Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, and the Rebirth of the Boston Celtics
The Boston Celtics are one of the most storied franchises in NBA history, with a proud tradition that dates back to the early days of the league. But by the early 2000s, the Celtics had fallen on hard times, missing the playoffs in five of the previous six seasons.
In 2007, the Celtics made a bold move to acquire two future Hall of Famers in Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett. The following year, they added another future Hall of Famer in Ray Allen.
The trio of Pierce, Garnett, and Allen quickly formed one of the most dynamic and talented teams in the NBA. They led the Celtics to the NBA Finals in 2008, where they defeated the Los Angeles Lakers in six games to win the franchise's 17th NBA championship.
