I,___RAcker___, believe wholeheartedly that the Boston Celtics can beat the Cleveland Cavaliers in a seven game playoff series, especially with a healthy Kevin Garnett.

And I still say that if we are 100% or close to it in terms of health.  We win in 6.

we are 2 and 2 against them for the season and 1 and 2 without KG. Kevin puts us over the edge... the Celtics in 6.

If you sign the statement, you will get a TP. Therefore:



I,___GroverTheClover___, believe  that the Boston Celtics can beat the Cleveland Cavaliers in a seven game playoff series, especially with a healthy Kevin Garnett.

However, I would not be surprised if the Cavaliers won the series without going to Game 7 even if Kevin Garnett is healthy.

TP.

And TP.

Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

I wholeheartedly believe that Miami will beat Cleveland in the 2nd round and we won't get to see a 7 game series against them this year.

D Wade is just on a different level right now, and he will be anxious to take it to Lebron after losing out to him in the MVP voting.  The Heat have looked very balanced since the JO/SM trade, imho.

Check everyone out on the main page freaking out over Garnett not playing these last 2 games.  I could have called this a week ago.

THIS DOES NOT MEAN that he's done for the year.  Let me declare right now, knowing I will get a bunch of comebacks from doubters saying I'm crazy, but I think that Ainge, Doc and the whole organization has been setting a smokescreen for a month or more now.

KG will be somewhere near 100%, even though swelling will probably occur post-games.  Leon will be the same way.  We sweep the first round and win in 6 in round 2.  We face the Cavs in the ECF and whether we win one of the first two or not, we win in 6.  Game 5 is where we unleash wrath for yesterday's nonsense.

Mark this date!  RAcker has spoken.

To take your theory one more step, do you think it's possible that management saw that KG could play at a high level on a limited basis coming back from a long layoff in the 4 game stint before he went back on the shelf?

Yup

What does this sentence exactly mean? Is it supposed to be understood literally? That Boston can beat Cleveland in the playoffs? Well, of course they can - but that's just stating the obvious. Almost every playoffs team can beat another one - all it's needed are 4 good nights. The C's can beat the Cavs, the Cavs can beat the Cs, the Cavs can beat the Pistons, the Pistons can beat the Cavs, the Bulls can beat the C's, and so on.

Why start a thread to state the uber-obvious? Or are people confident the Celtics will beat the Cavs? That would be worthy of discussion.
