Boston has had a combo of a few unfortunate injuries mixed with Brown and sometimes Tatum getting frustrated with the ball slapping when they dribble into traffic. Those are drives they score on most teams. Don't get me wrong I have no issues with them not calling it I just wish they would make the adjustment faster to not try to force dribbles through the lane.
Having said that, I think the time off between rounds and extra days between games helps Boston a lot and the Warriors don't play the same style of defense that gives us trouble so I feel good about beating the Warriors. I always thought it was the best matchup Boston could have hoped for. It's still going to be a tough series that either team can win obviously.
This is what they are playing against....this Heat team isn't even playoff worthy right now in this state tbh.
And Tatum, Smart, and Robert Williams all wouldn’t be playing either if it were regular season. See how easy this is?
So 2 guys compared to 5 when 2 of those 5 are the Heats top 2 scorers...sounds even.

Pretty sure Tatum, Smart, and Robert Williams is 3 starters, not 2...
So the best player in the series, DPOY, and 2nd team all defense center
compared to
Strus (LOL) , Lowry (LOL), Butler, and Herro who has been god awful this playoffs. Sounds even!

Tatum faked his injury but whatever count him if you must...you only counted 4 yourself and forgot Tucker.

If you really think Tatum faked his injury I don’t need to waste my time arguing. Pretty damn obvious he’s not the same as he’s short on almost every shot and holds his shoulder every other trip down the floor but have a good one bud!

Well within the realm of possibility and I think it already has that label.

Dallas Phoenix series in the second round is up there. Might have been the dullest 7 game series of all time

I don't feel like losing for it but there was a thread on here immediately after hero's groiin injury and I said that groin injuries are the worst and that I wouldn't count on herro to do anything significant the rest of the playoffs and here he is still out tonight in a must win

If Boston allows this series to go back to Miami the Celtics don't deserve to win a championship. And they probably won't against a well rested Warriors team even if the Celtics win game 7.

Yes hopefully they spank whatever is left of the Heat. You are almost as classy as the person in your username.
Oh no hopefully the team I root for loses in a close competitive game so Heat fans can feel better

Of course I want the Celtics to win by 70 points if possible that has nothing to do with being classy or not

when you think about it, they've kinda been spanking Miami this entire series. Like, okay, there have been some points in time where they have been close and they lost a couple games. But by and large it seems like Boston has been kicking their butt mostly.
