I'd take Malone over Garnett any day.
I agree that as of right now he's not. Which is I said that if KG wins a few rings, and continues his level of play, that he could be #2. Those are very realistic standards.

Marvin Williams is a high character guy. It was a boneheaded foul, but he was trying to catch him and let him down gently. Not always as easy as it sounds though.


yeah im sure he wasnt trying anything on purpose, just didnt go the way he planned. sucks.

Lucky for the Celts they don't have to win a road game at all to win the NBA title. But dam if LeBron goes in there and steals one....Celtics will probably lose the series if that happens.

The Celtics of game 1-6 played nothing like the Celtics today. The Celtics today are playing like the team we saw this whole season. There's no reason they don't get back on track after this series.

Also Celtics have no doubled up on the Hawks. I would love for the final score to be the same.

He could if he wins a few rings and cotinues his high level of play. Right now he's not but I think hes in the top 5.


You could say that about anyone. Shaq could have 3 more rings 3 years from now. Dirk could win 3 Finals MVPs and pass KG.

Yeah but those aren't realistic. KG is in a position to win multiple titles. He also can continue playing the way he is right now because KG isn't as dependent on his athleticism and speed anymore.

uhm,

the Celtics won all 3 games at home in blowouts. They just struggled on the road. Games 1, 2 and 5 they were the old celtics.

Did you catch that flagrant.

Rondo runs right into Marvin Williams instead of going to the basket. Marvin tries to get out of his way, and the Refs call Marvin for a flragrant 2.

Refdiculous.

Now come on guys, we all know this game would be closer if the Hawks were shooting the 47 FT they deserved. Unless they shoot 40+ FT this game is not a true representation of their abilities.

Believe it or not, no. They weren't nearly as aggressive.
