The Celtics had a clear domination in the league and they had played a large part in the playoffs of the late 1950s through the mid 1980s. The team had seen a bad phase right after the death of their top draft pick Len Bias. They could only make the playoffs for four times from 1996 to 2007. The franchise has acquired the momentum in the recent past; with the addition of power forward Kevin Garnett and shooting guard Ray Allen during the 2007 off-season. The Boston Celtics have won their 17th championship, by beating the Los Angeles Lakers 4–2 in the 2008 NBA Finals, on June 17, 2008. The history of the Celtics is full of struggle, especially in the early years, till the hiring of Coach Red Auerbach. It was a time, when one of the first major players, Bob Cousy, had joined the team. He was drafted by other team, but was acquired back by the Celtics in a dispersal draft. Auerbach had made a very intelligent trade after the 1955–56 seasons. He had sent perennial All-Star Ed Macauley to the St. Louis Hawks along with the draft rights to Cliff Hagan in exchange for the Hawks' first round draft pick. Auerbach used the pick to select University of San Francisco center Bill Russell along with NBA Rookie of the Year 1957, Tommy Heinsohn. Russell and Heinsohn really worked hard with Cousy, and created a trio for the up rise of the Celtics for more than a decade. After that Celtics next championship win came in 1976 under the leadership of Coach Tom Heinsohn, who was also the former player of the team. The Celtics claimed their 13th NBA Championship after beating Phoenix Suns in 6 games. After coaching Celtics for 9 seasons, Heinsohn retired as the coach of Celtics on January 3, 1978. Heinsohn, after his retirement, was replaced by Tom Sanders. In 1981, as Celtics made their way to the NBA finals after defeating 76ers in the Eastern Conference finals, Celtics claimed their 14th Championship victory after defeating Houston Rockets in the finals. Celtics next two Championship victories followed in 1984 and 1986 after defeating Los Angeles Lakers and Houston Rockets in the Finals respectively. After that Celtics faced a major decline and wasn’t able to make much impact on the court. Celtics returned in their full form and claimed their 17th and most recent championship victory in 2008. The Celtics started their season with impressive 8 consecutive wins and with a 66-16 record they concluded their season, after scoring most wins since their 1986 season. As Celtics made it in to the play offs they faced Detroit Pistons for the Eastern Championship, and claimed their victory to face Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA finals.
