I wouldn't say they overachieved.

Many picked the Bucks to beat them. Nobody thought they would get to game 7 of the ECF when the playoffs began.

After watching them, they are damn good as is. But, they were led by 3 guys all under 24 who have not had to carry the load in the playoffs before. Maybe overachieved is the wrong word, but don't think many outside of Boston thought this was possible.

That's what happens when you keep trying to shoot 3s. The cavs got in their heads and they caved.

They got some valuable experience.

Boston vs Philly in the ECF for a long time once James leaves Cleveland.

I picked them to beat the Cavs in seven games. I'm not surprised they beat the Bucks either.

The Bucks will be better with their new coach.

I thought they would lose to the 76ers. The Celtics out of the Cavs, Rockets and Warriors were the only ones out of the 4 that could lose and consider the season a success - especially after losing Heyward the first 5 minutes of the season and Kyrie in March. But the Celtics have a bright future so long as Ainge keeps making the right moves and Irving stays healthy going forward. Those are the only two question marks.

But I tried telling ya'll. You guys tempt fate way too fucking much. I learned my lesson after the 2016 Finals. Don't talk shit until the series is truly over.

Having said that, @DJ I'll take my vcash now.

@Mecca where we going out to? I gotz money.
