Fitting that our last playoff series was against the Celtics and now we get them again.

It will all come down to how well Kyrie plays defense on Smart. Smart's the key to any hope Boston has. Stop him and Boston has no hope. Even then their chances are small. Boston has played a lot better lately though. I get them cedit for not just tanking and hoping for a good draft pick again.

While you don't want to toy with the rotation, I think that this would be a good series to give heavy minutes to Marion & Shumpert. I don't see anyone on the Celtics stopping or even slowing down the big 3, so it would be better to hide Kyrie on anyone but Smart or Isaiah Thomas and let the bigger players deal with them.

Good to be back in the playoffs. TT's defense has been pathetic so far
