The Celtic hype honestly is a great set-up for LeBron to earn some serious credentials this year if he upsets them.
He has got to be loving flying under the radar, as much as LeBron James can fly under the radar, while Boston gets talked up left and right, as the greatest this or that.
Very good point. Cleveland plays excellent D and matches up well with Boston.
Like last year the Celtic bench has played better than expected, but the playoff-time Celtic bench played better defense than the current bench.
Injuries are always a factor. Any NBA champ, almost by definition, has a good year injury wise and dynasties (Boston, Lakers, and Bulls) are invariably composed of durable players.
