Quick Hit: 2008 Celtics v. 2010 Celtics

This will be a much bandied about topic in Celtic Nation over the course of the next several months. At least I hope it is, or something has gone awry in the Land of Green. Most of us would agree that discussing said subject is premature. But, you know, that never stopped me before.

So let's get round 1 out of the way.

2008            2010              Winner
KG KG 2008
Truth Truth Tie
Beast Beast 2010
Rondo Rondo 2010
Jesus Jesus Tie

PJ Sheed 2010
Posey Marquis 2008
House/Alien House/Walker 2008
Powe/Davis Davis/Landlord 2008

See comments section for supporting analysis.

KG in '08. Why? No knee injury.

Truth is a tie. No good reason yet to give either version of P-squared the edge.

Beast--Barring injury, almost no one doubts Kendrick Perkins has improved, and improved quite a bit over the last two years.

Rondo--See my analysis for the Beast.

Jesus--See my analysis for P-squared

Sheed--three years younger. more overall talent.
Posey--Squisy has some big shoes to fill
House/Alien--Alien home early in playoffs, Alien game winner v. SA, House game 4 NBA Finals.
Powe/Davis--perhaps the greatest unsung reserve power forward combo in NBA history.

So on September 30, 2009, the score is 4-3 for the 2008 Celtics.

What say you?

I am agreeing with all apart from the house/alien thing, i reckon skywalker is going to do a better job than alien. Don't ask me why, i am just liking the kid!

Hey Matt,

That might be true.

But E.House 2010 v. E.House 2008 has to go 2008 until E.House does something like he did in game 4, no?

Matt said...

you make a good, point! then i suppose that i would call that a tie aswell in my books, it will be close though!

and per Florida Celts Fan, Sky is having his knee examined.
