Are the Phoenix Suns this bad on the back side of back to backs or are the Celtics that good and have they finally turned the corner and returned to the team they were before hitting the mid season wall.
Personally, I think the C's are that good and that the C's are about to go on an unbelievable roll. Watch for the C's to go 20 of the next 22 or so.
And the reason is Rajon Rondo. As he comes into his own and he starts to realize that he can dominate the man he is against and suddenly, as the season goes on, turns the Celtics more into the Fantastic Four instead of the Big Three, the Celtics will begin once more to dominate this league.
Once LA and Cleveland have to come here soon and Boston blows them out here, nationally the Celtics will get their due.
Over-reaction.
Why so?
Because of several reasons, like we're not being "30 points in a half" better than the Suns, not even close - and this coming from someone who feels we are vastly superior team, even without Perkins. And Rondo won't stop being inconsistent from now on - and he's not going to hit triples at this pace much more times during the rest of the season. We're playing a great game, they're even worse defensively than they use to be and are turning over the ball like crazy. But this game is not an accurate picture of the relative value of these teams, especially considering a Perkins-less and TA-less Boston.
And we weren't that good during the winning streak. Really, we weren't blowing out teams like world-beaters, we had plenty of very close wins in that streak.
