I think garnett should be captain really, he plays with pure heart, he has so much confidence, last year he was the only person who deserved to win the championship, after like 14 years of hard work he finally found his ring.
Garnet is the player in the business. Here in Minnesota that was first time get good also last time we had one celtics good luck take the advantage of big man.
Garnett celebrated like a TRUE champion. . . its how someone that's meant/destined to win the ring is supposed to celebrate. its tears of hard work, sacrifice, etc. Lakers would've gone arrogant like it belonged to them. Kobe still has much to do before deserving this like Garnett, Pierce, and Allen did. They hurted their ENTIRE and they finally got a chance, and like a true TEAM, they put their hearts on the court when the finals started and said i bet THIS!
People are sleeping on one of the best up and coming P.G's Rajon Rondo outta Kentucky. They should have him taking pictures with the trio. You'll see when the season starts how much of a difference he gonna make for this team this year
TRIPLE THREAT Pierce Allen Garnett AMAZING, gonna be a POWERHOUSE this year, and around the core 3 superstars will be a SPECIAL team for the next 3 or 4 years.
im glad all you are talkin smack about the celtics....WE'RE GOIN ALL THE WAY. everyone keep hatin', we feed off it. KEVIN GARNETT is a BEAST. pierce is one of the best lane drivers, and allen barely misses 3's. keep hatin everyone, it only fuels us...
hey im from minnesota KG has fuckin brought the wolves to the playoffs in the west coast by himself!!! imagine when he has two other all stars on his team! hes got this shit in the bag
He doesn't play dirty. Crazily, yes, but dirty... that's a stretch. Sometime his behavior goes overboard with some of his antics but it's not like he'll kick a guy in his nuts while he's down or punch a guy in his back when the refs aren't looking. He just has so much passion that he becomes overwhelmed sometimes.
a bench they can depend on and takeover whenever one of them isn't on the floor or even all 3 aren't if possible. say if they lose 1 of them durin' regular season due to injury "knock on wood", it's gonna take a big toll on the team status and the way they play. they made big moves but either to get some u lose some or many and that's exactly what they did.
That's only because you play teams from the opposite conference twice during the season. A win in the west is tougher and it matters more than it would in the East. We already know that whoever wins the championship, it will be a team from the west.
This is the "Apex Cinderella Story" team. Unlike the Lakers when they had Kobe, Shaq, GP and the Mailman, these guys actually WANT to play with each other. Celtics in '08!!
True. They haven't even faced any of the Western Conference giants and already people are saying they're gonna win the Finals. The only good person on there is KG. Allen can shoot and that's it, and if every shitty player in the NBA puts in an effort, they will play as good as Paul Pierce.
they picked up James Posey and Eddie House and Pollard, those are 3 proven bench guys they added to their 6th man Tony Allen and Scalabrine. Betta than you think.
Part of that is correct to me but im not saying ur wrong, but i just dont agree. It's the Rockets year this year. They got Steve Francis back ( im not saying hes good, but hes better then Rafer)and this new guy called Scola from Argentina I think.(6'8" or 6'9" i forgot but he can shoot
Do you guys think for this season...are we gonna have the same Celtics players? Is this family gonna be destroyed?? Was it their last chance at winning a second title that they blew up...? After their loss to the Lakers last season...they were talking in interviews about the fact that maybe it was their last time playing together! I HOPE they get another shot at it together!!
Please lakers fans need to shut up they have Kobe thats it no doubt his greatness but the celtics have a great team how is anyone going to compete agianst that great defense, unselfishness, leaders and that endevour and prowess to win
After the Celdicks lose tonight, do you think Garnett will be proudly stating "Winning is the only option." in the post-game press conference or will he be muttering it in between sobs. Celtic fan should be frightened for tonight's game. Go Cavs!
Im gonna be honest, KG is my favorite player in the NBA currently. I HATE Ray Allen and Paul Pierce WHEN THEY"RE ON THE COURT. They're sittin hear talkin about being un-selfish players? Un-selfish my ass. It's hard to be THAT good and not be selfish. Don't get me wrong these are 3 of the best players in the NBA currently, I just don't like Pierce and Allen. Now outside of basketball, these guys seem pretty awesome. I've got nothing against these guys personally.
The winning streak might be over, but we are still pushin it to da limit. Even if the Lakers, the team of has beens make it, we will still beat LA. Boston 4 Lyfe. Go Celtics
Are you serious? It rarely happens lately but people do sneaky crap, like when Dahntay Jones tripped Kobe in the Conference Finals. It's not improbable.
@FrostJeremin I would love to see it happen, C's all the way, but i doubt it, the league is filled with too many 3's combo for this to be truly outstanding. If this group should have that spot, i belive Duncan, Parker and Ginobilli should aswell, even though im not much of a spurs fan ;)
im a laker fan and i know what ur thinking why am i here????you know what im here to watch you celtic fans to keep on laughing cuz lakers taking it all 2009 champs so keep on laughing cuz this year aint a joke
in the east the best teams are the pistons,heat,bulls,toronto,NJ,and now the celtics. if these guys come together play like a team they can wina lot of games. to me the best team in the nba right is the spurs but i dont think they will it this year. i really think the suns are gonna come together and make it to the nba finals, against the anyone of the eastern teams i named above(maybe not toronto or NJ).
@FrostJeremin Poorly don't, because they haven't got enough rings. I don't know what idiot thing is that. They deserved to be in the Hall Of Fame. They made the finals this year too, when Ray Allen is 34 (35 in July) Kevin Garnett is 34 too and btw Paul Pierce is 32... The average old is 33... double 3, and they are the big three, how epic. Btw, hope Rondo can keep up playing this level or increase it, cuz he will a hall of famer if he could.
Its just a sensitive subject cause the same thing happened to my brother. He got permanently injured and he takes it out on everybody. Didnt mean to come off so strong, ite?
u r so wrong. Until the 21st century, boston has had bad sports years for the redsox, patriots, and the celtics (90's only). Still, the stadiums always sell out and the fans stick there forever.
translation for you: Everything i see you always hating on my ?? K.G. What you got against him homeboy dont get mad because he at where you probably want to be.
i'm happy for the Celtics, i'm looking 4ward to see them do well this season. however they're practically the whole team (ray allen, KG, paul pierce) and that's gonna be their downfall. even though celtics have thoze 3 scoring machines, they still need a back-up.
Please. The Lakers are barely strong enough? That's because in the West you actually have to earn your spot in the playoffs. The only reason the Celtics have the best record is because they always play the shit that is the Eastern Conference. The West is stronger, therefore the Western Conference Champion will be the NBA Champion.
