 Comparing Boston and Golden State
Up to the minute news about the Boston Celtics from GoTeamsGo. We'll find the latest Boston Celtics news so you can chat about here. Quote: Celtics behind the curve
How come the Golden State Warriors can make the NBA playoffs and the Boston Celtics can't? Or how come those same Warriors can knock off the best (record-wise) team in the NBA and the Celtics are hoping to get the proper ping pong ball drop?
Of course, Golden State's Don Nelson is a far better coach than Boston's Doc Rivers. It's ironic that a former Celtic player, whose number hangs from the rafters in the TD Banknorth Garden, is in the middle of this discussion.
But having said that, the coaching isn't the major difference between Golden State and Boston — it's at the top of the organization.
Danny Ainge and Chris Mullin were both good NBA players. Both are about the same size and played similar games. But that's where the similarities end. Mullin was a far better player than Ainge, and he has proven to be a far better head of basketball operations.
