Seven years ago today, the Celtics won the NBA Championship

In Game Six of the Finals, the Celtics beat down the rival Lakers 131-92, in front of a jacked up Boston crowd.

On that magical night, Kevin Garnett and the Celtics proved that anything was possible!!!

Nobody, and I mean nobody, had more fun during the post-game celebration than KG, with Big Baby as a possible runner-up.
