Boston Celtics has a chance to upset the Cavs in first round

[imnew09]

This team has gone 7-3 in the last 10 games. Have a solid bench and good role players. I have a good feeling that they are going to upset the Cavs

No you don't

[Jud]

They have a chance to take them to 7 games. I don't think they'll beat them though.

[MMM]

Boston is 25-16 in their last 41
Only Atl and Cle have been better in the East
But Boston would be lucky to win more than 1 game
But so would most East opponents
How many games would Toronto, Washington, Milwaukee, or Chicago win vs. Cle????

[Eric Cartman]

Shouting that bullsh*t loud and proud you wanker.

[inclinerator]

just like pelicans/thunder have a "chance" to do the same to gsw

:oldlol:

Nope. The Cav's are gonna steamroll through them.

[imnew09]

If Kyrie or Lebron struggle, of course Celtics will be able to pull off the wins

If the celtics win more games than the Cavs through out the series than I think they could upset the Cavs.

[Genaro]

I can see them winning 2 games tops. Everything above this would surprise me a lot.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Theyre a decent team (which means good in the Least) but the cavs were missing 4 of their top 5 players. lets relax

Boston could take a game, maybe 2 at home but thats it

[MP.Trey]

They might push it to 5...

[Wally450]

They'll be legitimately lucky to win 1 game. They'll get swept or best lose 4-1.

[MJistheGOAT]

Yes, they have a chance ...

The detail is this chance is about 0,00001%

I hate Cavs but please don

[bigt]

Let's not act like the Cavs team that they fielded the last two games will resemble their playoff game.

[Rolando]

The great thing is is that the Celtics can play with zero pressure because they have already surpassed all expectations by frikken miles. Anything from here on out is gravy. The guys are heroes.

The Cavs, on the other hand, need to win it all. The moment things get tough, watch for Lebron to mentally start cracking again or just give up.

Would you bet your life on it?

They probably won't even have a tough moment in the series. And lol at a team finishing 4 games under .500 being considered "heroes"

[Im so nba'd out]

i think a couple games will be close but i see a sweep i hope celtics fall to 8 so cavs have to play pacers

OP is Nostradamus :bowdown: :bowdown:

[Dr.J4ever]

These kids....so much delusion on this board..

When will fans realize that there are only 3-4 teams yearly that have any chance at all of being in the Finals? The others are mere pretenders, and others like the Celtics don't even belong. The harsh reality of the NBA, in contrast to other sports, is that upsets in a 7 game series between unequal teams in talent happen much rarer than in other sports.

The Celtics would have been better served in the lottery to get needle movers and game changers. This is why I like what my 76ers are doing. We get another top 5 pick this season. This could be Mudiay or Rusell. They will join Embiid and Noel. In another season, we get Saric, another lottery pick.

Being in the playoffs can be detrimental, if the current nucleus of your team is not foreseen to be the projected nucleus for a future title team.

So what the heck is being in the playoffs for? Being delusional and thinking you can beat a stacked Cavs team? LOL.

Not nearly as delusional as the idea that Philly has been drafting needle movers and game changers with the multiple shots at the lottery they've had in the last several years :oldlol:

Last several years? You mean last couple of years. This is year 2 of the Plan. In 2 years, we have drafted a defensive game changer in Noel, who was one of top rim protectors in the NBA this year. He also averaged around 13ppg and 10 rebounds after the all star break.

Next year, he will be joined by Embiid, who is reputed to have as much upside as a young Duncan or Hakeem. It's all over Google, not from me.

In the 2015 draft, we are likely to draft in the top 5, which could land Russel or Mudiay or Mario Hezonja. In 2016, 4 more 1st rounders, possibly 2 in the lottery are likely. Dario Saric, another lottery pick from 2014, will join us in 2016 after playing very well this year in the Euroleague playoffs.

The more top tier talent you draft, the likelier you end up with needle movers and game changers. It 's really simple.

Again, I like our prospects better now than if we made the playoffs in the weak east by signing a couple of mediocre free agents at the beginning of this season only to have absolutely 0% chance of defeating a stacked team in the 1st round.

How was I wrong? Celtics took out Kevin Love, got Jr Smith suspended for 2 games. Thats one hella UPSET!

[pauk]

Its a sweep, but Celtics roughed Cavs up more than any team will.... physically... so much so it will dramatically affect their success in the playoffs... some other team will beat Cavs, but it will be all thanks to Celtics....
