People of Catcher

Mr. spencer

To adult: The Celtics aren't that good in basketball. They won last year but they won't repeat as champions because the Pistons will win. The Pistons in my opinion are the best team in basketball.

To a friend: The Celtics think that they are hot shit because they won the championship. The Pistons will romp their faces if they play them in the playoffs. 

Holden: You know what annoys me? Those god damn Celtics. They are all phony the year they won the championship because they got some good players. It kills me to say this but the Pistons are the best team in the NBA.
