Celts in 4 unless the Heat pull out the old trustworthy play of injuring one of the Celtics top players

The worst part of this **** series is that even when Miami gets obliterated the only thing we're gonna hear is "huuurrrrrrr lucky Jimmy wasn't playing durrrrr"

Can't stand most non-celtics fans talking basketball honestly. And even some who like them.

Lmao this was great. I hate how Miami has Jordan retired up there also, dumb af.

No Jimmy or Rozier kills any chance we might've had. I think this goes 5 games for Boston. Joe sucks and Boston is mentally soft. Hate how easy of a path Boston has to an ECF.

If they let White and Holiday run the offense they are nearly invincible. But that ain't gonna happen. When you see Tatum slow walking the ball up the floor you can smell the loss coming.


You’re right yet again. Curm is never wrong guys, so if he says Miami in 4. Put your house on it.

Some of our best wins this season were without Jimmy. Jaime always plays well as a starter instead of him. It will be interesting how Jovic will defend Porzingis. He did a good job on Vuc.

We need Bam on Tatum and Caleb will take on Brown i guess.

Our main issue is those scoring draughts. We had a lot of them lately and while you can still win against most of the teams. Boston will punish you big time.

This will be a good experience for our young guys. Our starting unit is 24/28/23/20 and 26.

Celtics in 4. Miami just doesn't have the talent. Margin of victory will be double figures in each game imo

If not this series one of the 4 he will, and he doesn't even need someone like Bam to injury him, he's very good at it himself.

Well it doesn't just come out of no where with no truth to it, he has missed 361 games out of a potential 820 games in his career. He has literally showed up to work a little over half the time.

Heck the 57 games he played with your team this season is tied for the 2nd most he's played since his 2nd season. That's a good number for him.

Is your stance really that he's just not going to get injured anymore? Good luck with that.

Celtics have won 6 of the last 7 against miami (only loss because Tatum got hurt), including the last 3, sweeping the season series. 33 point blowout in January. and miami missing their best player.

miami don't have the talent or the heart to compete with this years Celtics

Celtics sweep 4-0
