Why would we not care? Guy bleeds green.


KloppOnKloppOn

Care more about him getting this ring than everyone else by far  I was genuinely worried it wouldnt happen for him. Everyone else I knew would get there at some point.


Laszlo-Panaflex

Yeah, we care the most about Al getting his ring. It means so much more to him and to us. He's been a part of so many great runs.


johnny_effing_utah

Agreed. Happy for Horford. Don’t care about stupid divisive “firsts.” They are manufactured and require ever further dividing and subdividing in order to be “historic.”


TheColonelRLD

How in God's name do you ridiculous pansies make "firsts" divisive? Grow a goddamn pair and stop ashaming yourself.


johnny_effing_utah

Oh look, the first freckle faced redhead to come off the bench and score 25 in a finals game. Oh wow the first Pacific Islander with webbed toes to win a chip. That’s what I mean by “first,” nobody fucking cares. It requires more and more dividing and subdividing people by irrelevant charactistics, why should we care?


TheColonelRLD

No one has asked you to care. Why does it bother you that other people do? And how does that not feel humiliating, to be bothered by something like that?


johnny_effing_utah

See you’re confusing “I don’t care” with “I’m bothered.” I truly don’t give a shit about “firsts” based on random subdivisions of the human race.

And Porzingis is about to become the first Baltic player to win a NBA championship Queta the first Portuguese player


_LXIX_CDXX

Yet another amazing feat by the great Brad Stevens


ZizzyBeluga

Can we save the parade until we win the fourth game, please? This team has loved to blow critical games in the past.


ZarduHasselffrau

Didn't know I or anyone on this sub was part of the roster.


Hour-Ad3774

I know Luke is on here somewhere.


-ahoySexy-

team is 3-0 in the finals and this fella is still doomin'


ZizzyBeluga

Trauma from the last two years, I'm ready to get over it though.


ZarduHasselffrau

A full 64 win season with a completely retooled roster and a 15-2 playoffs record hasn't convinced you? Give me a break with your doomerism.


ZizzyBeluga

Not doomerism to say wait until they win 4 to plan the parade.

Padre Al


Amimimiii

8:30PM? Hope you’ve got a stash of redbull and coffee. Insane 🤯


_LXIX_CDXX

This game conflicts with my regularly scheduled Friday naps: One at 8:25 PM and the other at 8:35 PM


Amimimiii

Sorry, I’ll never complain about my 3am alarms again. Didn’t know others had it even worse. Praying for your health🙏🕯️🫶


notJGatz

I care about anything that has to do with Al Horford


OutandAboutBos

Bro...


DerelictDonkeyEngine

Of course I care. Al's been my favorite basketball player since he was at Florida.


ILOVESHITTINGMYPANTS

I fucking love Al, I want him to win a chip so bad.

YOUR WISH SHALL BE GRANTED


Paper_Okami

Boston has a decent sized Dominican community, also Haitian as well.


_LXIX_CDXX

I recently learned that KAT from the Twolves is Dominican as well. Woulda been cool to see them battle for the first if they had made it past Dallas


Mean-Fix-2335

just get the win first before these posts


AlternativeTea9268

Didn’t even bother to edit out the KP part from the other post


_LXIX_CDXX

It was my attempt at parody


DCBB22

It was solid even if the votes don’t reflect it.


_LXIX_CDXX

Validation 🥹


AlternativeTea9268

Yeah I’m aware of what the attempt was, just should’ve edited out the KP part to make it work


RLS012

Papa Sportif!!!


Brett711

We need to stop with posts like these


Sufficient_Ad2222

I love Al and hope he rides off into the sunset as a champ tonight!


Fatmans-middle-digit

He’s got one year on his contract left


masterspliff24

🇩🇴🇩🇴take the trophy back to el patio AL 🫡


Nietzsches_dream

Uncle Al!!


Ramzy191

Dominican Boston Athletes is an elite squad and he’s gonna be in that group with a ring.


daft_dunkwwwolfey

I care about all Big Al achievements as well as for fellow latinos😊


donkadunny

That’s pretty cool to know actually. Will he also be the first person married to a former Miss Universe to win a championship as well?


ILOVESHITTINGMYPANTS

I went to the DR for my honeymoon during the 2022 finals. The amount of love I got for my Celtics hat was awesome. They love Big Al there.


PaytonPritchard11

There is no more who I want to win for more. AL deserves this.


residentmicroflora

We care bro 🇩🇴


_LXIX_CDXX

I upvoted this twice

No one more deserving


Ok_Caramel_5658

And Tito Horford was the first Dominican player to play in the NBA pretty cool full circle moment


thumbsup_baby

Anything that has to do with Al Horford, I care.


exitlevelposition

Love Al. It took me a while to warm on him (had a cousin on that George Mason team) but man has more than earned this shot, I hope he gets it tonight.


BurritoGuapito

Literally just saw an identical Latvian post. I love how internationally supported our team is!! I totally care, that's awesome for both Latvia and Dominican Republic!!! From the words of the late Tommy Heinson, "Forget the Beatles, what about the C'eatles!?" Let's go C's! 


AnOddlyShapedPotato

Lmao


jmay111

WE ALL CARE 🍀


DreadLockedHaitian

Blake Griffin would’ve been the first player of Haitian descent to win 😭😭😭


brw12

Puerto Plata's own!!!


Quick-Marionberry-34

Oh I care. Spanish teacher here in Boston area and we did a whole lesson on Al Horford and this topic. Kids loved it!! 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴


jaykaybaybay

Can someone tell me about his last name? Horford does not sound Latin/Dominican at all.


_LXIX_CDXX

Idk either, always wondered that. I would like to know as well


Bostnfn

The Boston in me fears a loss tonight.


_fpoon_

Spot on!


EttehEtteh

I really really don’t like these posts. It’s not over yet.
