1 more win would silence a lot of Embiid/Harden haters. Boston is probably the most talented team in the league.

Golden State is easily the most talented team in the league, but it seems like they won't be able to overcome this year's chemistry issues and the dynasty might just be over.

GS has one All-Star. Boston has two All-NBA players and a much stronger supporting cast.

GS would love to have Brogdon/RWilliams/GWilliams off the bench. All 3 guys are better than any bench player on the Warriors.

they're just lazy, lacks hunger, and completely content with their past success.

They would still have to get by the Heat. Harden has at least made a WCF. Yes, beating Boston would silence them for a bit, but they'd need to make the Finals, or people would still look at them as jokes.

That's just how basketball fans are.

Philly hasnt gotten to the ECF since Iverson. Just getting there would be a big deal. And i don't think Miami has an answer for Embiid/Harden/Maxey.

Philly and Boston both have way stronger casts outside their best player. I can't even imagine how good the Celtics would be with Curry on their team. They'd be better than the Warriors when they had KD.

We will gladly trade Reeves plus picks for Klay.

They really haven't played like it in these playoffs. Nearly needed 7 games to beat the Hawks, lost at home to Philly without Embiid, just got destroyed last night. They could still win the series obv, but they have looked very beatable all postseason long so far.

Reaves is basically Klay with a dribble and playmaking game. A straight swap would be alright.

except there is levels to this shooting, Klay provides a whole different component to an offense. Reaves is a lot younger though and I like his character more.

The Curry, Brown, Brogdon etc Celtics would be better than Curry/KD/Klay/Green etc Warriors? :lol

Klay shot 35% from the field in last years finals. Even Reaves would have done better than that.

They play like a team that knows they have more talent and thinks they can win without the effort/execution they had last year. I think the coaching change might be playing a role in this.

right, Curry, Brown, Brogdon, dpoy Smart, Horford, White, would be better than Curry, KD, Klay, Draymond, Igoudala, livingston, McGee, West?

Yes.

This Celtic team is loaded with two way All Star talent.

Tbh... Tatum is shitting the bed again. He opened this game up like trash yet again and Philly capitalized off it.

The elephant in the room is Boston gets bounced in the 2nd round last year if Middleton isn't hurt. They had to squeak out a 7 game win with Middleton missing the entire series. Then they were one Butler 3 away from potentially losing to Miami. I agree with you they have a lot of talent & depth, but it doesn't necessarily translate to on the court results, esp in these playoffs so far.

Yeah but they had issues for years playing below their talent level. They had a midseason turnaround last season after a bad start. They started moving the ball better and playing defense with intensity. But old habits die hard.

I know you're the product of Canada's crappy education system, but learn how to spell.

It's Reaves.
