Just got back from the Garden from my first "in person" game of the year. Also my daughter's first game ever (which was really fun).
- You could see from an early stage that Pierce had his legs under his jumpers for the first time in a while. Even on an early miss he had a lot more arc on it.
- Maybe Terry's best game as a Celtic. He was very much under control and hit a ginormous shot.
- It was cool to see Grant Hill one last time. One of my all time favorites, but man, he is beyond done.
- Club seats are worth the extra $$$, but a knucklehead sitting in front of you can suck the joy out of any priced seat (we moved and after the 1st and enjoyed the rest of the game).
- Lee looked super shaky
- Jordan is impressively bouncy in person
- Crowd was pretty much dead except when the Jumbotron told them when to make noise.
- a guy from the crowd just missed winning a car on a rimmed out half court shot. I have no idea how you get that close under pressure with no practice!
- Odom is still a jerk, just a less talent one now.
- Griffin seems smaller in person, and Pierce always seems bigger.
- Loved showing my daughter all of the banners!
