I agree Van; grew up at the end of the 80's championship era, but loved the old C's as a kid.. The new C's are a pretty solid team as far as fundementals go, although they have occasional vacations as a hot-dog team..

Skip... I dont know if Gay is the right word for the pumping music; I went to a game last season and while I'm not a hip-hop fan, I enjoyed myself, even though they were just playing the wizards...

i also agree with you skip about the character of the league and the quality of play. i agree with david sterns that the league needs an age limit. the quality of play, especially in the eastern conference, is so poor that it is sometimes unbearable to watch.

i love the game though and have always been a huge celts fan. this team should be interesting to watch in the next few seasons as they have really put together a solid group of young players...

While this team is not nearly as exciting as those great Celts teams of the 80's they have kept my interest. They have some good veterans with a nice mix of some good young talent. I think they have a good chance against any team in the East besides Miami.

What a come back last night, just too litle too late.

They looked pretty good, but Mr. Pierce has to give up the ball more often, he can't do it al by himself.

I think they can win the next one, and bring it back home for a WIN !!!!

I saw it as well, thought they might pull it off, but... Pierce is forcing it, he needs to draw the d and pass it away.. They did look pretty good though, I think it was West that was pressing hard, he was playing some great in your face D....

Used hard and put away dirty....

Got that right, they are just to inconsistent. Blow them out one night, and play crappy the next.

One more try to force it to 7 and bring it back home. I think they can do it.

Hope so//

Also heard they may not keep Walker, he does not have a contract with the green. He definately sparked something in this team. KEEP HIM....
