No compatible source was found for this media.

Many readers were reluctant to specify a single Celtics player as the one with the most mental and physical toughness, and I under stand why. I am exactly of the same mind. So after the vote for toughest all-time Celtic, I will present the starting-5-plus-2 all-time Celtics tough guys.

Bill Russell actually came out on top in the voting, but Larry Bird and Isaiah Thomas came very close - while Paul Pierce, John Havlicek, Rajon Rondo and Kevin Garnett got some attention.
