Plan C

[BballTim]

I am not sure why everyone is so confident that the Celtics will beat the cavs in the playoffs if healthy.  The Celtics barely got past the Cavs last year and the Cavs are a completely different team this year.  Delonte, Wally and Ben have all been playing together for over a year now as compared to a couple of months like last year.  Mo Williams is a completely different player than Wally (remember, he started for the Cavs last year).  The Cavs are a completely different team.  Plus the Cavs will have home court.  The Celtics may be 2-1 against the Cavs this year but come talk to me when one of these teams beats the other one on the road.

As for KG coming off the bench, I am okay with Andy guarding him and holding his own.

  The Celts improved as the playoffs went on last year.

I just realized my post seemed very Cavs biased.  My point was that I am now confident the Cavs can beat the Celtics in the playoffs, the teams are just too close talent wise.  I am surprised that Celtic fans don't feel the same way

Wow, you really believe that sideshow bob can handle KG, even at 70%, one on one? I don't even think he could handle Glen Davis at this point.

What are you surprised about?  That Celtics fans don't immediately roll over and concede the title to Cleveland?  Again, we're 2-1 against you this season.  I see no reason to believe that a healthy Celtics team can't beat the Cavs.

Did I tell you to roll over and concede?  Nope, just thought you might realize what a threat the Cavs could be.  But, since you refuse to get past your bias, maybe you can answer these questions?  Who will have home court advantage in a playoff series between these two teams this year?  After you answer that, why don't you tell me the last time the road team won a game between these two teams?

You obviously don't watch Andy play defense then.

Cleveland has a lot of great momentum going right now. If I had to pick a 2009 champ today, it would be Cleveland. I'm really impressed with how hard that team goes every night.

...of course in 1-2 months momentum can change... and injuries can happen. Its gonna be a heck of a post season. The Celtic defeats of LA and CLE last year has ignited Kobe and Lebron in a freakish way.

didn't boston score 52 points in the paint WITHOUT KG vs the cavs?

I don't think anybody has ever watched Andy play defense

I agree with you. Teams are too close and everything can happen. I've also said through the season that people here were overlooking how much the Cavs changed as a team from last year. Anyway, I think a lot will depend on how healthy the teams are.

I have, i just question if rampant flopping is defense.

and yes, i have questions about number 0 on our team as well.

I posted this over two weeks ago and everyone said I was over-reacting.  I think I was pretty dead on, unfortunately.
