Wow, they are just as dangerous as everyone thought they would be. They are definitely not overrated, not by a long shot. I don't want to say Kevin Garnett is the greatest, but that is certainly one lethal team there. The Pistons would have been lethal if Grant Hill and Allan Houston stayed together.
I definitely think they are going to the conference finals, at least.

I must admit they are looking very good right now almost unstoppable. I think they would give any Western team a run for their money. I definitely believe they could play with the best teams in the NBA and be competitive. I believe right now no one can see their weakness. You double KG and you have two excellent 3-pt shooters outside who are open, you defend the perimeter too tight and you leave your post extremely weak especially against KG. You also have a very good slasher in Paul Pierce, he will command a double team whenever he slashes in and once he does, he will have a strong inside and outside players to pass to.
I think as of now, everyone is waiting for the celtics to lose a game so they can find out what their weakness are.And once they do i think it would get a lot tougher for them. Not to mention they have not played against some of the better teams yet. I don't think they have been challenged yet.

No they are not unstoppable, during a pre season game the knicks beat the celtics. I was watching that game, boston went all out using starters diving for the ball fighting each basket like it was a finals match. In the end the knicks were able to beat the celtics. They are a really good team but they are not unstoppable. Right now in the NBA there are a lot of good teams that can contend with the celtics. Not saying celtics is not a powerhouse because they are. Just saying that they are not unstoppable.

Boston has not played anyone of importance yet. They have look good against the struggling Wizards, a tired Nuggets team, and a couple other match-ups. I would like to see them keep up this run as long as possible because I believe that Garnett and Allen deserve to win for once. But, we need more time to see them in action to know whether they are unstoppable. NBA Championships are determined in November.

i find boston is almost unfair. i mean yeah i sound like a fan of another team and i don't want boston to own my team but cmon, garnett pierce allen and posey? That just ain't fair. Some teams dont even have a real star. This team has 3.

They're dangerous but not unstoppable... Though it is pretty hard to imagine what team would be able to stop them... Even against mediocre teams the margin between the scores show their strength... With Garnett their def ain't so bad either...

il still go for san antonio spurs... They're totally an offense team... and Coach Doc Rivers cannot match the experience of Popovich... I expect boston to be good in the season but not playoffs.. Everything will be tougher.... So bye... bye... boston

injuries can stop any team, but barring from that they're legit especially if all their role players step up.
I don't know what you talking about with hill and houston making the pistons lethal, hill always gets injured and houston is overrated

The Nets would agree. So does Kenny Smith

They are looking very good this year. Maybe another championship coming to the New England Area. It brings a tear to my eye.
