Celtics general manager Danny Ainge worked his magic two off-seasons ago, bringing in veterans Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen to compliment Paul Pierce's talent. It wasn't long before Boston was winning game after game last season, to no surprise to us. We recognized the moves were significant and as we would later learn, bring another NBA championship to Boston.

Although there weren't many changes made this past off-season, the Celtics are looking very good. They still have a very solid core with Garnett, Pierce, and Allen. Perkins and Rondo may not have the impressive ratings in NBA Live that the big three do, but they fill out Boston's starting lineup very nicely.

Should you choose the Boston Celtics as your Dynasty team, you should be able to repeat as champions. They clearly have all of the tools, whether it be scoring, defense, or bench depth. You shouldn't need to make any big changes during your immediate taking over of the team, but keep an eye on your team salary. This team is expensive to put together.
