They may be the most storied NBA franchise, but you have to remember I wasn't until 1992 and probably didn't put down my Barbie dolls till the year 2000 to even pay any attention to the NBA.

I'd tell you to shut up but I don't want you to go IMing me.
Then you have T-shirts or shirts that you received as a gift or you bought when you were drunk or in the mood to just buy something. Those are the Carl Pavano shirts. -Bill Simmons
Second, I'd slap NYGF because he just seems to have it coming for him. I swear man you wouldn't last 5 minutes in California before you got your ass kicked. So I'd be doing him a service too. -hot corner gurl

I agree you try to improve, but this is just ridiculous. By that logic, every team is a story. And to an extent they are. But a true story is the NY Giants this past year, or the Rockies, or if the freaking Rays win a WS. This is just a team of great players doing what they SHOULD be able to do.

Sports don't work out well for me.

No wonder you're so negative, Nancy. Hey, they're starting anew, sort of. Cheer up, maybe they'll win 30 games.

Should be able to do? Didn't work that way with Garnett, Spree, and Cassell. And didn't work that with with Ray Allen, Sam Cassell, and GRob. Wait, Cassell is everywhere.
Nevermind. Yeah, it should work, the space alien isn't a starter for Boston.

Lets be fair, KG/Spree/Cassell and Allen/Cassell/GRob is not quite the same as KG/Allen/Pierce.
In fact, out of those 7 players, KG, Allen, and Pierce are the three best. The team is just loaded. And to have vets like Eddie House and James Posey (and cassell) off the bench, they SHOULD win a championship.

Wouldn't count on it. They'll draft freakin' Donte Greene and be set back another 6 years when he can't figure out defense, interior offense, or CONSISTENCY!
