SEATTLE - Al Horford is another great example that age is just a number. The 37-year-old veteran had one of his best games in the playoffs to close out the series against the Cleveland Cavaliers and send the Boston Celtics to their third consecutive Eastern Conference Final.
Horford had a game for the ages: 22 points on 53% shooting from the field, 15 rebounds, five assists, three blocks and even contributed with one steal. No matter what the Cavs did, they simply couldn't stop Horford. He became the first player in NBA history with 20+ points, 15+ rebounds, 5+ three-pointers made and 3+ blocks in a playoff game.
