Hold on guys. I'm happy with what I've seen for the most part. But lets not get too far ahead of ourselves.
It took us 7 games to get past the Cavs before and they're better now. I'm still not sure the Celtics are even as good as back then.
definitely agree.
let's not get carried away. the Celts are more focused right now and playing some good defense for more than just one quarter.
however - i'm thinking this is probably a very good matchup for us and that fact is helping us to look better than we would otherwise.
having said that ........ fortunate matchups are what some championships are made of - remember 1976 ??
it is kinda nice to watch some of these other teams go thru what the Celts have had to endure the past two seasons - tough early round matchups against young athletic teams who are just happy to be there and having fun tormenting a favorite. i'm watching OKC bury the Lakers in game 4 as we speak.
