PP-led units can beat either of these teams. Save our top 6 for the ECF.

Are you sure that the loser of this game will win the next one?

Honestly, it would be hilarious if Joe started PP, Hauser, Kornet, Svi and Brissett in the first game.

All game planning out the window for the opposition and a big **** you to them.

Of course if it backfired then Joe should just resign, but it would be amazing still. :lol:

The zone causes just the right amount of confusion

Either of these two teams will be a tough rd 1 matchup IDC what the regular season stats show. Who we getting?!?!

zoyathedestroya · Post #1947 » by **zoyathedestroya** » Thu Apr 18, 2024 1:33 am

I wouldn't mind if they both lose. Cs just play one of Hawks/Bulls.

Seem to recall hearing the same thing during the Atlanta Vs Heat game last year and Heat vs Chicago game

Which is why it’s a good thing that this Celtics team is incredibly different, and far better equipped to smoke them.

Which to steal a Mike Tyson line "Everybody has a plan until they get hit for the first time" or in the Celtics case Its all smoke till the opponent start raining threes on them from scrubs and they can't make their own.

ATL or Chi don’t have that extra boost come playoff time. Heat will be coming to Boston on Sunday unless they pull this off

Very entertaining. Go sixers. And then I hope
Jimmy will be out for the last play in game.

It's all about Boston and their mentality. It's about their ability to stay calm, play smart, execute, trust each other and defend at a high level.

If they do that with their talent and stay healthy, opposition won't matter until maybe Denver.

Hey Tatum did promise at the beginning of the season he would come off the bench one game this year. Mightiest well make it happen.

This is the way it is suppose to be. Will be nice to do the Miami thing early and let somebody else wear out NYK
