I give the edge to Miami on this one because of Bam.

Not sure anyone on the Cs matches with what Bam can do. Theis and the Timelord will have their hands full

7 games either way. Going to be a wild one.

Tough to make a pick before knowing the status of Hayward. Sounds like he'll play in the series but will likely miss the first 2 games at least.

I picked Celtics in 6, mostly because I'm confident Hayward will be playing in this series. Even if he's limited out there, I still like our chances.

Who does Kemba cover? If it's Robinson he's going to put up 8 3pm a game against him. I figure they have to put Smart on Goran right?

This heat team is not the same team it was before the trade. Crowder might as well be Battier and Iggy plays great in his minutes. The guys we traded were mostly addition by subtraction with all due respect to Winslow.

Boston super stacked, like 4 players averaging 20ppg with playoff experience + depth, Kyrie should have stayed!

Heat in 4

What would you have predicted vs. the Raps? Heat in 2?

If Miami doesnt go Box and 1 on him he is going to breathe easy this series.

Boston had a top offense for most of the way. Getting Hayward back is huge.

when are you getting him back? will he be able to play the first game?

Big question hes not going lights out his first game back hes not going get big minutes...

He's still being evaluated. So that sounds like not soon.

Before the season started who would've guessed that Miami would get this far?

I bet most people looked at them at as a "treadmill" team and thought that they had no future. They prove that you can stay competitive and with the right moves, plus a little luck, go on a long playoff run.

Butler vs Tatum

Dragic vs Kemba

Marcus smart may take away Miami's deadly weapon in duncan robinson, but I dont see what boston is gonna do about Bam Abedayo

Overall, great matchups and great series

I'll give you Crowder and of course Jimmy is great but Iggy looked cooked when I watched him. Tatum would love to have Iggy guarding him all game.

He just cleared quarantine today. Early signs are that he looks good. He hasn't been ruled out for gm 1

I just hope the Celtics don't use any of the Bucks defenses..

The disrespect Theis gets is insane. He’s one of the best defensive big men in the league.

So the Raptors made everything so difficult for us and exposed some of our weaknesses but does that mean Boston should have it easier vs Miami or have they now developed some bad habits that are fatal flaws?

Since Raptors are out, I gotta support my dude Jimmy Buckets. Good luck to both teams though.

Heat have the better player, team and better coach. No way in hell. Put some respek on Miami.

Based off what? How did they look head to head in the regular season?

Heat had the **** up schedule always playing the Celtics on a B2B. That and players such Winslow, James Johnson and Dion lol.
Crowder and Iggy plus Dragic no longer limping makes this Heat team a whole different animal, and deep.

Get ready, It is going to be a tough fun series!
