i dont think we have peaked yet, mainly bc i dont think we have played our best basketball.  we have been inconsistent in different areas thus far in the season.  i we were clicking on all cylindars and have been beating the top teams, then i would say we could have peaked, but that hasnt been the case to date.
I agree with you about "i don't think we have played our best basketlball",and as you said we are not hitting on all cylinders yet.I heard Moe Williams state on NBA.tv in a interview w/GP,C.Webb,he felt they are playing at a high level and seem to be at the top of their game.He also seem to be as angry as the Lakers to beat us.He went on to say if he was fully healed at the time they played us earlier,it would have been a different outcome.From listening to him,i get the impression,he is a little preoccupied with beating us.lol tp for your post.

Impossible to say, i dont know the game well enough to have an answer for that, if anyone knows it would be Greg Pop' he' seems to allways find a great balance of playing hard and resting his team just the right way for the playoffs

From a fan's perspective i dont think we have played our best basketball this season thus far, but i think your question is in more broad terms eg. "are we using to much energy to early in the season" and again as a fan' no! i want us to be dominating, i dont want the bulls single season record, i just want the number one seed, and right now every game counts.

A better question in my eyes would be "in witch game has the  Celtics played closest to perfection?" by that i mean the current core of Celtics. Think Rondo's triple double game with every other starter peak'ing aswell?

Come to think of it' that would be hellah awsome to see what this core 5 could do to any good team when everything just clicks in one game.

We are not peaking - PP who is my mind was actually the best of the big 3 has looked postively pedestrian this year. So I do think this team has room to improve. I actually think Rondo has outplayed Paul for the most part. Despite our record our differential isn't as high as the Cavs. So I would like to see that number get up there..

We wont peak until the bench can play with some consistency. Our starting 5 is playing GREAT basketball right now. All 5 starters are playing within the offense. This brand of team basketball is  thrill to watch. We aren't driven by one man like the Cleveland Lebrons. Our bench plays well at times but they struggle just as much. I think if we had a veteran big man it would put us over the top.
