Good Bye DJ

Dennis Johnson died today.

No Celtic ever wanted to win more than DJ.

I will never forget the 1987 Eastern Conference Finals game where he scored the winning basket off a feed from Larry Bird. Bird had stolen an inbounds pass from the great Isaiah Thomas. I can see that play like it was yesterday, and when I read he had died, that play flashed into my memory.

Sorry to see you go so soon DJ. My condolences to your family.
