PHOTO: Celtics gift Kobe a piece of TD Garden's parquet floor
The Kobe Bryant Farewell Tour made its way to Boston on Wednesday night, with the Los Angeles Lakers legend playing his last game at the TD Garden - a building in which he played two NBA Finals matchups against the Celtics in 2008 and 2010.
To honor "The Black Mamba," Boston's President of Basketball Operations Danny Ainge, Team President Rich Gotham, and Managing Partner Steve Paglucia presented Bryant with a piece of the parquet floor:
The gift reads: "In recognition of your many legendary performances on the Parquet floor. From your friends and rivals, The Boston Celtics."
