``I think God sent an angel down and said, 'Hey you're going to be all right. You need to get back out there','' Pierce said.

When I was playing for them, the Boston Celtics won an unprecedented 11 championships in 13 seasons, from 1957 to 1969, by embracing a team strategy that I call "team ego." Team ego recognizes the collective alignment of everyone's individual talents for the benefit of the team. Team defense wins games. Team defense--that is, the coordinated efforts of five individuals--wins championships.

He's certainly one of the most informed and entertaining sports voices in today's media and we are very proud to have him as our guest this Sunday.

At the conclusion (approximately 8:30PM) of the game against The Magic (9-2 and leading the Southeast Division), a very strong test for the Celtics, Jughead, JB and the Duke will endeavor to do our season's first post game show.

Mark Piotrowski, long time poster to the legendary Celtics@ igtc.com mailing list , who has graced this show previously, as our salary cap expert, mesmerizing us with his statistical wizardry, will join us, as guest analyst.

While his premier exposure to the Boston fan base came on our show on August 26th, he was interviewed a month later by Hoops Hype, and gave this interesting quote on the timing of his hiring.
