KG, Truth and Doc Reunite for first time since parting ways




Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Doc Rivers reunite for the first time time since leaving the Celtics.

You all know the story of how in 2008 KG joined Doc and Pierce to help bring the championship back to Boston for the first time since 1986.

In their time in Boston, Pierce endeared himself to Celtics fans like me, Doc helped Pierce mature into a man, and KG brought a whole dimension of dedication, passion and devotion to the Celtics.

It's surreal to see the three of them together but on different teams.

I don't know how much longer they will be playing. Pierce has one year remaining and KG has two but can call it a day after this year.

I hoped to attend this game since the schedule came out. Luckily for me I happen to be in LA and have tickets for the game as if it were destiny.

If I can get past how surreal it is, it will be very emotional for me.

Seeing them leave was hard to swallow.

It will still be hard for me to watch but I have to see them for one last time.

It's my last chance to see them in person and appreciate the memories I have of what they mean to the Celtics.
