What strategies can we use, and which of our players will be crucial ?
-Feel like horford can contain embiid. I forgot how baynes has done.
-smart will be our X factor on D

( I know the superstitious fans are gonna hate his early 2nd round thread  ;D )

Why are you jinxing this???

This is not an appropriate topic for right now.

We need to be thinking about how we can match up against the Raptors.

Why stop there? Let's talk about how we can beat the Rockets or the Warriors in the finals.

Or how we are gonna restructure our title defense team after Hayward comes back.

This first, then,
let Brad do his thing.

Way head of you guys. Should we retire Brown's numbers in the rafters after multiple championships?

Let me put it this way --- every game that the Celts win from now on will be a total grind like it was tonight against the Bucks.
You’ll have to excuse my lengthiness—the reason I dread writing letters is because I am so apt to get to slinging wisdom & forget to let up. Thus much precious time is lost.

By beating the Bucks first. Making the second round is not a give .
I'm bitter.

We should rather do it next home game, since it is 100% certain to happen, so why the uneccesary wait.
We can also introduce Dončić to the press then.

Calm down people. Jinxing in this sense is about as real as ghosts. Unless the Celtics players read this forum and somehow this post affects their performance (as if there aren’t 100 other similar things that they could read instead), it has 0 impact. So, the next time your team is winning and you say to your friends “this is over,” and they happen to lose, know that you have just witnessed a coincidence, not a jinx. I know that your parents told you that you can do anything... perhaps, just not that. The way to jinx someone is to do it in person, also known as getting in their head. I suspect that professional athletes are, however, difficult to jinx.

In terms of the Celtics beating the Sixers, we’re going to need to stop dribble penetration and rotate to shooters. Horford on Simmons, Baynes on Embiid, rest will contain penetration and rotate to shooters. I think we played them very well in the regular season. We’re missing Kyrie, but I don’t think we need him for this matchup. We can just abuse Redick.

We need to worry about the Bucks first.  Nothing to do with jinxes, which do not exist, but rather taking care of business.

Finish this one first.  I hope we cut their hearts out and close out on their home court.

That's pretty much a given. Question is should we draft Tatum or Al Horford's son.

well spiritual paranormal activity has been proven. i have experienced it.  We may not be jinxed by this OP but it was silly nonetheless.
LET'S GO CELTICS!
