I think the question is if the Cavaliers will keep Love out this series or not. Sometimes you just can't risk it.

5 games max. More likely a sweep if Cavs are healthy.

Cavs in 6. Boston has home court so 3 of the first 5 games in Boston, otherwise I'd take Cavs in 5.

This would be an interesting series had the Celtics gotten Jimmy Butler at the trade deadline.

The Celtics won the race for the ultimate Eastern championship: trying to win 1 game vs Cavs.

Good point. I keep thinking the Cavs have HCA.

The Cavs are the better team, I say they win in 6. I don't care, this team ist just getting started, with the ECF we have reached our goal, every win from now on is just an extra. We have been disrespected all year long, at the initial poll like 80% were voting for the Wizards, yet we're here and your team is most likely not. Worst 1st seed of all time, my ass!

I love this team but I'd be pretty surprised if the Celtics can get this to 6 games. I think they can get hot from 3 and steal a game in Boston, 2 may be pushing it though.

They're saying the Celtics might get a parade if they win a game in this series.

Celtics lucky to win 1 game.

They'll be waiting on GS.
