We are now a quarter of the way into the NBA season and my Boston Celtics are 20-2 and have the best record in the league and Pierce, Allen, and Garnett are unstoppable. What do you think their chances are of winning the championship or going 72-10 or better?

I think the chances of the finals are tremendous.

Playoffs, unless some horrible injury comes up, is inevitable. Look forward to Garnett holding up the trophy this year.

I wasnt around when Bias or Duncan happened but my dad had season tix for them from74-88 and he keeps saying that Bias sent the celtics into a freefall. He propably would have prolonged the big 3's career by 3 years each. Then Reggie Lewis just crippled us. My dad curses Tim Duncan and prays everytime he get on the floor that he breaks his ankle because we lost him. When we made the draft day deal for Ray i was really mad cuz i thought that we lost most of our chips for KG. But when we got him i was so happy because i wanted to experience the glory that has escaped the celtics during my life.

72.5 huh? Pretty good chances I would say.

Especially considering my Wizards only have a 0.7 chance.

The celtics have played the easiest schedule out of anyone so I don't see that they have proved themselves until they play the pistons tonight, first real big test if they win then they are real otherwise we'll see in the long run.

29-3 BABY!! Who'd thought that Big Baby would be doin all this, I knew he was going to be good but damn!! Celts are looking good but Ray Allen is playing like a dog these past couple of games he better get his game together.

I won't get excited about the Celts until they go through Texas and take their first meaningful West Coast trip. That's not a comment against them just what I use as a measuring stick.

The one thing that I don't like hearing is that KG is rejuvenated. Anyone who watches this guy play knows he's like this 24/7/365. He is truly one of the few professionals. Good team, bad team, makes no difference. He's a beast. It also looks as though he's packed on some muscle. The guy is truly amazing.

The big three are huge for the team, but their bench has been stellar when called upon, such as baby shaq, he is just nasty.

I like the thread topic here..

First I'm from Boston so there's a bias. But I haven't watched a C's game in at least 15 years. Mostly because I don't like the way the game/league changed post late-80s, but second I guess because the most storied franchise in it's history was repeatedly a non-factor.

I gave them a few games into this season, but then I have watched nearly in entirety every single game . They are impressive and I'm happy for Pierce to finally have some help. Only time will tell for them...but they have a chance. Those 3 guys have to stay healthy and more importantly their bench has to find a way to become reliable. They're too hot and cold up to now.

I love these Celts...I can remember the days of the old Garden watching Bird play as a kid. I haven't been this excited about basketball since.

Irons: i5 Green Dot
Wedge: 588 53 Degree
Balls: NXT Tour


Havent been on the forum for a while, we've come back down to Earth and now KG's been out. Hope that they rest him until the all-star break to keep him rested. Just took a hard fought loss to the Cav's last night but still the out look is good. It took one of the better teams in the east to play us hard the entire night and they only won by one, and we didnt have KG and Pierce was fighting through the flu so thats not bad.

Have not watched them since the Bird days. Loved the Magic Johnson matchups. Maybe I will have to tune into a game.

    • I don't think anyone will really care.   It's your call.  Just be consistent.
    • I agree, until we are watching the 18th hole in the dark or waiting for the champion to finish and it's been 5+ hours
    • Question for the group. The course I normally play at has 27 holes - 3 9s that they use to for 18 in the various combinations. Is it okay to declare* if I’m playing front or back when I play 9 on this course? I’m figuring I need to declare before I play a shot. *meaning just say to myself that this is the back 9. Curious what people think. Of course, my only holes left are 13 and 17, so I’m going to declare the back 9 for the rest of the year. Probably only one or two more rounds though. 
    • This is my opinion as well. I would love to see the LPGA take the lead on this.    This.
    • I agree in general. The one way in which the viewer will notice the pace of play is just that "it's been an hour and Nelly Korda or Scottie Scheffler have only played four holes." Or if for some reason they show a lot of shots of players just standing around when they could be showing golf shots. But I think Andy Johnson said it most recently/best, playing fast is a skill, too. I would love for pro golfers to play faster. You'd see the players you want to see hit more shots in the same time than they do now. So I don't disagree with the pace of play stuff, and hope they can find ways to do it. Heck, the LPGA should leap at the chance to differentiate itself in this way, IMO. So: I stand by what I said in that the TV viewer really doesn't notice much about pace of play. It's rare when they do. I support increasing the pace of play wholeheartedly. But my top five reasons don't include TV ratings or viewership.
