Boston vs. 8. Chicago - Boston in 5
Sticking with it.
me too.  know Chicago would get 1.  hopefully this will wake them up to play hard all the time, every game.  they have the talent to beat the Bulls.

I believe Washington will wipe the floor with the Bulls in round two.

I still think Boston is the much better team and they have been playing unfocused, lazy basketball. If they come and play like they're capable of, they could reel off the next 4 wins no problem.

That said, if they continue to play like they have and Chicago advances, I agree and think Washington would sweep this Bulls team.

If this team comes out flat and lifeless Game 3, why even bother continuing to watch.

God people on this forum are insufferable. If you don't want to watch, why take the time to write about the team?

I thought this was a forum for Celtics fans, not sissies wearing Celtics gear!

I've been doing just that the last two games, start to finish.

Every team has their bad starts, including Boston, I agree.

I guess I didn't mean that literally but if they come out and get bullied around again and fall behind big, I'll keep checking the score but I'll be doing other things than watching. Pretty sure lots of people would too.

Second Round

Celtics vs Wizards = I picked C's in 6 before the series. After Markieff's injury, it should be 4 or 5.

Raps vs Cavs = Cavs in a long series. 6 or 7.



Rockets vs Spurs = Rockets in 6 or 7. I don't think the Spurs big men will fare well against the Rockets spaced out offense.

Warriors vs Jazz = Warriors in 4. Sweep.
