Celtics in 5

I feel very confident it'll be a comfortable series for the most part. Knicks can certainly score a lot more than the Magic but their defense will feel "kindergarten-level" compared to the Magic too

Celtics in 6. Between our injuries and the Knicks offense being able to capitalize on games where the Celtics "go cold" -- I think 6 is my prediction.

yeah....C's in 4 or 5.

nobody could take us 6 or 7 last year. we destroyed them all.

I expect the same at least this series. Then it will get tough in ECF. probably much tougher than last year.
LET'S GO CELTICS!

Celtics in 6.

I think we will lose Game 1; no way in hell the Knicks are losing 5 in a row to Boston this year...playoffs are a different environment. We're also due for a home-loss anyway.

A friend of mine said playing Brunson for a series could be a good prep for SGA in the Finals lol  :P

I?ve been trying to think of a way that the Cs could lose 2, since saying ?Celtics in 5? almost feels a bit arrogant. But I can?t, so Celtics in five.

Celtics will protect home court in the playoffs this year better then they did in the regular season. Celtics in 5.

I was hoping you would say Knicks in 6 to do your usual reverse jinx on us  :police:

I agree we lose G1 too, I think they will come in overconfident and get a rude shock, then come back in G2.

C's in 5.

They could sweep NY if their heads were screwed on right.

This is a wild thing to put into the world after round 1.

(I misclicked and voted Knicks in 5 rather than C's in five, if anyone is wondering where that vote came from).

Celtics in 5. Knicks are soft.

And no, the Cs are not losing game one at home.

Detroit gave the series away by not being able to close in the last 3 minutes of the 4th quarter in 3 of their losses. Knicks very fortunate to move on.

Picked C's in 5 in the playoff prediction thread.  sticking with it.  Only way they don't finish them in 5 is if Jrue and Jaylen both miss multiple games.   Expecting Zinger to dramatically improve his play this round
