    With yet another good signing (James Posey) The Celtics appear ready to conquer the East. This is great for the league. The front office has done a nice job constructing this team in 1 off season. The Celtics will be in the Finals....book it!

    I still think the Bulls are the favorites in the East. But Boston is my #2, and not very far behind.

    Boston will be near the top of "biggest disappointment" lists for sure if they don't at least go deep into the playoffs.

    Chemistry remains the question for me. They look good on paper but how will they be on the court?

    It will be fun to watch the Celtics.

    Finals?

    We shall see, last year at this time, people thought the Spurs wouldn't make it out of the second round.

    Boston's 5 best players:
    KG
    Pierce
    Ray Allen
    James Posey
    Kendrick Perkins

    No coach will play this lineup. Their PG sucks, their interior scoring is terrible. There is a huge overlap of skills on the team. Pierce will probably be their best low post scorer, KG will do more distribution in the PG role, their interior defense will be horrid, their big 3 all needs the ball to be effective.
    The Celtics will be the biggest disappointment next year, no question. 2nd round exit.

    Premature. The favorite eight now is probably Chicago. They're a lot younger and a lot deeper than Boston is.

    Boston is old, they have thin roster, and they have no PG. I think they are a top half draw Eastern playoff team, but I also think both DET and CHI are better.

    Rondo is pretty damn good
    House will provide sroing from the point spot off the bench, and Pruiit could help as well
    Any team that loses to that Cavs team I will never put ahead of this Celtics team
    Chicago, who knows
    I personally think they are going to regress next year
    And the Celts arent that thin really, except for maybe a vet backup center

    pistons are done, stop thinking they can compete with Boston.

    bulls? they are talented but have no go to guy and no guy in the frontcourt. Boston have 3 stars and have signed some good shooters. they will win the east.
