I rather play the Nets over that Bucks team. I think that the Nets have more raw talent but also a lot more question marks.

I’d prefer the Bucks.  You’ve just got to hope that they choke like they did last season.

I don’t want any part of having to watch Kyrie.

You should make a poll as it seems to be the day of dumb polls  ;D

But I guess yes you may be the only one... First I prefer loose against Bucks. Second I already hate Kirie proud face when they'll beat us. And finally I think we have good match ups ag Bucks but not at all ag healthy Nets (even if I still feel something wrong will happen to them and they won't win).

Doesn't matter. Can't beat either of those teams.

Probably not but we still have to play the games. The Celtics have won a lot of playoff series that on paper they shouldn't have won.


Go Celtics!!!

I think you might be one of the few. Losing to the Bucks is a lot less miserable.

I won't be more miserable if we lose to one team over another team.

I personally think that the Bucks team is the best team in the East. I'm not sold on the Nets or The Sixers. The Bucks look like the team best built for the playoffs of the three but time will tell.


I'm picking the Bucks vs the Jazz finals.

Losing to the Bucks would be better than losing to any New York teams or Philadelphia.

If we have a championship or bust philosophy it really doesn't matter who we play, since we're not getting to the championship anyway  :angel:

Celts are losing either way; I'd rather they lose to the Bucks.  I actually like the Bucks.  I hope they come out of the East.

That would be a great series.  I'm really hoping the Jazz can carry over their great regular season to the playoffs this year.  Would love to see them go all the way.

Yeah, the Jaylen injury ended any possibility of us going all the way. Has a team ever lost one of their top 2 players and won the Title? Just going to keep watching Cs games this season until there are no more left to watch.

Any team but the Lakers to win it all.  Once the Cs are out of contention, I really don't care much.  It's the same with baseball, any team but the Yankees.

For me it’s 100% worse losing to Kyrie and the Nets over the Bucks or 76ers.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.
