    Boston's coaching is a huge advantage...and they have a just as good a HC as anyone in the NBA.

    People underrate their players and they have one of the best coaches in the league.

    I'm guilty of underrating the Celtics players. I still look at their roster and think they are trash. It's why I'm always so shocked how well they play.

    Tony Rozier might be the real deal. I don't know if the Celtics keep him or trick someone into thinking he is a real superstar and trade him for Kawhi.

    When you look at their team it's pretty amazing, not sure how they are going to handle their cap with all the good young players they have.

    Scary Terry keeps this up some team will throw him a ton of money, just how it goes in the NBA, they still don't have Hayward and Kyrie lol.

    If the Rockets can't stop the Warriors dynasty, this Celtic team just may be able to do it. The 6ers looking like a super team in the making as well, kind of like the young Thunder, just need more experience, but have potential MVPs on their team.

    I've been saying this all season long: Simmons and Fultz can't shoot worth crap. A huge no-no in this era of basketball.

    Tatum, Brown, and Rozier are light years ahead as shooters and play for a genius coach.

    Celtics in 6.

    76ers looking exposed. All out of sorts on the defensive end.

    This should end the "Sixers are going to the Finals" blather....

    They had a nice 1 round win but the second round is when the sh** gets real

    Wow, do the Celtics even need Kyrie and Hayward at this point? Tatum and Rozier are legit studs, might as well build around em now.
