I'm feeling a bit uneasy that, all of a sudden...We are the BEST team...I liked flying under the radar...All of the ESPN/Sports Tonight/Around The Horn/PTI guys are saying this series is OVER...Wish someone was picking the Magic to win the next 4 games.

Celtics play their best when NOBODY believes in them...Plus--I hate this 3 days off garbage...But, then again--we've SUCKED at home on Fridays, so maybe it's for the best.

Too much time on my hands.  ::)

Don't worry. Lakers are playing so well that you'll get your underdog predictions again come the finals.

I'm really not worried about Orlando. I think we got this.

I would prefer a little less talk as well. But the character of this team appears to have changed. We don't get fat and happy anymore -- this is the playoffs, baby.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

Agree ... too much time for tension to build and our "underdog" status to be degraded. ;) (TP)

Yeah, I'm having trouble fighting off the feeling of "this is too good to be true."  But I believe in this team. 

Like FallGuy said, if and when we face the Lakers in the finals, all of the experts will be picking them, so we'll be underdogs again.

If we lose this series because of the media then we never had what it takes to win in the first place. So you're worrying about nothing. If we're good enough, we'll win.

Ugh. Saturday?

Don't worry.


They will be talking up the Magic really soon.  They need viewers to tune in.

I'm in full agreement.. I hate how analysts are already trying to break down a Celtics vs Lakers matchup.  The ultimate prize may be the championship trophy, but all eyes have to be on wins 3 and 4 of this series.  As tough as the Celtics have fought, they still only have 1/2 of the wins necessary in this series to advance to the finals.

I really hope this extended layoff ends up helping the Celtics.

It will definitely do Perkin's knee some good.

This is exactly what I was thinking. TP.
