This team can go anywhere from 49 wins to 75 wins, depending on their health and motivation, because the talent and coaching are already there.

I agree whole heartedly. barring major injuries, I see 65 to 70 wins. the east is weaker and shaq takes up too much space. where's lebron gonna go? kinda of a joke, but this is the most talented team the celtics have had since the 62/63 team with havlicek and siegfreid, ramsey and k.c. jones off the bench. this one could be as good. this 2009/10 celtic team may go down in celtic lore.

65 sounds high. However, I believe it's possible if not probable baring any unforseen tragedy. The celtics were very good against the western conferance last year and the year befor. This year we added size with sheed, daniels and the resigning of bbd. That will match up well against the lakers, spurs, dAllas or whom ever else we play. So I see us again having a good too great record against the west. The eastern conferance had loads of off season moves. I think the top teams got better, the midlevel teams felloff a little and the bottom teams well…their still bottom teams. There is a little more competitiveness in the east that wasn't there befor but restasure there will be teams with a below 500 record in the playoffs. The celtics depth will give them atleast the ammount of wins they had last year and add a hopefully healthy kg and their record should improve. I don't think they will be able to rest down the stretch this year with Cleveland fighting for home court. So all the games all 82 will be played like it's crucial to home court. More wins and I feel if healthy will will win #18.

65 is a lot of wins.. i would put them anywhere btwn 57-62. Not to say that that wont do the job for Eastern Conference Champs.. but i think 65 is going to be very hard considering they have to play orlando, cleveland, La, and san antonio at least twice. I think the C’s have a great chance this year, and are being thrown under the bus a bit by our friends over at ESPN. Sheed will bring it this year, and if he doesnt KG will be in his ear.. how can you not get pumped playin with KG.. i get pumped watching KG pregame.. Nevertheless, if the team stays healthy, it will be a much different story come June. Word up.. GO C’s

i believe the celtics will reach the 60 win plateau there is no dought in my mined our guys are warriors and they didn't have that help last year.beside,they will be motifated especially KG to regain what they lost.i have no dought in there hearts.if you all recall in many games last year they lost leads even me thought they are going to lose and left the game,but they fought backe and win the game so i learned not to dought the celtics and i would advise all the pepole that are jumping in the cleveland wagon not so fast we are still here
