Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
We’re more talented and healthier but they’re much better coached. I think we’ll have one poor shooting night we can’t overcome and another with defense so bad we can’t overcome either. 2 blowout wins and 2 close ones that should be blowouts but we win off talent alone gets us to the Finals again.

Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
Celtics in 6. Don’t think this Heat team has nearly enough weapons to hang over a seven game series.
Butler is tough as nails though, they will have to do real work to get the win.

Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
It's a sweep.
Butler is tough as nails, but the Celtics are the hammer that pounds the nail in Miami's coffin.

Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
I predict that Smart and Lowry will break the NBA record for most combined flops in a series.
(also, Celtics in 7, the Heat play tough and have a beast in Butler)

All Smart has to do is flop once for that to be the case.

Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
I called Celtics in 4 against ATL and in 5 against PHI.
Only makes sense to predict 6 against MIA and hopefully 7 against DEN:)

Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
Voted Heat in 5 but meant to say C’s in 5. I respect Miami but just doesn’t feel like they have enough juice to be in a conference finals. This very much feels like a magic carpet ride for an older, beaten down team. It’d be different if they had a healthy Herro and Robinson wasn’t stuck in a multi year rut.

Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
Celtics in 4 or more. I’m guessing we let up / get outfoxed once, maybe twice at most, but ultimately prevail.

Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
I can't even bring myself to vote. Just wanna say, I hope we step our game up for this series. Especially with Herro out, the Heat have less firepower than either the Sixers or the Hawks; but they still have what they need. They are well balanced, well coached, and are headstrong; the sort of team we struggle against. Less can be more.

31to6’s fault for even having those options.

Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
Celtics in 6, but only because they don't take all games seriously. If they did, this would be a sweep.

Y'all ever seen sgt bilko with Steve Martin? There is a fight where a fight is fixed and both players take a dive at once. We might witness more of that

You guys can go to the caves of Afghanistan for 2 weeks and when you return, Game 1 of the Finals will still be in Boston.

Re: Predict the outcome of the ECF
Celtics are rolling now. The Celtics have regained their identity. I'm expecting Celtics in 5.
