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.

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
