	Original Celtics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Original Celtics, no relation to the equally famous Boston Celtics, were an outstanding barnstorming professional basketball team in the 1920s.
		The Original Celtics responded by so dominating the league in their first two seasons there that the league forced them to break up, and apportioned their players to the other teams.
		The team's roots lay in the New York Celtics team which disbanded during World War I. In 1918, James Furey reassembled his own team around a nucleus of those truly "original" Celtics, added other players mostly from the West Side of New York City, and defiantly called his new squad the Original Celtics.
