This may seem absurd, but it is theoretically possible for the Boston Celtics to match the amazing 72-10 record of the Chicago Bulls. At 29-3,they are on pace to finish 73-9, which would allow them to surpass the greatest year of one of the greatest teams ever.
Wow, how quickly things can change.
It's too bad that the Knicks can't take notes from the Celtics, another organization that had fallen into the toilet. After the Rick Pitino debacle, Boston found itself overpaying for undertalented players, and with horrible management. Somehow, they found a way to make things better, and it's starting to pay off.
My prediction: this team knows how to win and they want to get a title. If there are no injuries, they will get it. There's nothing scarier than a bunch of 30-somethings with experience, heart and just enough legs to make their last, desperate run to save their collective legacy.

This is the best team in the NBA right now. Garnett is a serious player who wants to win. The East can't hold em, especially since the pistons fell off. The only challenge will be Cleveland and lebron does not have the support.
They are better than the bulls.
The Celtics need to prove they can beat teams from the West before anybody sees them as a title contender. But based on what they have done so far, it is looking real good for them.
The Celtics are back baby! I hated when Rick Pitino was here, he completely messed things up for us for a long time. Garnett is making them better. If their coach does a half way decent job, they can win another championship.
