My friend thought that the Boston Celtics were a superior team to the Phoenix Suns last season. He said that he wished Nash could go to a good team. I had to do a little research to back-up my claim that they weren't.
I took offense at your comparison of Phoenix vs. Celtics. Phoenix played Boston twice last year and beat them handily in both games. On November 6, they beat Boston, 110-103 and on December 30, 116-98. That could implicate Phoenix as the superior team between the two.

The Lakers made it to the finals over Phoenix based on a lucky shot by Ron Artest: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thdemQiH3NU.
Many people thought that Phoenix would have beaten the Celtics also in the finals. Here is an article with a poll taken that supports this premise.
I personally don’t think that the Suns, Celtics, or Lakers are superior teams. On a given day, any team will beat another team depending on circumstances…with luck being a big circumstance.
