Do you fear the Celtics?

I think they would be a good 6 game series.

Lol no.

I do fear that some of their mods like froob will live in their parents basement forever.

I just don't see the point even thinking about the celtics. The odds of them getting past the Bucks are slim. More worried about how Raptors might match up against the Bucks.

First they need to pass Bucks before we start worry, if they can beat the Bucks than yes i am worry . But I don’t think they will. And also we need to beat 76ers first before we worry about final lol

I fear the refs more than the Warriors tbh

I fear Raptor killer Jimmy Butler more than the celtics or bucks. I think Philly’s sizeand shooting will give us trouble and not to mention the league not wanting us in conference finals, refs will be philly’s 6th man

Jimmy is also a pretty good rebounder. I feel if they beat us it will be off the back of offensive rebounds which is clearly our weakness.

Not at all. I think philly can do some good things but we should beat them in 7. I do fear the bucks though.

Yeah that’s well said. But you shouldn’t have to say it again or allow this again.

We own Philly. Orlando gives us more trouble.

You guys may not fear the Celtics, but you should respect them. They are a better playoff team than they were in the regular season and I give them a pretty good chance at upsetting the Bucks.

Maybe not "fear", but what ever team comes out the winner in the C's vs Bucks series would be pretty scary. They'd be battle tested for the ECF.

Kinda glad that we ended up the 2nd seed actually. Not to take Philly lightly or anything, but I'd much rather the Raps face them than the C's.

If we get the same kind of calls we are getting now,
...then yes.

A little bit since they have been playing much better in the second half of the season. That being said, they are beating the Pacers who for as good as they were without Oladipo in the regular season are showing they miss him a lot more in the playoffs.

Lastly, they haven't seen the current version of Siakam. I think they got a taste when we last played them at the end of February but he's even better now.

This is true and fair. Bucks have had no test in the playoffs. Boston is playing injured Indy but definitely look better than regular season. They could do it.

Saying that, Boston is not looking amazing either. Defense is solid. Offense is iffy then they give it to Irving. Giannisi doesn't look great. Detroit is just playing so bad that it's been easy. Milwaukee will have 2- 3 weeks without a competitive game so Boston can take Game 1. Then it will be a series.
