I expect game 1 to be a blowout, though it could be either team doing the blowing out.

Celts in 5.  Miami is really going to need some hot shooting nights to take it further.

C's prob drop Game 1 due to an exhausting series. That's prob the game we can afford coasting. But fully expect us to steal Game 2. But if they show resilience, maybe they steal two games on the road  ;D

tough call.  a lot depends on the availability of Timelord (and his effectiveness) and Lowry.   head says Heat in 7 -- they're tough and battle tested.  heart says C's in 6.  Heat didn't win the division and get to the ECF without being a really good team

home court for Miami.  Bam and Jimmy have been doing well in the playoffs and are tough for us to deal with.  add in Herro and Robinson bombing from outside, it's not going to be a cakewalk for the C's. 

on the plus side, they don't have anyone on the same level as Durant, Kyrie or Giannis to contend with but they are genuine "team".

Boston sweep.

If we'd had the same amount of rest as they had, I'd say the same.

That's legit the only reason I'm saying Boston in 6; we're going straight into a well rested Miami.

We've been pretty good at handling Butler relatively. Lowry is hurt, who is the guy I would have been most worried about. Adebayo has struggled against us this season. Robinson doesn't even really play - it's Herro & Strus who might hurt us from deep, but not with how our defence has played.

If Rob is healthy I think this is over in 4 or 5. If he misses games I think we win in 6

Key is Rob. Much more important in this series that we have him.

Other key X factor is Oladipo, who is finally healthy and improves their perimeter defense.

Assuming Rob healthy, Celtics in 6.
