Celtics are OVERRATED

[UNIT]

preseason buddy... pacers where 4-0 but u didnt see me saying "we are the title favourites"

[IlovePPierce]

LOL, everyone forgot about the 40 point no-contest game a couple of days ago.  Oh by the way Arenas is shooting like 22% so far this year.  Maybe EJ better cut him.

lol

[Jason Rubin]

its a good thing that the preseason counts.

...wait, it doesnt?

who cares what happens in the preseason, you dont know what players are working on. veterans like kg/ray/pp go through the motions in preseaosn to get in shape and dont go all out because they dont want to risk injury.

Dude, they played the whole game.  What more do you need?  Sure, it was a game to test things out.  But that was their first real test and they failed miserably.

OK, you cna have the knicks, ill take the celtics.

whoseever team wins more games this season, the other guy paypals $100

deal?

I'm not a Knicks fan.  I could care less how they do.  In fact, they probably won't make the playoffs.  That doesn't change the fact that the kicked the Celts' *****.

yeah, youre right, they lost by 7 in a preseason game in which their would be starting center did not play, and their bench combined for 14pts. better call this whole thing off danny ainge, its lookin like its not going to work.

Oh, since their starting center is so amazing that he'd wipe the floor with Eddy Curry.  Try again.

[IlovePPierce]

He isn't amazing but he is beter then Scale, who played alot of C for the Cs.  But come on man it's preseason.  If this was the reguler season it would be disscussable.  But c'mon.

ps.  still haven't heard a word about the 40 point blow out win.

Dude, that game was like a true preseason game.  This game was played out more like a regular season game.

Notice how many minutes all of those bench players on both teams got?  Seriously, find a better argument, man.

[legenderypete]

celtics are overrated because they have no bench, you need depth to win championships, you cant just rely on a few superstars.

Yeah, I looked in the mirror and saw a hot stud.  By the way, your comebacks could use some work.  Your counterargument was already covered above buddy.  Try again.

Pete, where have you bene this whole time? lol.

[MoGrady]

lol, Ilovpeirce. I think you should start locking some these threads (like mine especially). All the same ***.

"Celtics this, Celtics that". God people *** off. Raptors rule

i don't see how 1 or even multiple preseason losses with the big three playing significant minutes makes them a bit overrated, people need to realize the harsh reality that they will be a force in the east

Because they're trying and playing hard like they would in the regular season.  I'm not talking about early preseason games, I'm talking about late ones.  You need to realize that what they're doing now is what you're going to see in about a week.

[IlovePPierce]

And what will you say, if they kill the cavs?  It won't count for some reason or another, I'm sure.

there you are very very wrong, the intensity level is so much different in the regular season then preseason, the only players playing with their intensity at its peak are players playing for their jobs

I'm not wrong.  The proof is in their stats.  The bench didn't play much in the Knicks game and one of the Big Three put up big numbers.  Look at it again closely.  You'll see that I'm right or you'll have to admit that you're blind.
