The Garden’s Final Game
Date: April 21, 1995
Memories of Boston Garden came back to the Celtics as they said goodbye to their home of 49 years. Team patriarch Red Auerbach and a galaxy of Celtics stars including Bill Russell, Bob Cousy and Larry Bird closed out the Garden with one last “fast break.” Said a sentimental Cousy, “I may be the only person who wants to keep [the Garden] another 20 years. You get to be my age, you get a whole slew of memories.”
