Carter shots selection this year may have been the most stupid I've ever seen ... the guy bricks 5-6 fadeaways/long jumpers in a row , what's he's doing next ? keep taking the exact same shots instead of attacking the rim
If the Celtics pull out a championship THIS year, I think it will be more impressive than 2 years ago. Mainly because of their seeding and their regular season. Because of their seed....they will have gone through the Cavs, the Magic...and if they win the title, more than likely the Lakers. Thats the #1, #2, and #3 teams in the league this year.

Thats the #1, #2, and #3 teams in the league this year.i think the celtics have the personnel to play even better defense than they did 2 years agothe big 3 are 99% as good as they were back in '08 and Rondo and Perkins are far improved. plus Rasheed fills in a void that big man that Leon Powe left.
Here are the main differences I see between now and 2 years agoBoston- Rondo is a much better player , his all around effort is just incredible during these playoffs- Perkins has probably become the best 1 on 1 post up defender in the league..- The BIG 3 is clearly not as good as it was.- their bench is weaker , yes Big Baby is a serviceable player , T. Allen brought some D intensity but Sheed is very up and down and they lack the D and veteran play of a Posey and PJ Brown , as well as House shootingLakers - Pierce won't be defended by Radmanovic or Walton but by Artest , that's quite a difference lol- Bynum obviously ... he will have to stay on the floor because Pau vs KG and Drew vs Pekins are much more favorable matchups than LO vs KG and Perk vs Gasol imo- Kobe has developed a great post up game and both Allen won't be able to defend it one on one
Pierce did a pretty good job on Kobe but it wasn't 1 on 1 D , Celtics zoned him up and forced others Lakers to score .. what they oviously did not ... plus there was Posey on Kobe a lot aswell you cannot put Pierce on Kobe now , if you do it , Artest will bully Ray in the post
