Not really, but that’s what one of our favorite sites proclaimed after the Celtics invited Bolt to sit court-side as they went for - and got - their 18th straight win. Bolt was a big hit in the Garden. While being interviewed during a break he told the crowd what a big fan he was of the C’s and especially KG. And at half-time he helped Lucky on one of his acrobatic dunks. Both drew loud applause.

Coach Doc Rivers invited Bolt into the locker room after the game. I was shocked how excited the players were to see him. Doc introduced Bolt by saying, “Guys, I think I found the only guy faster than Rondo.” (Although Rondo didn’t seem willing to accept that proclamation . . . hmmm, should we set up a race?) Then the players all took turns introducing themselves and many of them posed for pictures with the World’s Fastest Man. After the locker room visit we were able to convince the Celtics to let us out on the parquet for a little shoot around. Some fans were still in the arena and they ohh’d and ahh’d as Bolt threw down some monster dunks.
