Greg Stiemsma had a nice game against the New Jersey Nets on Saturday night, but it was what happened after the game that had him tweeting with excitement.
Stiemsma, fresh off a six-point, nine-rebound performance in Boston's 94-82 victory, tweeted a photo of himself hanging out with wrestler Mick Foley on the court.
The Celtics center tweeted, "I got to meet Mick Foley after the game. He's the man!"
Foley, of course, had been known by many aliases throughout his professional wrestling career, including Mankind, Cactus Jack and Dude Love. And while it appears he was attending the game simply as himself on Saturday night at Barclays Center, he did feature a hint of Dude Love, sporting what looks to be a purple tie-dye shirt under his brown blazer.
It's an interesting choice of attire for a basketball game, but hey, who are we to question The Hardcore Legend? Plus, we now have confirmation that he's not just a man, but the man.

Where's the call, ref?

Wrong net, bro.
