Let's make this birthday one to remember.

48 years old (Born on January 13, 1977)

Happy Birthday, James Posey! You're the only guy who could guard anyone from Kobe Bryant to Dirk Nowitzki and still have enough energy left over to celebrate two NBA championships. Your defensive hustle was legendary—opponents probably still wake up in cold sweats remembering your relentless pressure during those epic playoff runs with Miami in 2006 and Boston in 2008.

Here's hoping your birthday is as clutch as your corner three-pointers and as memorable as that iconic Celtics championship parade. May you continue defending cake slices from hungry teammates just like you defended the perimeter: fiercely, tirelessly, and always successfully!
