BLOCKBUSTER TRADE: Garnett, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce in One Uniform

The combination of such superstars have a great contribution to the team. Finally, the raining MVP Kevin Garnett have joined forces with Ray Allen and Paul Pierce. Based from my expectations, I think Boston Celtics will be able to enter the playoffs so far this season if I'm not mistaken. Now that 3 great superstars are in the court with the same uniform we will see the first time ever teamwork of the said superstars.Do you believe that this will be their advantage in winning the championship?

Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, and Ray Allen are great superstars. They have made big contributions to their own teams. They are the heart and soul of their teams. And now that they are in one team, who knwos who will be the leader of the celtics. The Boston Celtics have made the best trade in the NBA this year. And KG, Pierce and Allen may be able to bring the Celtics their 17th Championship banner, but we have to consider the age of these superstars. Paul Pierce and Ray Allen have already been in the league earlier than KG, and they may not be able to perform the way they did when they were that young. Another consideration is that the Celtics have traded almost half of its players to acquire these big superstars.

Those are three big names but Ray Allen is old and Pierce is up there in age as well so they may have problems staying healthy. They also got rid of most of their team and some draft picks so they will need to replace the players they lost. It looks good on paper but I do not think they will make the finals this year. They may make the playoffs but no championship this year as they need to find good role players. I think the three of them will score pretty evenly.

I think this trade seriously makes the Celtics a contender for the championship. If they became playoff contenders with the acquisition of Ray Allen, then this trade for KG has made them championship contenders.. They basically become a pick your poison team for opponents.. Who do you guard? Pierce? Allen? or Garnett?

Yea, now all they have to do is get some role players since they traded half the team to get KG.

This would be a challenge for the coaching staff as to who would be the captain, who would be given more plays, and I think "Doc" Rivers will have a long season to prepare for.

Now this is a all-star team, all three players are great. I see Boston making it far into the playoffs, and Kg's dream has a more than likely chance of paying off. For the scoring department its tough to say, both kg and Pierce are great players. In my opinion it's still Pierce's team.

I think Paul Pierce would still lead this team in their scoring department, their defenses would be strengthen with Kevin Garnett around and Ray Allen will provide additional points but he would only be second to Pierce. Is this the realization of Garnett's dream? not yet... they still need time. I think they could go for the champsionship crown next season. This season I predict they would only go to the Eastern Conference finals. This team needs a superstar pointguard in order to go for the Championship ring as World Champion.

I think that Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett will be the top scorers for this team. Who will score more? I don't know...both of them are prolific scorers. It's good to see that the Celtics became aggressive this year acquiring All-Star players. With the New England Patriots and Boston Red Sox always in hunt for the championships every year, this trade made the Celtics important again in the New England sports scene. Also, I just read last night that the team is also trying/convincing/negotiating with Reggie Miller to come to town and join the Big Three. If ever, that will really make an All-Star team and anything but the playoffs (or the Finals) will be a big disappointment. With this set of players, I say that the team will be contenders for 2-3 years but after that, I don't know. They need to develop younger players for the future.

This Boston Celtics team will surely be a playoff contender. They may struggle at the start of the season just like the Chicago Bulls last season but I'm pretty sure they'll make it in the postseason. The only question is, how far will they go? This team is practically a 3-man team. I think the big three will average atleast 20ppg since I think they'l all login more or less 40 mins. a game. It's true they signed House and Pollard but those guys are not enough. They need to get a better point guard sooner or later because the only way this team get go very far is if they have a good point guard that can set and make the plays for them. All in all, I'm just excited to see how this team will perform in the season.
