BOSTON — If there’s a big game at TD Garden, chances are you’ll see a New England Patriot or two cheering on the Boston Celtics.
And that goes for new Patriots, too.
Cornerback Stephon Gilmore, who signed a five-year contract with the Pats in early March, was at TD Garden on Wednesday for the C’s huge showdown with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Gilmore went on to speak with CSNNE’s Michael Giardi about a whole host of Patriots topics.

He also weighed in one of the hot topics of the day — New England’s reported interest in Richard Sherman.
Gilmore said it would be amazing if Richard Sherman ended up in NE but in this business, you never know.

And, with this being a basketball game, he also had some compliments for Stephen Curry and Isaiah Thomas.
Gilmore said he's a big Steph Curry fan but also praised IT, marvelling at what he's accomplishing this year.
