Ray Allen already looks worn out. Lets hope he doesn't regenerate himself.

Possibly 6 since they don't get much rest.

Re: 2nd Round Boston vs Cleveland

Cavs will take game 1. Watch.

Boston doesn't have any idea what they are getting themselves into.

As for who I'd rather Detroit play...I'd say Boston.

It would be bad news for a team whose offense is geared toward getting uncontested looks to play a team whose defense is predicated on contesting shots at the highest % possible.

It's pretty much why we struggle so much offensively against them.

Re: 2nd Round Boston vs Cleveland

KG + Pierce + Allen > LeBron

Celts in 7.


Look for KG and Ill-gauskas to have a bloody battle.

Look for Allen to try to one-up Booby.

I believe when the Jesus does it, it's called 'resurrecting'





Like when Michigan and Notre Dame playe each other, this series will simply be known as the "Injury Bowl" in my household.

Go Injuries.

Re: 2nd Round Boston vs Cleveland

So it's shaping up to be

"WE" VS. "ME"

Only I'm not sure LeBron isn't the most unselfish player of the 4.

Sure, Garnett has been labeled unselfish, but thats mostly because he's crunchtime jello on the offensive end.

Meanwhile LeBron keeps racking up the triple doubles with assist totals that aren't even struggling to get past 10.

This series could easily shape up to be

"WE" VS. THE
3 a"ME"gos



Ilgauskis will own Perkins.

Ben can give Garnett one heck of a run for his money if he plays his butt off.

LeBron is totally capable of busting Paul up on both ends of the floor.

DeLonte West is underrated and completely capable of frustrating Rondo.

Wally World only needs to stay close to an aged Ray Allen for the Cavs to win or tie in all matchups above.

And thats just the starting 5. Bring in Gibson, put West on Allen. Now things get interesting.

This isn't Atlanta, Boston. Big Z is nothing like Pachulia. James is no Joe Johnson. He will laugh at their double teams, and his shooters can shoot. Can't wait to see the frustration mount when Garnetts in the popcorn popper and his boys can't do anything but put LeBron and his pals on the line.

I'm going the other way and calling Cleveland in 6.

Re: 2nd Round Boston vs Cleveland

Since I will never actually wish injury on any player...... damn morals....

I want an epic 7 game series where each and every game goes to atleast Triple OT so that all the superstars have to average over 50 mins a game so that there is no gas left in the tank.

I guess I would at the end of the day want us to play Cleveland in the ECF's so we can rid our self of the bad taste of last year, and if we can't then.... we don't deserve a title anyways.... That and I really don't like multi star teams being thrown together at the end of there careers... LA of 04 was another team I was happy to see go down...

Re: 2nd Round Boston vs Cleveland

I kind of agree. But I don't really care which team Pistons get to play, only that they beat up each other up. If you are going for the championship you should be able to beat whoever is on your path.

On the other hand, if the Pistons beat Orlando quickly and have too many days of waiting around, history suggests that they'll be completely out of sync for the first couple of games of the ECF.
