When Danny Ainge is interviewed lately, he uses the word "fun" a lot. Can you blame him?
This Celtics team with all of the injuries was never supposed to get this far. The team had nothing to lose. Whatever they accomplished in the playoffs would be a success. That's not good enough for Danny.
He is proud of what his troops have accomplished, and he truly believes this group, with the right effort and a few breaks, can go all the way. According to the Boston Herald's Steve Bulpett Ainge felt Boston had a 50/50 shot against Milwaukee and were underdogs versus Philadelphia.
