For three uninterrupted minutes, the TD Garden crowd roared so loud you might have thought it was a playoff game.
This was a 25-point blowout in mid-January, against one of the worst teams in the league – as insignificant a regular season game as they come. But with the clock winding down, every Celtics fan in the building was dying to witness 19-year-old Jordan Walsh’s first NBA basket. His lone attempt at a three didn’t go, but the raucous crowd – yelling ‘swing it’ at his teammates – helped create a memory that would last forever.
