Did draft lottery kill chemistry?

[rondohondo]

Crowder and AB most of all, but IT too because the pg's in this draft?

This is ugly

[Sketch5]

No, this team is just cooked. No rest, and a ton of emotional ups and downs. Overachieved while others underachieved during the season.

Some of me wants to say DA needs to keep the pick and rebuild and wait a couple years when Lebron finally ages. The other parts of me wants to go after PG13 and Hayward.

Cavs killed chemistry

[SparzWizard]

Nah. The moment the Celtics arrived at the ECF is when they would fall apart to the Cavs due to inferior talent, and it's showing.

[mr. dee]

Nah. Crowder is just what he is, a bench player who shouldn't even starting on a 50 win team.

[Celtics4ever]

We were 3-1 all year versus the Cavs so I am guessing no.   It is a talent disparity as others have said.

This. The team is totally cooked, no legs, its obvious.

Durant made the right decision... that's how good this Cavs team is right now.

It's not THIS much of a talent disparity.  I mean, the Warriors clearly have more talent than the Spurs but San Antonio was blowing them out until Kawhi got hurt.

We are not nor have we blown out the CAVs at any point.  So I don't think it is the same thing respectively.

Because Kawhi is a true all star and who really deserved to be on the all-NBA-team, the press jumped on the IT hype train.

[Bobshot]

Cavs are much stronger up front, and they are attacking Celtics' weaknesses effectively.

I don't think it's about anything else. Celts just aren't strong enough up front to compete with the elite teams. They are still an unbalanced team.

it is that much talent discrepancy.

You got your numbers backwards. We were 1-3 against the Cavs in the regular season.
