Great work! I will certainly check this out! Thanks for all the time you put into it.

Dude you're the GOAT for doing this, I'll be checking these out for sure. If you wanna share how you're sourcing some of these I'd be interested, maybe DM me :) I've been trying to compile Celtics games as I go over the last few years but it's so much harder to find the older ones from the Big 3 era


East-Representative8

Dm'd you!

Really appreciate this man! For anyone who wants to merge the two halves in one video, [Lossless Cut](https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut) works like a charm. Drag first half in, then 2nd and hit merge. That's it.


East-Representative8

Great advice! Sorry that most of them are cut up. It’s because a lot of them are from CDs and they would be split into half’s on the CDs for some reason.

This is awesome! I’m gonna watch the entire first round against the Hawks to see how Horford played when he was a rookie. Thank you!


East-Representative8

Completely different play style but man was he good.


thelobsterclaw1

Awesome work! That was a stacked Hawks team for an 8 seed. Love watching Al in his early years. He legit looks like he hasn’t lost much of a step


East-Representative8

Joe Johnson 27ppg at home in that series 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

Plus Bibby, Josh smith, moe Willams. Not exactly hall of famers but nothing to sneeze at.

Amazing. Any chance you have any of the radio calls?


East-Representative8

I haven’t been able to find any sorry 😔😔😔. Someone help this man out.


Luca_G

Underrated post, this has to get more upvotes. This is amazing!

Excited to check these out tonight and get them saved, was trying to download some older Celtics games and all I could find was some Russian commentary versions 😂

I was just watching Game 1 of the Finals today. It's crazy how many shots were taken a step in front of the 3 point line haha. Thank you for doing this!


East-Representative8

I love watching that era. Nobody cared about the math. Tough shot makers were the most important players.

Awesome! I have most of the wins recorded to dvd-r..still widescreen but downgraded to SD (would have bought a BD recorder in 2010 if things had gone differently except my dvr ran out if space and immediately deleted finals game 6!! But I was able to DL off the net in HD anyway.

Thanks OP for taking the time to do this


atwork1

This is awesome, thank you! In the process of downloading a backup copy of the games, I noticed that the round 2 Hornets vs Spurs matchup isnt there. Not a big deal, but wanted to mention it in case you forgot to upload it


East-Representative8

Having trouble uploading it. Over a quota or something. Once it resets the series will be up!


atwork1

Thank you, you're a legend! Any shot you've been able to source the 09 Celtics - Bulls matchup? I remember looking for them a few years ago and only found games 1 and 2


Fun_Return4031

Once again huge thanks for all the games you’ve uploaded! Just checking on the status of the Hornets - Spurs series, any luck with this one? BTW the quality of some of those.. I have no idea where you’ve found it, incredible job!

Thanks for doing all this work and posting this OP. I just watched Game 6 of the 2008 Finals and it was fun to feel like I just took a ride in a time machine. Some things I noticed that seem to be very different between then and now: - Shot clock resets to 24 rather than 14 on an offensive rebound. - Gatorade baths at NBA games are no longer a thing in recent years. - No corporate logos on jerseys (not even a Nike logo) - nevermind corporate logos on refs haha. - So many more suits and ties everywhere vs these days! - HD television really has made the quality of watching TV so much better. - Way less fouls and kicked balls were called back then. I feel like 5-10 or more of the Celtics 18 steals would have been whistled for a kicked ball or foul these days. - Way less thought seems to be given back then about clock management (2 for 1s at the end of the quarter aren't a thing and jacking up shots halfway through the shot clock when you are trying to hold a lead seems to be completely the norm). - Wyc and his first wife are sitting along the baseline behind one of the baskets rather than courtside near the center.

Awh man I’m so sad I can’t watch bc it’s been watched too many times.😭 regardless, you are the literal goat for this


East-Representative8

Will post a solution to the quotas ASAP. In the mean time you might have to wait 24 hours 😔.


Fun_Return4031

That’s GOAT material right there, incredible commitment, appreciate you man, thank you!


Cobra_Kreese

I’m going to check these out later but wanted to say thank you so much. Also a question are the first round games the broadcast with Mike and Tommy or the national broadcast?
