Blast the Past: '97 Celtics Draft Special (LIVE)

[Beat LA]

Tomorrow at 8pm eastern time, csnne will be replaying the 1997 draft special with Pitino, Tommy, and everybody, followed by a reaction-type program at 9 where fans can weigh in, etc.  I just have one question - why?  Why would you ever want to remind people of such a time?  Are they trying to set the bar really low for the upcoming draft, like, "see, it could be a lot worse." 

I was just a kid at the time, and didn't start watching the NBA until I became a Celtics fan in 04-05, so from that standpoint, it could be equally interesting and nauseating.  What do you guys think?  I think they had a brief clip of Pitino as part of the ad for it.  Just thought I'd let everyone know.

and the clip.  What a clown -

Scottie Pippen?  Did anyone actually think that that was going to happen?

Me thinks a more appropriate title would have been a slightly-altered version of a Kevin Hart special, as in, "The Boston Celtics - Laugh at our Pain"   since that is apparently the goal of this program.
