I'm not worried about Miami at all... even with how up and down this team has been all season.

Yeah, I think they will.  Outside of Wade, the Miami team just isn't that good.  Wade is amazing, of course, but I think that if the Celts play as a team, they'll win in 5 or 6.

It will be tough, but does it matter? They will lose in the second round anyway.

They should be able to beat them.

But how many other team's have we thought the Celtics should be able to beat this season?

Anything really is possible with this Celtics team...going all the way to the ECF (maybe even the Finals), or getting bounced in 6 games in the first round.
Never forget the Champs of '08, or the gutsy warriors of '10.

I expect them to finish the Heat in 5 games which means the series will go 7.

That's why we play the games.  Everyone thought that the Magic were going to get sacrificed by the Cavs last year and how did that turn out.

Sure it matters! Winning matters! If the Celtics fall, I want them to go down fighting.

If Rose goes for a career high 39. Whats Wade going to be able to do?  This first round series wont be a cakewalk.

Hope TA is ready to go in the playoffs cause our perimeter defense was weak tonight.

Can the Celtics beat Miami? Yes. However, based on recent playoff performances and this past season, this sucker is going to go seven games.

Sure they can, but the same can be said for Miami beating us.

I see the series going 7 games, and I wouldn't consider the Celtics a favorite.

If we make it to the second round, we'll probably be overwhelmed by the Cavs.
