Bibby calls Boston backers 'fair weather' fans
Published 4/23/2008 at FOXSports.com News for NBA
Mike Bibby thought the Celtics' crowd was loud in the playoff opener. He should get an even bigger earful in Game 2 after slamming the fans.
Bibby called Boston's backers "fair weather" fans who jumped on the "bandwagon" when the Celtics grew from one of the NBA's worst teams last season into the one with the best record in the league this season.
"I wouldn't say it's the smartest comment," Kevin Garnett said Tuesday.
