Win this one and this is probably in the bag in 5 games tops. Can’t see them beating us twice in the next 3 games.
A new dawn will rise in Boston. ‎#StayLoyal THANK YOU TRUTH!

It's gonna be exactly like game 1. Cavs will stick around for 3 quarters with DM's heroics, then they will lose hope and get crushed in the 4th. Another ~20pt-margin victory.

Mitchell may need 60 to win a game

Protect home court. Don’t get lazy after 1 blowout win. Hopefully Tatum breaks out of this slump right now and finds his 3 ball again. Need to see him get going for the long run

Certainly trending towards a Boston/NYK matchup.

Realistically, he will need to average 50 for them to compete.

Unless the Celtics forget how to hoop.

I feel like we're going to run into a buzzsaw ourselves at the ECF's. After last night, it's difficult to see how this team is going to get challenged unless they make it tough for themselves for no reason.

have to assume the Cs will have a good likelihood to ramp it up when they need to -- especially if KP can come back and stay back.
until then, keep racking up playoff wins -- you need 16 and if the first 8 are easy, great.
not long ago we were desperate to win a series or two, and had a team with a guy (JT) who had to go for 50 for his team just to win a play-in game
this is WAY BETTER

Wouldn't rule it out. Mitchell 60 and cavs 30 in a 25 point loss.

I guarantee the Cavs will be packing their bags and heading back to Cleveland after this game.

Can’t see us winning while Tatum is playing like a role player.
