Rondo, Allen, Pierce, & Garnett > LeBron & Wade

Without Bosh this should be interesting. LeBron & Wade are playing great but 2 guys can only go so far. They have no help & nobody who can guard Rondo or Garnett.

Allen and Pierce are old and injured. Rondo posts triple doubles because nobody guards him. KG is their only matchup advantage, and even he is content with being a jump shooter. The Celtics bench is trash. Whos gonna stop D Wade? LeBron? The Heat beat a better Boston team in 5 last year. With Bosh out, Heat will go small with Bron at the 4 playing the Karl Malone role. Watch how he dominates their front court of Bass and KG. Pacers > Celtics

LeBron isn't gonna guard Garnett. If he does Pierce will avg 35pts a game. Allen may be hurt but he can still kill you from 3.

Lmao@Battier cant guard West. You must not have watched the last 3 games of the Pacers series. West was a non factor. Battier is one of the best perimeter and post defenders in this league.

Boston is a great matchup for Miami, theyre old, slow, and dont put up points. Miami's smallball will kill them.

Miami in 5.

I agree with KT, in that this is it for the old man Celtics. While the Spurs and Thunder will battle it out in the WCF, Miami will get this series over with quickly and get a lot of rest before the finals. The Pacers were the only threat to the Heat in the East, really.

On Battier, Battier is one of the best defenders in the league. He did a good job on West last series, and should be able to do a good job on Pierce.

The Celtics are a veteran group, they know now what Malloy and the NBA have in store for them.

Take a seat, Ed Malloy. If not for the rest of this season's NBA playoffs, at least for the remainder of the second round.

That should be the discipline dealt to the ref who tossed Paul Pierce out of yesterday's Boston-Miami game. Pierce wasn't the instigator on either of his technical fouls and if ever you're going to grant leeway on verbal sparring it's at this time of year.

lol, this was last year.

It's a shame when such a fine game is butchered by the zebras.

Oh well, tune in during the NBA Finals to see how the Heat fares.

    • True.  Sam and Baker did not do well here but went on to better things under better coaching, circumstances or both.  The real question is, ‘why aren’t the Panthers able to get improved performance out of ‘broken toys’, similar to Minnesota and Tampa? That is a rhetorical question.  I think we know the answer.   [The cultural reference to Pogo dates me, I admit.]
    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.  
    • I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch
