OK. This is it guys. Wanted to prepare better for the series and post something more insightful but oh well. Here we are. Nervous but confident. This will be hard, we won't play perfect all the time. I say we split in Boston, split in NY and then take 5 & 6. This could be JB's career changing series. Win this motherf*cker guuuuuys!!!
LET'S GO CELTICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kyrie is a piece of ****, but I want to beat Durant because he's greatness. Beating greatness means more than beating some punk ass little bitch.

I need this. I need thiisss..

LFG!!!!!!

Time to kick the tires and light the fires!!!!!!

Only way for us to lose this is if we're just sloppy with the ball.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

I'm not sure I can deal with 4-7 games with this type of anticipation/adrenaline lol.

Durant is incredible. Not every guy leaves a team after just missing a trip to finals to join the 70 win team that just knocked him out and get his ring …. so I have a pathological desire to see him fail in Brooklyn. Hope the Cs get it done.

Bruce Brown, draws the first foul.
How fitting.

Funny that the icon pictures for the starting lineups had Theis, Horford and Smart holding basketballs, but the Jays not doing so.

Per usual, my stream is at least a minute, minute and a half slow. My takes will be extra stale.

So amazing how much better Al has been last few months, he looked like a vet minimum player for a stretch in January
