Blown away with the current Celtics.

[OAITW r.2.0]

Been tied to the Celts since, forever. Became aware during the Russell-Chamberlin Wars of the mid 60's. The 85/86 Celts were the class I grew up with. The 2008 teams was awesome, of course. The current Celtics are the best version yet. Firing on 10 cylinders.

1. This game against the Heat is amazing

The Heat is starting to look tired but showed they are a great team for much if the first half.

But the Celtics are having a breakout game, with all their starters snd bench having great nights respectively. It’s lots of fun to watch such talent and teamwork tonight!

2. Here's the thing.

Porzingus, Tatum, Horford, Brown, White, Holliday can take a night off...and the team don't care.

3. Such a high scoring game but a fantasy disaster

Mostly due to the bench getting so much work.
So are rosters 15 men deep right now? That's what the stat sheet shows me.

6. Best teams have great depth.

Celts are very deep. Best game this season...

4. Peyton Pritchard.

Dude was lost a year ago, wanted to be traded, Now, playing his best BB with this team.

5. Can't put them with the '60s, mid-'80s or '08 team yet.

If they win the championship...then yes.

I'm still partial to the Bird, Parrish, McHale team that battled so often with the Lakers.

I still remember Mchale clothes-lining Rambis in one of those battles.

7. I want 3 titles for the present Celts.

Then they match Byrd/Walton/Parrish/McHale/Johnson/Ainge.

10. Then they'll be there. That mid-'80s team was superb.

[bahboo]

8. and this was with two very bold moves...

firing Udoka as coach after his misbehaving, and trading away Marcus Smart. It has obviously paid off. That being said....they do have to win a banner, to be considered with the other great iterations...

9. Hated the Marcus Smart trade. Believed he was the core sparkplug.

Turns out, he wasn't.
