Series Thread: 1) Miami Heat vs. 2) Boston Celtics

[HurricaneDij39]

Miami is four wins away from me having Keef as my avi. Can they do it?

I'll go Celtics in six, though. More talent, and gained valuable experience facing this team in the bubble, and Horford is back.

Not the same team from the bubble

This is gonna be a nice series.

Two fairly homegrown teams that have experience actually playing as a team.

Don't see that too much.

Nice observation! However, I feel that the Bucks still got screwed that year with the interruption of the season and not having the home court advantage that they earned. Good thing they got vindication last year.

If you are truly the best team, should find a way to win 4 of 7 on a neutral court with no fans. The Lakers did it

Any way you spin it, the league wanted them to.

No doubt that the Bucks were not the best team in the bubble tournament. All I'm saying is they got screwed that season. If things were normal, they would've had a better chance, IMO.

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but the NBA playoffs that season was closer to the Maui Invitational than a normal NBA playoffs. The season stopped for almost 5 months. I think the interruption period was as long or longer than an NBA offseason. The bubble tournament was like its own separate thing, but the NBA forced it to be connected to the 2019-2020 season.

Not the Celtics... they were streaky and struggly from 3 most of the regular season.
