Will kevin garnett play in game 7 after the injury?”
The Celtics never had a pass in this series, never an out because Garnett was gone. No one expects them to win a title without Garnett, but the burden of defending a Celtics championship wouldn’t have allowed for a title defense to have vanquished so soon. “It was one hell of a series,” the Celtics coach said as he stopped to embrace Vinny Del Negro, his old teammate with the San Antonio Spurs. The Boston Celtics and Bulls had gone seven games and seven overtimes in an epic Eastern Conference playoff series and, now, a 109-99 Game 7 victory had Rivers turning to Del Negro with empathetic eyes and a long, firm embrace.
