After the Carmelo Anthony to the Knicks deal went down the thoughts in my head shift to how does this effect the Celtics place in the Eastern Conference. I'm seeing a lot of "rivalry renewed" crap that now that the Knicks have Carmelo they should be considered equal with Boston. I have actually been a Carmelo fan dating back to his Syracuse days and he is without a doubt an elite player in the NBA. The more I sit here and think about it though I am still not ready to declare a state of emergency and do not believe that the Knicks are a threat, yet. This stuff doesn't phase the Celtics. They love playing the so called "super teams" and will show up to play and politely (or not so politely in KG's case) knock them off of the high horse that they rode in on. Now although KG said "Anything's possible" he also said "You got to beat somebody before it can be a rivalry."
