* What is significant about this chant is that it spontaneously arose at the Celtic’s house, the old garden, while they were decisively beat by the Philadelphia 76’s in a game 7 back in ’82. Philly did not go on to beat L.A. but the chant is being resurrected mightily as the Celtics will beat LA this year. Large Crowd chants are amazing sonic and psychological folk music…
