Rating  - Enjoyable viewing.
I enjoyed watching this DVD and liked seeing the behind the scenes segments more than anything. I would have liked to see more of the championship celebration but the pre-season and seasonal coverage was good and satisfying.
Rating  - Dissapointed
I was disappointed as someone who had followed the Celtics season and their progress through the playoffs. There wasn't enough of the game play, and too much of the "fluff" that I suppose is necessary to please a wider audience. Fortunately, I "DVR'd" enough of the playoffs that I will now record over to DVD's for my own preference in a memorial of a great team effort.
Rating  - Highlights Only?
I was sorely disappointed that the producers of this DVD did not include complete game footage, particularly for the finals. What's there is good, but why not produce a product like the Red Sox 2004 and 2007 championship DVD packages? Was the Celtic's championship not on a par?
Rating - Just Ok.
Having watched most of the Celtics' games throughout the season and Playoffs, I expected to relive the same emotion I experienced since last november. But knowing that this DVD came out not long after the Finals, I knew it wouldn't be that great. It's obvious that they left out a lot of things that could have been compiled, had they waited and done a better job. Well, that's what you get when things are done in a rush just to get the product out and make fast bucks.
The main feature is well done, but don't count on enjoying the extras as much. They have the Playoffs' 4th quarter of the games against Cleveland and Detroit. What about the final game against the Lakers? I could do without the 4th quarter videos, if they had the whole last game against the Lakers. Or do something like the "Boston Celtics 1985-86 Champions" box and include all the Finals' games.
How about something on "Gino Time", the American Bandstand video that had everybody dancing on home wins?
There was also only one of the 2 or 3 videos NBA had on their site featuring conversations between Bill Russell and Kevin Garnett.
In the end, it was a DVD that will remind you of the season you just watched, but not something that will give you goosebumps and make you relive all the emotions in the future.
