A mere hours after ripping the Lakers’ bench for its funeral-esque excitement level during the Finals, modern day video technology has discovered Ronny Turiaf’s lone attempt at mimicking the liveliness of the Celtics’ bench.

As shown on the YouTube machine, Turiaf throws a towel to an assistant on the baseline as Pierce releases his second free throw shot. (He used the first shot as a practice swing). Only if Pierce had the peripheral vision of a pigeon, then maybe Turiaf’s Towel-Trusting technique would have worked at the professional level. But for now, scientific research shows that Towel-Trusting’s greatest distraction effectiveness peaks at the 4th- and 5th-grade city youth basketball level.

Wait a second…. literally throwing in the white towel? Celtics in 6.
