Never count out the Celtics!  This is one of the most resilient group of players that I have ever seen and Coach Stevens has been absolutely brilliant as well, genius level game planning and game management.  One man goes down, next one steps up!

Oh and we just got Jaylen Brown back.  Up 2-0 now.  We have a hell of a good chance to finish off the Sixers and advance to the Conference Finals!

Honestly the Celtics look hungrier than the Sixers in this series.  Watch for the pundits to be upset when their predictions get upended by our underdog C's!!

OMG Antoine Walker just said on tv that the Sixers will win in 5 after the Celtics whipped the Sixers in game 1.  ****?!

Guessing the confidence meter might be a little different now


Funny how the media influences our confidence. All we heard day in and out from espn is that Simmons is magic johnson 2.0 and embiid is hakeem. Now what? We got confetti for a 76er loss lol

I underestimated the lack of experience on the part of Philly's top players and coach.

That was my question about them winning so many regular season games and making it this far in the first place.

Shoulda stuck with my instincts.

A playoff series does not start until you win on the road. The Celtics' playoff series just started.

You mean, the Bucks series is not over yet?  lol

After Game 2, I thought the C's would win in 7 games, now after beating the Sixers on the road, it looks like 5 games will do it.  Very confident.

Tatum is taking it to a higher level.  He is the difference in the Philly series.  KUDOS!

I never, ever feel confident about winning a series.  Even now with the consensus here being C’s in 5, I can’t help think The Sixers have the shooters to come into the garden and steal Game 5.  Then it will be looking like a 7 game series again.

so, the series with milwaukee ended, but never started??  ;)

anyway, i confess to a lack of faith, a shortage of belief, an absence of confidence at the start of this series. i hoped the celtics would win, but i hedged my bets so as to limit the pain in case of a loss. forgive me fellow followers of the green.  :-[

sigh. i confess to you, my brothers and sisters, that i have sinned and lacked true faith. and i ask of you, my brothers and sisters and various dieties, to pray for the celtics as they go forth to stomp the snot out of the sixers.

a sweep is possible, very very possible.  ;D

LOL the Bucks series never happened  ;)

Man, the sky is the limit now. Please just win Game 4 and then punch the Cavs in the mouth.

The Miami series is what changed the thinking. They breezed past that veteran Miami team making us all think, "No wait, they're ready now." But maybe Miami was more dysfunctional than/not as good as we thought.
