn't very athletic he was much more fun then most players today.

Re: Who is your favorite Celtic of all time?
I went with Walker. I want to say Bill Russell, but I honestly can't as I never saw him play. Same is true for Bird and McHale, who I didn't see in their primes. I go with Walker for the energy and the intensity he brings every night out. I also think that he's one hell of a teammate and really cares about the kids on the team and helping them develop on and off the court.

Re: Who is your favorite Celtic of all time?
You guys are making me feel OLD! So far I'm the only one who has voted for Hondo  Seriously, I was just a kid watching on TV when he was finishing up his career in Boston, but growing up he was the player I always tried to emulate. I was lucky enough to watch Bird, McHale, Parish, etc. through all of their careers and there's no denying that the were great players, and what can you say about Cousy, Russell, etc. that hasn't been said hundreds of times before, but Havlichek is still my all time favorite.

Re: Who is your favorite Celtic of all time?
I will have to go with the #00, the chief - Robert Parish.
Everyone else has Russell and Cousy and Larry, but Parish was the blue collar worker, that never got the big props he deserved, it was always about Larry and Kevin. A more consistant player than Parish you have to search a long time for. With 1600 games under his belt, I call that experience.
