Poll: Celtics-Bucks Series Prediction

[GreenCoffeeBean]

Celtics in 4

[BringToughnessBack]

I say we win in 6 although another sweep will not surprise me. If we do sweep them, We will sweep the next one too! 😁

Not that I think it will happen, but, if Boston were to sweep Milwaukee do they suddenly make everyone else in the league start to sweat some? Wonder what would happen to their odds of winning it all after a second series sweep?

Ahhhhhh....dreaming!!!

Maybe, but you'd certainly see folks on here saying the Bucks were overrated this whole time, we were lucky MIL was missing someone, the C's just haven't been tested enough and they'll get overwhelmed in 4 or 5 by Toronto instead

Celtics fans sound a lot like many Patriots fans

Hate say it but Bucks in 6..Celtics has no inside game on both offense and esp defense..Baynes is just a bruiser thats it

[jpotter33]

Celtics in six. I think we matchup pretty well with the Bucks and our much greater playoff experience will be the key factor in this series, along with our unique ability and players to throw at Middleton and Giannis. I think we'll take one of the first two games and then hold steady at home.

Bucks in 5 is my fear.

[MichiganAdam]

I think a lot depends on when Smart comes back, as he's key in slowing down Giannis. I'm going with Celtics in 6, assuming Smart comes back by game 4.

Jaylen has been great so far in the playoffs though, do you guys think he can handle guarding Giannis? I can see Hayward and Horford taking some time on Giannis as well, but Tatum would get crushed defending him.

Jaylen will be guarding middleton.  I see horford, morris, and ojelyne getting their chances with gianns.  Maybe even some baynes.  Tatum on Brown, and KI on bledsoe.    DO they start morris over baynes for Giannis?

I have the Celtics winning in 7. That will be a screamer of a game 7 in Milwaukee won't it?

[mctyson]

If they are going to win, it will be in 7, and they will need a huge series from Jaylen Brown or Jason Tatum.

[GreenCoffeeBean]

We have plenty of experience against a guy that can’t be stopped, only slowed. Giannis can’t score 50. Shut his teammates down.

[ozgod]

Boston in 6. We're peaking at the right end of the season.

[Phantom255x]

If they are going to win, it will be in 7, and they will need a huge series from Jaylen Brown or Jason Tatum.

My heart wouldn't be able to handle it. Hell, I don't know if I'll make it Tuesday night (Bruins Game 7) 

[Silky]

Boston in 6.

Maybe 5 but I thibkt the bucks will steal one on lopsided reffing

[Neurotic Guy]

Having been conditioned all season to expect disappointment and frustration, my mindset entering this series is the expectation that the C's will lose in 5 or 6.  If the regular season portends the story of the 2018-19 Celtics, they will not get past the Bucks. 

Of course, my hope is that what we saw was some sort of oddly orchestrated preparation scheme that will reveal itself as the competition gets tougher.  Maybe we were witnessing Wax-on/ Wax-off when it seemed that we were watching a team that just couldn't find itself.
