Celtics in 5

But I do think it'll be a close, competitive series. Some close games probably. Not super easy

I really want to see the C's come out and dominate. This needs to be a sound 4 or 5 game series. It will be annoying series because Orlando will mug all game but their offense should be keep the C's in every game. I picked 5, shouldn't go longer then that unless they play with their food. I trust that they know better these days though.

I think it'll be a physical series. Orlando has great defense and size advantage. Expect them to outrebound us on the boards.

Celtics in 6. Boston wins game 1 but lose their annual game 2. We steal game 3 while Orlando takes Game 4. We blow 'em out in Game 5 and clinch the series in 6 in a close win.

Orlando plays physical so doubtful any blowouts but C's will likely come out flat in a home game as they usually do.  probably game 2

I think 5.  We're good for a clunker where Orlando hits most of their threes but I don't think they can hang with us over a whole series.  Not enough consistent firepower. 

I might feel differently if they still had Suggs - I think he's the soul of that team and I like him a lot - but they also probably wouldn't be a 7 seed in that case.

I'm picking 6. I think we will drop 2 games due to our own ineptitude  :angel:

Van Gundy had a good point last night. If they can hit their threes, they are as dangerous as anyone in the league. They are the 2nd best defense, but are 29th in the league at shooting 3s. I assume he meant 3pt%, but I'm unsure.

I think if we close out properly, the Magic's offense will really struggle to score on us.

I?m at Cs in 6. We?ll have at least one ?unforced error? loss. These guys are not who I wanted in the first round. They always play us tough and our 3s haven?t been falling against them. Ultimately, though, the better team wins.

C's odds to win the series is -8000 lol dang (Magic around +1800)

Lot of other series are around +200 to -200

Just got my tickets to Game 3.

I've attended two Celtics playoff games in my life.  One was in 2008 and the other was last year.  You do the math, but I suggest you get ready for duckboats.

Celtics in 5.  We'll have at least one bad game where we're cold from 3 and not playing up to our standards as a whole.  We can win even if we don't shoot well, but it's difficult to sweep anyone in a playoff series.

C's in 5. Gentleman's sweep

Magic can't score and they won't be able to hide Cole Anthony and Black on defense.

Game 1: W
Game 2: W
Game 3: L
Game 4: W
Game 5 W
