How do you feel about the Celtics 08-09 season now?

Now that Orlando beat the Cavs in 6 games , how do you feel about the Celtics this season? I personally feel the Celts could have won it all again if they had a healthy KG and Leon Powe. What do you guys think? I think if the Celts can add a backup wing man like Pietrus and a legit backup Center they should be favorites again !

Exactly the same as I felt a week ago, and the same way I felt a month ago.  Disappointed that injuries submarined their chances to repeat.

I feel a little better that we lost to the team that made the Finals.  We gave Orlando more of a fight than Cleveland did, and that makes me feel good.  With KG next season, we should be able to compete with anybody.

The one thing I hope this doesn't do is give the front office a reason to be complacent, feeling we can compete with the roster from this season.  I really feel that we need to upgrade the team to fill in some of the glaring holes.

as long as the Magic can beat LA it will be a success!!!  because KG didn't play!! KG decides who wins the title!!

What I realized today is that, whoever wins the title, is not better than a healthy Celtics' team!!

And that last year, we won one of the gutsiest championships ever, just remember the Game 6 win at Detroit, it's priceless... I'm very proud of our team!! :)

It's even more frustrating.  Granted, I wanted the Magic to win this series, but seeing all the smiles on the players and Orlando fans just keeps on making me think "yeah you guys keep smiling, but I hope you realize that if we had a healthy KG, you would've been eliminated in 5 or 6 games."

It's unfortunate, but there's nothing we can do about it now.

Definitely feel like we would've repeated, but it will also force Ainge to improve our club this offseason. And we can come back that much better next season.

Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

I feel a lot worse, totally.

We choked away Game 6 at Orlando and had a terrible 4th Quarter in Game 7.

We should be in the Finals this year.

A little disappointed. We had 2 chances to close out Orlando and we didn't. Choked away game 6 and didn't show up for game 7. I still believe that the Celtics were the only team that had a shot at Orlando this year. That game 7 loss still hurts a lot  :( :( :(

Sad... because the could-have-beens are just overwhelming right now.

Lots to look forward to next year though, including:

Unfortunately, now Orlando's got to beat LA or we're hosed with Kobe getting a title w/o Shaq. All and all, I'm requesting Odom to not show up for the series and mail in a subpar performance.
