NBA Basketball: Big Three, Cs silence critics

The Boston Celtics' championship in 2008 surpassed expectation. The same can be said for their 2008-2009 bid for the title. Despite their obvious talent, any team winning back-to-back trophies is rare, but why does that lead everyone to cast doubt over this team?

Of all of the opinions I've heard, the most prominent has been that once a team wins, they don't want it as much. Anyone who watched the ring ceremony on opening night in Boston knows that couldn't be further from the truth.

Paul Pierce spent many seasons with the Celtics surrounded by mediocre teammates and coaches. The fans could feel his frustration. The team was a revolving door for players on the decline that Danny Ainge hoped would give the team that push they needed, with few notable results besides the record for games lost in a row. Season after season, the Celtics were looking for the light at the end of the tunnel that never seemed to come.

Enter Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen. Suddenly the team had legitimate talent, and Pierce had the chance he waited for. After being around Celtics greats for years, hearing their stories of triumph, he knew it was time for him to get his own ring to talk about. The season that followed speaks for itself.

Watching Pierce thank the fans on opening night, emotional and excited, was something I will always remember, and I'm sure many Celtics fans will agree. He wanted the fans to share in what had happened. While some may have jumped on the bandwagon once the team started winning, there remained those fans who were there through it all. The fans who stuck by a floundering team. There was nothing artificial about his desire to share his success with the people who stuck by him.

No team can claim to have more passion than the Celtics. Pierce is obvious - he won an ever elusive title - but he wants more. Then there is Kevin Garnett. At the time of the Garnett acquisition, radio hosts and fans talked about the intensity he brings to every game with no idea what it would be like his first night in Boston as the lights went down at the Garden only to be broken by a screaming Garnett. He wanted it then, and he wants it now. Obviously, wanting it isn't all that comes into play, but luckily, these guys have the team to back it up. Ray Allen is getting up in years, along with the other two members of the Big Three, but that is not stopping him from 16.6 points per game. Rajon Rondo and Kendrick Perkins round out the solid starting five, with Rondo leading the team in assists and Perkins attacking the boards night after night.

It doesn't stop there. One of the most impressive aspects of the team is its bench, with players such as Leon Powe and Eddie House contributing in every way they can. They might not be your average household names, but put them on the floor together, and their chemistry makes them champions.

Doubts have been cast and predictions made, but at the end of the day, what is on paper doesn't matter. It didn't matter when the Celtics were substantial underdogs to the Lakers last season, and it doesn't matter now. The Celtics got their taste of glory last season, and they're still hungry.

Lets GO CELTICS!!!
BEAT LA!!!
