"Who is your favorite Celtics player, past or current?"

Joshua S. Miller – Holland & Knight LLP
"Ray Allen, since he always plays with a quiet confidence. Unassuming, but very effective. Plus, he was great in He Got Game."

Kendi E. Ozmon – Ropes & Gray LLP
"My favorite Celtic is Lucky. While he's not a player, I have a lot more in common with a short guy in a leprechaun outfit than I do with gigantic, physically-gifted professional athletes. Besides, Lucky dunks (everyone should be able to use a trampoline)."

Jonathan M. Ettinger – Foley Hoag LLP
"That's easy. John Havlicek, one of the best NBA players ever. Known for his hard work, determination, and pride, Hondo always came through in the clutch."

Elaine Tung – Law Office of Elaine Tung
"Paul Pierce.  I've been following him for his ten-year career.  His response to adversity and the way he’s changed his game and matured through the years is really inspiring.  Paul is a true Celtic."

Barry R. Smith – Edwards Angell Palmer & Dodge LLP
"Larry Bird. He and Magic Johnson were responsible for reinvigorating the NBA in the 1980s, and Bird epitomized playing as a team and also playing to win."

Jeanne P. Darcey – Edwards Angell Palmer & Dodge LLP
"My favorite Celtic is Paul Pierce. He is the heart and soul of the team; and this year really showed everyone that he is all-around player. His effort in the finals was incredible, especially given his knee injury, and I was thrilled that he was named MVP."

Robert Richards, Jr. – Hanify & King, PC
"James Posey, for his solid defense and three-point shooting."
