Why oh why are the Boston Celtics talking trash in the first week of training camp, just why?
Claiming they are the best just because they have their best player fully healthy again.
And why is Paul Pierce even putting himself into the trash talk? The man couldn't win a championship his whole career without Kevin Garnett and he barely lead the Celtics pass the baby Bulls in the first round last year without Garnett.
Pierce has no damn right claiming they are the favorites to win the title this year and claiming his team is better then the *cough* team he loved when he was a kid.
Then we have the coach, a man who praised coach Phil Jackson back when he was a play by play announcer with ABC. Saying his team is much better the Lakers and gives no credit to them as champions.
They haven't proven nothing yet with their elderly team that features aging Garnett, Pierce, Ray Allen and Rasheed Wallace.
They obviously are not going to give the Lakers their credit, which is OK since they are our biggest rivals, but do not go and claim you are this big macho team who is going to roll over everyone after having your first training camp practice.
That just show you are all talk and just too damn cocky.
Don't talk too soon, with two other teams in your league, who knows if you Celtics will be getting the honor of losing to the Lakers, who will be on their way to number 16.
But it's pretty fun having the Celtics talking trash, because it just shows the enemy has us in their head and we are missing with their heads without doing anything.
You just have to love Pierce trying to stir the rivalry more even though there is no way of making it much worse.
Just put your money where your mouth is Celtics and see you at the rematch in June of 2010.
