LOL.
It's more about how good the Thunder and Cavs looked all season.
Add in the nagging injuries, it's an uphill climb.

Orlando is a great test... (significantly better than the average #7 seed, they've been weighed down by injuries all year but they're relatively healthy now)... but...

... they're definitely a bruising team. No doubt we're feeling it from a physical standpoint in this match-up.

We can only hope that guys like Brown, Tatum, Porzingis, Holiday are only sustaining minor injuries and can shake them off and be available and somewhere close to 100% going forward.

Orlando fighting

Every team facing elimination fought like crazy except the team that plays in Downtown Miami

Teams need to guard Boston just like Orlando. They have done a great job of limiting Boston 3 pt attempts

Now everything going C's way

Orlando got the horses to play top notch defense... not every team can replicate what they can do.

Anywho, good to close out the Magic in 5... rest up, C's.

Boston in 5. Orlando squeaks one out

Celtics

Boston in 4.

Magic in 5

Boston in 6, their 3s don't drop every game.

C's in 5.

Celts in 6 … this is the time to drop one or two

Celtics in 5

Magic in 4

If Orlando's top players are healthy and on the court... the Magic are significantly better than a typical 7 seed.

I could easily see this one going to 6.

Celt's win in the end, of course.

Boston will probably win but wouldn't shock me at all if it goes 6 or 7

So three of us called it. Good job, TF12 and Shane

Point-of-order:

I said the Magic could push it to 6 games... so I was correct too.

(and you were incorrect for suggesting that I was incorrect, Hu)
