Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. F Garnett. and for good measure...F Ray Allen with his crotch elbowing ass.
Why so worried? I'm not. Then again, I'm no Celtics fan. I honestly hope you didn't expect more than a title or two. I mean, the Celtics picked up some talent quick, but at that age......
We had a realistic shot at two titles. Plus I'm the prototypical Boston sports fan. The minute last season's title was won, I was thinking about this season within 10 minutes.
Look for the refs to bend over backwards trying to keep the Celtics alive. The usual manipulation "for the good of the league" will be increased.
I want to see all teams at full health for the playoffs. I'd really love to see a healthy McGrady for Houston as that would significantly increase my confidence level in the Blazers making the second round. For everyone else, it's about beating teams with no excuses and watching entertaining and competitive basketball. I want the Cavs to have more than a speedbump to the finals. Without KG, it's going to be tough for the Celts.
