Boston Celtics and the Garden - a photo on Flickriver

Last week I visit the first time in my life a game of the Boston Celtics. It was an amazing experience. The garden is an awesome place and the atmosphere was exciting. The game was very tight all the time, but at the end the Boston Celtics won. Great for us and great for Boston.
I don’t have much experience in sports photography and do not have the right equipment. I used mainly a Tamron 70-300mm. It is very affordable, but the quality is of course not high end. I think it did its job here.
Although theses are not the best sports shots you can find on flickr, I hope you enjoy theses shots ;-)
