and in any case the celtics would bring back Bird, Bill Russels, Pistol Pete,Bill Walton and then sign wilt chamberlin, Pippen, Jordan, Patrick Ewing , Julius Irving, and im sure Isiah Thomas is gonna be looking for a job soon enough so why not?

Russel, Chamberlin, Ewing
Garnett, Bird, Walton
Pierce, Pippen, Dr. J
RayAllen, Jordon, Miller
Pistol Pete, Isiah Thomas, Rajon Rondo

Barring the "everyone dropping dead on the court" factor im seeing playoffs.

The Pistol & Wilt are no longer living...thus your argument is flawed.
