Series Thread: 2nd Round: 2) Boston Celtics vs 3) NY Knicks

[dtgold88]

There was a first round sweep already

2 I think (Cavs and OKC, too?)

Knicks in 6. I've got to support my team, right? The Knicks steal game one by shooting lights out from 3, and still need a buzzer beater to seal it. Then both teams exchange wins until game 6 in NY. If it goes 7, The Celtics will get every call in Boston, so the Knicks gotta take it down in game 6 in New York.

Word, bro....and I share that optimism...(though mine is somewhat guarded)
But the C's have had the Knicks number for the past few seasons now.
Only way I can see us advancing to the EC finals would be if Boston loses one of their front line starters to injury...and even then it wouldn't be a certainty....but we'll see..the Knicks are definitely a gritty bunch......also, I would like to see Thibs go a little deeper in using some more of his bench players who he often overlooks....and barely got any run in the Detroit series, but imho should have...namely Shamet & Achiuwa...and even Wright or PJ Tucker.

Not hate the Knicks (I save all that for the sixers lakers and spurs) but….

Oh I ahte the Bricks- but my real hate is for the Heat and Lakers-- my Pistons hate has died down considerably. Seeing the Cavs slaughter the Heat in the most lopsided series in NBA history was very fulfilling- esp. Herro bragging about how the defense was bad and he had them figured out and then he absolutely shit down his leg in game 4 and crawled in a hole.

Celts in 4. Knicks seem soft. Losing Randle lost their edge. Bridges is so soft. OG isnt soft but he isnt enough.
