The Celtics seem to be for real this year. The Pistons found out by a home loss that this new look Boston team is no joke.

They lead the league in defense and hold the best record (at the time of this post) at 29-3.

How many games do you think this Boston team will win?

I don't care if they win 70 regular season games as long as they don't win more than 11 in the post season

67. 2 honest losses, 5 bad games, 5 losses due to injury.

i think they will win close to 65 games. However, the big question should be: what do you think about a seven game series between Pistons and Celtics?

I think the Pistons can win it as long as they continue to develope the young guys and do not make any of the earlier series any longer than they have to be.

The Celtics will hit the wall at some point and start comming back to earth but they should still be comfortably in the 60's when its over.

What is down to earth with this Celtics team? They win with defense, and as long as they keep at it they'll keep winning barring any injuries. I say between 65 and 70.

I say 66-16. Their bench is better than I thought. Big Baby has thrived under Pollard's tutelage.

Pollard. What a space cadet.
