Boston Celtics thread

Boston Celtics fans gather here!

Big year comin' up for one of the most successful franchises in NBA history.

As you know, capped off the acquisition of Ray Allen with that of Kevin Garnett from the Timberwolves. I'm salivating at the prospect of these 2 joining forces with Paul Pierce. Now we just need a decent centre (not a 6 foot 11 dopey white boy) and we can probably challenge for the title althoug Garnett will certainly have a greater presence in defense guarding the baseline.

Celtics of 07/08 = Mavericks of 03/04

All that's missing is 4 point jacker, Fatoine Walker. Ray Ray should be a good substitute...

A personalised jersey? At least we know you're not jumping on the bandwagon like 98% of the casual NBA Fans are.

(Assuming you didn't get that before the KG trade, of course...)

I got my Pierce jersey back in March but no one will believe me now :lol:

Yeah, well before the trade. Really only got back into the basketball about 3 years ago. I was mad keen for it as a teenager.

Anyhow was on ebay looking for a Larry Bird jersey and low and behold, theres a jersey with my surname on it! Mind you I'd prefer it had #80 on it but c'mon.... 23 is probably the most famous number in all sports!

Its actually a youth XL size so it JUST fits me but for $5 I couldn't care less!

Oh and casual NBA fans would be the kids in the playground who were all Bulls fans in 90-93. I remember the wheels falling off the bandwagon the first time Jordan retired!

1 day too Minnesota vs Boston should be good be interresting too see how Al Jefferson goes against KG

 

[LESStar58]

f**k em! You've actually been to see the Celtics play!

 

[LESStar58]

Only undefeated team in the NBA with a 5-0 record.

Next up, the Heat in Boston on Friday. KG vs Shaq is gonna be classic!

 

[Choppies]

You should do Miami easy. Shaq is no where near as good as he was 2 years ago (Gee thats saying something).
KG is gonna own him something bad!

 

[McLovin]

Take KG away from that team and they're borderline playoff hopefuls...

 

[Panthers_God]

Who will be the first team to beat the celtics??


..when do they play utah???

 

[LESStar58]

7 and zero!

Just beat the Nets for the 2nd time in 3 days

Well, it wasn't easy but we are now 8-0.

92-91 on Friday night! :?

Still work to be done, obviously!

 

[McLovin]

I'm tipping the first Celtics loss will come at the hands of the Lakers on Saturday...

 

[El Coconuto]

I'm tipping tomorrow, against the Magic :sarcasm: ;-)

 

[McLovin]

hehe...they're gonna be tough all year by the looks of things. Barring injuries and suspensions, they're definitely on par with the 72 win Bulls team...

 

[Panthers_God]

The streak could end today, Boston down by 17 at the Half

 

[McLovin]

They've come back into it. Just too many guns...

 

[El Coconuto]

I'm tipping tomorrow, against the Magic :sarcasm: ;-)

Orlando Magic 104 bt Boston Celtics 102! Yeyar!
