Haven't watched much Celtics ball, but against the Heat this past Sunday Rondo looked out of it for 3.5 quarters. He (along with the rest of the team) is probably still pissed about the Perkins trade. Even if they get past the Knicks, I doubt they will beat the Heat without home court. I'd like to see the Knicks vs. Heat in 2nd round. We'll see what happens...
Celtics should win it easily. Bad matchup for the Knicks. KG is going to easily lock down Amare and Carmelo shouldn't be to much of a problem as he will consistently be getting double teamed.
Someone please start a new thread with a poll. I forget who did them all last year. Whoever it was, please do it again.
As much as I hate the Celtics, I have to agree with what you're saying. Also the Knicks bench is absolutely terrible.
When is game 1? I really hope its Saturday because my Sunday is packed Unfortunately it'll probably be Sunday afternoon
I'm definitely hoping for this. Hopefully KG will lock up Amare, Pierce will make Melo his b**** and Rondo/Allen will destroy them. Most likely though it will be Celts in 5.
Can't discount the Knicks...they've been red hot, winning 7 straight. Melo/Amare finally clicking. Boston in 7.
amare actually hadn't played that well during this losing streak. offensively, it's all been melo. hopefully this short rest can rejuvenate STAT it'll be on sunday, which is when the better matchups are featured. put miami, lakers, boston/ny, on sunday.
