The Pistons will be ready for the C's but they are just not that good anymore. A.I. has all but destroyed team chemistry and they do not look like they enjoy playing anymore. The Pistons will put up a fight but fold like a cheap tent as soon as the C's apply any pressure.

Kevin McHale has his bunch of Wolves playing excellent basketball. They have been the hottest teams since Jan. 1. I look for them to upset the Lakers on the backs of Al Jefferson and Kevin Love who were BOTH snubbed for the All Star Weekend festivities.

Mo Williams went over 40 and Bron the Don had a triple double against the Kings earlier in the week. Look for much of the same against the injured, battered and bruised Clippers.

This is the marquee match up of the weekend. These teams are 1 and 2 in the Southwest division and played a bitter 7 game series last season in round 2 of the playoffs. Look for home court to help the Spurs overcome what should be another monster effort from Chris Paul.

The Blazers are red hot and the Jazz are hurt. Deron Williams vs. Brandon Roy should be interesting to watch especially if both players are on. Look for Portland to tough it out and come out victorious.

Stu Parker	wow. after reading this blog....You are spot on. I do not deny Kevin Garnett's ability as a player but HATE the BS stuff he does...All negative crap.
	This is a very unfair article. Garnett is an Olympic Gold Medalist, an MVP, an ALL STAR MVP, an ALL NBA member and an NBA Champion... you know how many current players can say that? 2 others (Shaq & Kobe) and they are all considered among the best players at their respected positions in the HISTORY of basketball. The same should be said for K.G.

Ra	This is blasphemy. I hope a Celtics fan did not write this article.
KWAPT	How old is that clip of KG? C'mon..of course that was a punk move, but what was that, 10 years ago? It's simple: KG is a fierce competitor who uses intimiadation and mental toughness to strike fear in the heart of his opponents. If he is on your team, you LOVE him. If he is not, you may loathe him. But either way, he is a great player. You cannot deny that.
Alex	Wow, now we are going to call an Olympic Gold Medalist, an MVP, an ALL STAR MVP, an ALL NBA member, an NBA Champion, a player that has more 20-10-5 seasons than Larry Bird, Defender of the Year (2008 and most likely, this year) overrated? Hmm, right now I'm kind of smelling a bit of jealousy mixed with stupidity in this article.
Tweedster	This blog is poorly written, scattered and incoherent. Thankfully, someone else already tackled the inconsistencies and leaps of logic. Check it out hear: http://celticshub.com/2009/10/22/did-you-hear-kg-is-overrated/
Tweedster	Some actual statistics, and not just conjecture and strange conclusions based on the number of 'chips KG has. http://www.celticstown.com/is-kevin-garnett-clutch.html
SP	ron campbell must love the Lakers. Or the Cav's. Or the Magic. but he doesn't know @$@@ about basketball!
Ed The Sports Fan	I'm sorry, there's no way in life Allen Iverson isn't in the starting 5, especially ahead of Nash. Give a damn about MVP's, Iverson's done more with much much MUCH less and totally revolutionized the game. Other than that, I think your decade team is cool. -Ed.
