Michael Jordan,Larry Bird, Scottie Pippen, and Robert Parish. When you here these names, you think of the current Bulls Dynasty and of the Celtics Dynasties of the 60's,70's and 80's. But who is the best of all time, the Celtics or the Bulls? First, you would probably say the Bulls, and for some reasons I would agree. Some obvious reasons, like the play of that highly underated and lttle known Bulls guard Michael Jordan, and Scottie Pippen who is like the achilles heel of the Bulls (let's face it, it just wouldn't be the same without Scottie). And of course the 5 championships in the 90's, including the increadible 3-peat. Now, we have the 16 championship, 8 championship in a row, been here since 1946, Boston Celtics. Gee, where do I start? At the NBA record 16 championships in a row? How about the 8 championships in a row? OH, I know, how about the great Celtic player like Bob Cousy, John Havelicek, Bill Russel, Jo Jo White, Dave Cowens, and, of course, the "BIG Three" Larry Bird, kevin McHale, and Robert Parish. Well, dear reader, I guess you can put 2&2 together and get the answer to the question, which is the title. The best team of all time, despite the 70 win season, is the Boston Celtics.

Congatulations to Rick Pitino to taking the Celtics from the basement to being a threat in the NBA once again.Well he started off drafting Ron Mercer and Chauncy Billups, then he beat the World Champion Bulls in his first game as Celtics head coach. He then pulled off a great trade involving Toronto and the Blazers. He traded Chauncy and got Kenny Anderson in said trade. But then Kenny got injured and he still lead the C's to 32 wins and almost got them into the playoffs for the first time in I don't know how long.I call him King Rick because he pretty much runs the crippled Celtics dynasty. So King Rick if you keep it up you will hear all of Beantown saying, "All hail King Rick."
