Moments removed from the Celtics’ 105-102 Game 4 triumph over the Pacers on Monday, ESPN reporter Lisa Salters asked Al Horford a straightforward yet illuminating question.
“How hungry are you to finally get that title?” Salters asked.
“Starving. Starving,” Horford said. “We ready for it. We can’t wait.”
The Celtics are heading back to the NBA Finals, and they should get the Game 1 t-shirts ready now: Horford’s screaming face in the center, “STARVING” on the front and “Ready For It” on the back. People might even wear the shirts instead of just taking them home.
