Video: Kemba Walker discusses his motivation for coming to Boston




Kemba Walker appeared on ESPN tonight and discussed his decision to come to Boston.

The Celtics' newly acquired point guard stated, "It was a really tough decision but it was something I had to do in order to fulfill some dreams of mine and compete... I wanted to be part of something really special as far as really being able to compete at the highest level and give myself the best opportunity to make a run in the playoffs."



Walker also cited Boston's rich championship pedigree: "When you think of the Celtics, you think of championships. You think of winning, and that's what I'm about. I'm about competing for championships and winning, and that's something I haven't been able to do throughout the early years of my career. I haven't been a consistent winner in this league. I just felt like Boston was the best fit for me to try and accomplish those kinds of goals."
