Feel bad for the Bucks. Screw the Sixers.

before the playoffs started, i told my buddies who are knicks fans that if the knicks make the ecf's, they have a good shot to beat the celtics. i think they can punk porzingis and take him out of the series. then it will come down to brunson vs. brown b/c og can slow tatum enough that the celtics will need to rely on brown. knicks role players are probably as good as the celtics. and thibs > mazzula. i think overall, the celtics are a little on the soft side.

Celtics are definitely not unbeatable. I think they can win the championship, and should win it. But I wouldn’t be surprised if they lost. It’s just hard to rely on a team led by Jaylen and Jayson.

At one point in the fourth they couldn't even make an entry pass to Embiid with OG on him. Clock just ran out. He had zero points in the fourth until the last minute.
Now Boston is a smaller team, and NY has beaten them up this year. The Knicks compete on defense and get extra shots on offense. They have Brunson who is may be playing the best ball in the conference and OG who can shutdown Tatum. I mean the Knicks are legit like Miami beating Boston last year, scrappy teams can make the finals.

yeah - but that's what makes the nba great now. no dominant stacked powerhouse teams.

Really? I think Ant is far exceeding Vince.
Maybe I'm remembering wrong...but we were still like a 5 seed in the east during Vince' breakout year?
Then he was largely neutralized in the first round vs the knicks. Alvin Williams and Oakley were huge.
Then Vince definitely showed out in the second round vs the sixers but was ultimately outshined by Iverson.
So edwards already led his team to a top seed in a much harder conference. And already shined in a series win. Two things Vince never did.
Someone can correct me if Im wrong. It was a long time ago.

ANT has a far superior team. Just look at the names you’re typing out: Alvin Williams and Charles Oakley.
