Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen Forced to Sit Together in Paul Pierce?s Hall of Fame Ceremony

Over the last two decades, the NBA has seen its fair share of big threes. While the Heat big three and Warriors big three were arguably the most successful in the last two decades, it was the Celtics’ trio of Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen who set the tone for the same.

Coming off of an abysmal 2006-07 season where the Celts had a record of 24 wins and 58 losses, much was not expected of the record champions. But President Danny Ainge made a huge swing in the off-season. Adding two All-Stars in Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett to the team, the Celtics were immediately a contender.

The Ainge experiment was fruitful. With Allen, Garnett and Pierce firing at all cylinders and a young Rajon Rondo chipping in, the Celts were unstoppable. Defeating Kobe and the Lakers, the Celtics won the championship in the very first season.
