The 2008 Celtics would've crushed the 2008 Spurs in the Finals. Nobody was beating the Celtics that year.
This. Wasn't this Celtics team the best defensive team ever, after the '04 Pistons? I think both teams were holding playoff caliber teams to 60-something points a game. People seem to forget that those champions won with better defense than the Spurs had during those years. We would have gotten to the finals but lost.
