Looking back over the last 10 years, who were the best Celtics players over that stretch?

17812   Paul Pierce
7327   Antoine Walker
2940   Ricky Davis
2707   Ray Allen
2561   Mark Blount

Wow.  I don't think I would have guessed any of the last 3.

I tried that quiz ... missed Mark Blount. Never would have guessed of that.

[ToppersBsktball10]

I only got 104 out of 150.

[MattG12]

That game was awesome... I got 103 out of 150... It was good that I had 5 given with the Celtics top 5.

[Atzar]

115.  Although I was admittedly helped by the fact that I saw Blount's name posted here - wouldn't have got him otherwise.

[Bahku]

Pierce is the obvious constant ... the core, the heart, the captain, the leader, the TRUTH. The rest I will try to list in the order I feel they impacted the team and game:

Kevin Garnett
Ray Allen
Rajon Rondo
Antoine Walker
Kendrick Perkins
Al Jefferson
Leon Powe
James Posey
Eddie House
Ricky Davis
Rasheed Wallace
Walter McCarty
Ryan Gomes
Marquis Daniels
Shelden Williams
Bill Walker
Gary Payton
Kenny Anderson
Glen Davis
Dee West
Gerald Green
Eric Williams
Brian Scalabrine
Wally Sczerbiak
Tony Battie
Mark Blount
JR Giddens
Vin Baker
Lester Hudson
Kedrick Brown
Tony Allen
JR Bremer
Stephon Marbury
Jiri Welsch
Sam Cassell
Sebastian Telfair
Theo Ratliff
Chris Mihm
Marcus Banks
Brandon Hunter
Tony Delk
Raef LaFrentz
Dan Dickau
Michael Olowakandi

I know I'm missing a few, but they must have been relatively insignificant ... I hope.

[RebusRankin]

I was in the 120's. I apparently watch too much basketball. Worse is you get mad at those you missed.

[Roy Hobbs]

Wahoo!  131!  (Although, honestly, my score would have been much lower except that it gives you all players with the same last name, and any team they've played on.)

In terms of best Celtics of the decade, the list begins and ends with Pierce.  Antoine is in there, as are KG, Allen, Perk, and Rondo.

[Jeff]

anyone notice that Ray Allen is on 3 different teams on that quiz?  amazing

[Kwhit10]

110.  I would have gotten higher if I knew how to spell some of the names 

I probably tried for like a minute to spell Szczerbiak
