Smart/Bradley/Turner/Bass/Zeller with I.T/Crowder/Jerebko & Olynyk off the bench.
vs
Kyrie/Waiters/Deng/TT/Hawes with Zeller/Jack/Karasev/CJ Miles/Bennett/Delly off the bench, that's assuming AV remains injured.

I really think we win that series in 6 or 7 games.

Now that they have IT they would. A Hawes/TT front court isn't scaring anyone out of the lane.

Yeah they would have NO CHANCE. 3rd best record in East since trade dealine and they would have no chance whatsoever. Congrats on getting LeBron back...but dont get carried away, my man.

Boston was 3-0 vs the Cavs last year and they have a much better team this year.

I would like to see Thompson play thirty minutes a whole season, his inside game looks a lot tougher this year.

I've seen it defensively. I don't care to see it again. He's slightly better than Love with none of the offensive game.
