In its ability to reinvigorate the great debates on these boards, which I for one, do love to read for everyones insightful imput both pro and con!

And for the learning and motivational lessons a loss provides our team as they grow from the experience together!

This is the test of fire losses provide that wins just do not equal.

Likewise, having an opponent down 2-0 , they too rise to the occasion with their own backs to the wall, rising to play exceptional team ball above their own greatest expectation and statistics in their previous lopsided efforts.

I'm encouraged, that our Celtics do seem to come out in these playoffs and have consistantly won two at home and having home court advantage will secure the outcome we all have great hopes of them achieving.

I for one, love the drama and this playoff rollercoaster ride!  ;)

i for one would prefer not to lose by 24 points.

i agree though, so many overreaction threads when we lose, but when we win people tend not to revel in it.

bunch of pessimists!

Forget the drama- I want all 30 point blowouts and four game sweeps!! Seven game series and close games are just too nervewracking.
Seriouly though,this is fun. Am I concerned about Cleveland- yes, a little bit. Concerned about the Pistons, yes. The Lakers or Hornets, yes- very.
 But this is so much better than worrying about the freakin ping pong balls!!!!!!
