It was an OK speach. He mentioned that we were the best crowd in the NBA. HE thanked us for sticking wih them through the bad years(even tho a lot of the people there did not stick with us). He said something about putting up number 17 for Red. And he ended with "Let's go Celtics"

I wish KG and Allen said a line or two, that woulda been sweet.

I'd imagine, then, that it was pretty similar to what he said before the opener? It's amazing that he could give similar variations of that speech to start and end the season. Hopefully he has one more in him for a trophy presentation in June...
Go Celtics.

Most importantly, he said, "We vow that this time next year this won't be our last game, we'll be going into the playoffs and we're gonna make some noise.. We're gonna have something special in store for next year!"

Its not the whole speech but its the best i can find for now

Here it is at the end of this introduction.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."
