So is this the year that the Celtics return to glory with KG, Pierce and Ray Allen?
Nah, I say they'll get waxed by the Spurzzz in the finals |

so this year starts Year 1 of the danny ainge's quick patch "3 year plan". hopefully ainge has some insight to build some building blocks for after 3 years during the stretch, because after Year 3, Boston is going to be worse than 2 years ago.
1 interesting team i am going to be looking at closely are the Charlotte Bobcats. they made a gutsy signing during the offsesason, picking up Richardson to fill their starting 5. a starting 5 of felton-richardon-wallace-okafor-brezac looks promising. i guess we'll see what direction charlotte goes, especially in a very different Southeast division this year. This year's Southeast is going to be a lot different than last year. Atlanta now has acie law and al horford to help out josh smith and joe johnson, miami being "1 year older", and picking up smush parker and penny hardaway to "help their depth in the bench", orlando has rashard lewis and adonal foyle, and washington still not taking advantage of free agency. |

Charlotte will def. be interesting, but it seems to be that Okafor breaks every year and I'm not sold on Morrison.
Raptors still haven't picked up anyone to solve the deficiency in defending the paint and rebounding. Frustrating. To be fair there wasn't anyone that good available not overpriced.
Atlantic is going to be entertaining to watch. |

Actually besides Lance's annoyance, I don't mind the Celtics. I'll be interested in watching them this year. Always liked Ray Allen since he's on my fantasy teams year in and year out. KG is a beast and will be more dominating with a supporting cast. Pierce will shoot better and have more assists. They just have absolutely no bench. They signed a couple of fringe guys but need to hook a couple more.
There is a couple of guys who I think will be superstars soon but I'll keep that a secret for awhile.
Grumpy Marion should be quiet and enjoy the ride. |

I rate Rondo highly. His stats should go up nicely this year. |

brilliant commentary:rolleyes:
way to reinforce Rockabye's evaluation of your "allegiances"
Felton keeps getting better and better, i expect he'll be in the top five in assists this season. though the team is still very young, they could grow a lot this season. maybe not playoff caliber yet, but the old guard can't hold on forever. I'm with eviltree on Morrison. (at least they didn't waste the pick on Redick):p |

| It's just a preseason game, but Celtics looked improved as advertised, while the Knicks looked like the same ol' Knicks |
