First of all, they shouldntve set the jersey retirement game on the Celtics-Cavs game. The Cavs are a strong opponent who we are battling for playoff position. Its going to be emotional and it could distract the team. Also the night could be slightly ruined with a loss. IMHO, it wouldve been better against a team like the Lakers who PP had a history with while also being relatively safe.
Second, I think they shouldve done the tribute last night. I mean if you think about it, sure IT requested it be moved, but I don't think it wouldve been a big deal if they went with it anyway.
Now its a mess, and whatever they do it has some negative spin on it. Should they just wait till next season to do it? I mean it looks to be the least divisive option.
PS. I loved what IT brought, and I understand what he meant to us, but personally, I dont like the idea of IT getting a bigger tribute than AB.
