Celtics.com has a couple of things of note. One, Wally will have his ankle reevaluated this week. My thoughts are that they may shut him down to let the ankles heal completely. Second, DJ will be honored at tonight's game against the Knicks.
Please join the Boston Celtics organization in memorializing the life of Dennis Johnson at tonight's game vs. the New York Knicks.

The first 5,000 fans in attendance will receive an exclusive commemorative DJ lapel pin. The Celtics will also hold a moment of silence before the National Anthem, along with a special tribute video just before tip off.

Gates open at 6:30 p.m., so join us at the Garden early to honor DJ with pregame events. Highlights of his extraordinary career will continue to be shown throughout the game.

Pierce is ready to share the torch.

“That’s the name of the game in the NBA,” he said. “I think when you’re a player like me you’re always searching for that next guy that can give you that consistent threat.

“You know, I got blamed before for not passing to my teammates, but I didn’t really have the type of teammates who could maintain that type of consistency. So maybe I was forced into taking bad shots, and I took a lot of the heat for it. But that’s what I’m here for. Now that you see a guy like Al playing like this, it makes everyone more confident.”
