Warren2ThaG Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Bigger threat to Boston rather then Cleveland or Orlando? I'm leaning towards yes. But who knows by the end of the year and if all teams are healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sun Tzu Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 I'm leaning towards a yes as well, but I'd say the Magic are the biggest threat to the Celtics (in the East) then followed by the Hawks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 It depends on how we play. Some games we'll dominate good teams and other games we'll get dominated. Were just so inconsistent it's not even funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were just so inconsistent it's not even funny. Funny, you just described the Blazers too. I'm watching these games we should be winning...And we're getting killed. Then other nights, we'll look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Definitely more than the Cavaliers IMO, not more than the Magic though. The Magic have gotten a taste and are gonna be hungry, and while the Hawks might also be hungry to win they are still pretty inexperienced in the playoffs. Though the Hawks have pushed the Celtics to the limit before, I would still consider the Celtics the favourites, but the Hawks are still a serious threat to any team they play.

crabbylion Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 I think the Hawks are a threat because I think fly under the radar more effectively than the Cavs, Celtics, or Magic. Of, course the true test will come at the end when injuries and post season experience come in to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 The Celtics will be the most dangerous team come playoff time, and the Magic have good experience after last seasons run. As far as the Cavs go, I think Atlanta is a bigger threat than them, they have far more talent imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then other nights, we'll look great.Good to see I'm not the only one watching these type of games. We can beat the Celtics but lose the Detroit? It makes no sense because the Celtics are 5x better then the Pistons. It's almost like Joe Johnson rolls some dice each night and depending on what he gets will depict how he plays. I hate it.

Owner Real Deal Posted December 3, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Consistency is key, as mentioned...and it counts most in the playoffs. Atlanta has to fix those problems, and I really do believe it starts with Joe Johnson. Smith has taken the franchise and put it on his back some nights, and Atlanta fans have to cross their fingers that he'll be able to do that in the real spotlight, unless they are banking that Johnson will show his face every night in the playoffs. Plus, you're getting solid bench play, especially from Crawford, who is a strong candidate for sixth man of the year. That makes Atlanta more dangerous than the Cavaliers, who really don't match up too well with the Celtics in the first place. With Hickson getting a few starts, Varejao being on and off, and Ilgauskas still trying to figure out how many games he'll have to play the four for longer than 15 minutes, I think Boston can take advantage of that mess with Garnett and Sheed, and that automatically spells trouble for Cleveland.

Kobe24 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 I think Crawford was a huge pickup because last year they would have trouble scoring at some points but hes such a huge spark off the bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobb Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Same as the Suns, lol.Haha, it seems to describe a lot of teams in the league now. I just love how we come and totally destroy Toronto last night. Now I don't want to jinx anything before tomorrow's game but I wouldn't be that surprised if we struggled a little against the Knicks. It happened last time we played them. Hopefully I'm totally wrong and we can come out and kill them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
