Miami.  They don't have anyone who can take over a series.  And no, D-Wade isn't that guy anymore.  Also, they don't have anyone who can guard our best players.

The Heat, unquestionably.

While they might have the best defense out of the bunch, they simply do not have the offensive firepower to contend with this Celtics team if Kyrie is at least 80%.
The only color that matters is GREEN

Miami, Washington, and Milwaukee in that order.

I don't want to see Giannis in an early playoff series. Wall/Beal were tough last year. Miami lacks the big guns but could bring a tough series.

Wr may be the 2nd seed but for all practical purposes...this team's talent is jus as comparable to the 6th seed hence any series with anyone from 6 to 8 will be a dogfight.

Sadly without Kyrie. We could see a round 1 exit  specially if Boston shows up the one that craptors faced last night.. A tired bunch who practically gave up after 1 qtr.
If Brown plays like Jeff Green we are screwed..

I wonder if Kyrie would be back until April 21st, could we see him in 1st, at least some games, since it's certain that we won't be seeing any sweep.

I'm scared of Miami. They always seem to play us well.

tp. i agree. the celtics are better than any of them in a seven game series. if kyrie is back and healthy the celtics finish them in 5 games.

if smart is also back, then celtics can go deep into the playoffs. it should be a fun play offs. i wrote this team off after game one and hayward. so all of this is a bonus for me.  ;D

For me the choice is clearly the Bucks. As great as Giannis is the bucks as a whole are a mess.
Mavs
Wiz
Hornet

Who should we root for tonight with Cleveland/Washington? The Cavs so Washington is closer to 8 and plays toronto?

I don't think it really matters anymore to be honest.

Celtics really have nothing to lose heading into the playoffs, so if they lose to Washington in the first round, so be it.

If they can make the 2nd round though, that's a huge win IMO considering the circumstances. But if not, that's fine too, as long as the youth gets good experience and we don't get blown out every game (I mean, come on, we aren't THAT bad).
