Celtics dominated the Western confrence in March

[TraceOneInfinite]

I had been a doubter to the Celtics hype all year until this last month.  This team is for real.  Nobody is going to stop them this year, or maybe for the next 3 years, as long as they have the 3 superstars.

The reason I doubted them is because of the futility of the Eastern confrence. I thought the Celtics would beat up on a weak Eastern Confrence all year and that a battle tested Western confrence team would win the finals.

But the Celtics really proved themselves in March...

-ended Rockets 22 game win streak by blowing them out.  They did this IN houston after just playing the night before on the road.

-blew out the Suns just when the team was starting to gell with Shaq.

-Beat the Mavs IN Dallas.

-Beat the Spurs

....and they have done all this soundly.  They dominateed these teams.  Garnett is shooting better from the floor then I've ever seen him shoot.  And even their role players Rondo and BigBaby are playing like All-Stars.  They out rebound, out-hustle, and outdefend all their opponenets and they are the most talented.

the celtics bench is great too

powe, cassell, posey, house, big baby

adding Sam I Am was a great move

Laker fans will always find an excuse for the Celtics being a weak team. Trust me.

yeah man look at how much we dominated the entire west this season

our winning % against the west was probably better than against the east

Word.... I can't believe how deep they are.  It's like they sucked for so many years and got some good draft picks the last few years and now everybody is peakin at the same time.

And Garnett and pierce look hungrier than other superstars around the league.  They are dtermined to prove themselves against the West, they really got up for those games.

i left out tony allen too.


and scalabrini, who was a walking clown the last few years (seriously somefans are so mean to the guy haha)


but anyways, yes KG is hungry and plays at his best against top tier opponents.  Pierce and Allen are also probably just as hungry, and Kendrick Perkins and Rajon Rondo are servicable starters.

I would say Rondo is more than just "serviceable"... did you see the way he did Nash?

Actually they are like the Patriots of basketball the way they dominate. 

And if the Patriots would of played the Giants in a 7 game series like they do in the NBA theres no way the Giants would of came out on top.

I didn't know you were this into ball, homie... Good shit.

But seriously, Celtics are a great regular season success. We know what often happens, though, with those great regular season success teams. Until they prove me wrong and prove that they can win in the playoffs, I still say Detroit>Celtics...PeACe

You always say that man.. act like your surprised when I talke about ball.  I play regularly and when I work at the hospital its always at night and all the patients are asleep so I catch the big games and highlights.  I saw the Celts play the Rockets, Celts vs. Suns, and Celts vs. Mavs this month....
so I have been doin my homework.

Mark my words homie... they are takin it this year.... my team is the Suns.... and I love the Western confrence, so I was real dissapointed when the Celts walked all over the confrence in March.

Your team is the Suns? Why?...And what do I always say? Trust me, man. Celtics are not a hard team to expose. saying Big Baby and Rondo are playing like all-stars is also an extreme exaggeration. We will have to wait and see, though

-the Suns cause Stoudamires a Muslim, Nash is a whiteboy, and Barbosa is fast, and I Kansas City doesn't have a team so I got into the Suns when they picked up Nash.  They were the most exciting team.

-you always say that your surprised when I talk about ball.

And Rondo and BigBaby have  been playing at a high level lately.  They don't make mistakes and mix well with the main 3.  It's not like the 06 Lakers where Bryant and Odom were good and everyone else looked out of place. 
The celtics don't lose a step with their role and bench players.

-I feel ya, but the Suns almost started a trend which woulda' been the death of basketball (high scoring and no defense with little-to-no offensive sets)

-Damn...my bad. Maybe it's because you rarely come into this section.

-Rondo and Big Baby D are good for some youngsters, don't get me wrong. But to say they're performing like all-stars is a stretch. I don't think anyone is out of place on the Celtics, but the team IS lacking depth...Rondo is too young and inexperienced to be a starting point guard on a championship squad, while Cassell is too old. Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, and Keving Garnett are great players, but none of them have any real experience in big games...they're also on their last legs. Lets not forget, Kendrick Perkins is far from a starting caliber center. The playoffs will be a big test for the Celtics. Remember, the Mavs looked untouchable in the regular season last year, but were easily exposed when the playoffs rolled along. I'd fear the same if I were a Celtic fan...PeACe

I hope your right...

...btw... Garnett has played in big games, I think he's  been deep in the playoffs before... and Pierce went to a championship once didn't he?  back when they had walker?

[The Watcher]
