Talent wise it feel like it should be Celtics in 4, but when you have a team who shoots as many threes as the Celtics you always have to factor in the possibility that they just have one really bad shooting luck game and it goes 5.

Anything over 5 would be a disappointment given that Embiid is out and Maxey does not look 100%.

Its important to close these series fast to avoid grinding your own guys down in a long postseason.

Seems like its on target to go roughly how I thought it would. 76ers had their one shooting luck game, Celtics seem poised to finish it in 5.

I think the quick turnaround time benefits us.

I picked 4 before the series, but 5 is fine. If this goes past 5 it is an issue.

Starters - Luka, JB, Lebron, Wemby, Shaq
Rotation - D. Daniels, Mitchell, G. Wallace, Melo, Noah

Celtics in 6. A team not to be underestimated led by Nick Nurse. Gonna split the home games and close them out in Philly.

Welp this is still in play, but didn't anticipate Boston blowing back2back home games. Then again, nothing should surprise me anymore with this team.

I feel like the 76ers have momentum and edge to force Game 7 here. May become one of the biggest choke-jobs in Celtics history

I picked them in 5.

6 is okay. Disappointing but okay.

I wouldn't mind them losing the next game and seeing a Game 7. This series has been a snooze fest so far. Game 7. Do or die. Up the intensity / energy. Give me some entertainment.

I think we should take it in 5 but we will play bad in one game so in 6.
Well we played two bad games so six  ;D
