How sweet would that be to sweep the Celtics as long as their players from 09 are there!

The Celtics have 4 all star players in their lineup and 3 of them are legends.They can make some damage in the first playoff round because it would be their last time playing all together in the playoffs.I won't chose the Celtics over the Knicks for the first round.I have a feeling that the Knicks will be an easier opponent in the first round.

No. Miami would still beat Chicago (assuming Chicago can get passed Indiana).

Finally someone who sees it the way I do. My friends have been telling me I'm nuts but I'd rather face a team that plays no D then a team that plays very good D & has had some epic battles with us already. Everyone feeds into the ESPN hype machine. The Knicks aren't even above .500 & people are talking them possibly making the ECF.

I don't thinks so.

Seriously? Have you been watching the Bulls this year?

We are not losing to Indiana. Unless Rose goes down (God forbid) then the ECF is the same as it was last year. And just like last year, I feel we can take down the Heat. *let the brow beating commence*

I agree, that would be sweet.

 

[JosMin]

I just hope we don't have the same result in the ECF as last year.

well they are 13-3 in their last 16 games...what the knicks really needed was a PG to run their offense(especially when you run a D'antoni offense)..their D isnt great but its not as bad as it was last year because of chandler down low

wow. Winning 13 games in 3 in pretty impressive.

13-3 in their last 16? Yea not true at all. They are 11-5 & the 6 playoff bound teams they faced they are 3-3. People really need to take their Sportscenter glasses off every once and awhile.

Nah.The knicks still suck.I prefer them in the first round than the Celtics big 3 last try to do something in their life.Let the Heat play against them.They will die in the court.

Celtics suck too.But...what i said.

3 legends? You can argue Garnett into the hall maybe...but not a legend. And the other two aren't even close imho.

 

[RamiTheBullsFan]

The Knicks don't suck but they aren't great yet either.

Last month, they had no player who could be a decent PG- now they have 2.

Lin, Davis
Fields, Smith, Walker, Shumpert, Douglas
Anthony, Novak, (Fields), (Walker)
Stoudemire, Jeffries, (Anthony)
Chandler, (Stoudemire)

They have limited front-line depth but are capable of playing small against a lot of teams. Their defense is solid and they have capable offensive players.

I'd rather play BOS than NYK if I'm Chicago. BOS is just about out-of-gas. They are a terrible rebounding team and their legs will be gone by the post-season.

 

[thechosenone]

The Knicks lost the Nets game and the Celtics beat them by 20 for fun.I wouldn't prefer the Celtics big 3 last run for no reason.They are 3 future hall of famers with an all star PG.I AM SURE that in the first round they will die in the court to prove everyone that they can still ball.Against NYK you can win the series only by playing defense.Their offense is very static.Even Butler can own Melo.Their defense isn't something so great too.Shit team with a shit coach.It's big market OK I understand it.They have big names.That is something I can understand too.But I won't compare none of them with the Celtics players and no matter what the media write about them I am not blind.They are a pathetic team.

The Celtics suck too.BUT these players when they decide to play basketball for one last time in their life are very dangerous.We are talking about Garnett one of the greatest PF in the game.Ray Allen the greatest shooter in the game,Paul Pierce and a triple double capable PG.

Of course this is my opinion.I may be wrong.But I have this feeling that the Celtics will be a die hard team in the first round.Second round?An other story.

That's just Skip Bayless doing his job of making hyperbolic statements and sticking with them. Stephen A. Smith is about the only one who doesn't just summarily dismiss the Bulls.
