Those are some crazy analytics.  But seriously, if we were to sweep the Wizards, would you believe they had a decent chance of beating the Cavs?  I'd honestly give them a shot.

If an injury happens to one of their Big 3 then I love that decent chance much more.

You mean from our resident enforcer...KO?  ;D

The Celtics have won FIVE straight postseason games.

That's happened for the fifth time in the franchise's history.

The previous four occasions, the Celtics made the NBA Finals each time

I think it's a sign...  ;D  ;)

Reminds me of how the Celtics had never lost an NBA Finals Game 7 ... until they lost in Game 7 of the 2010 Finals. :-\

How's that for positivity? ;D

Well I mean, if they even just *make* the NBA Finals this season, that's a huge success.

Would be a sad loss, yes, BUT shows this team is just about getting there, just a piece or two away.

I mean, it's not a far fetched thing.

I'm convinced if Bogut didn't go down, the Warriors win the Finals, even with Draymond suspended Game 5.

If one of the Cavs Big 3 (even Irving or Love) go down to injury, then that team is vulnerable even with LBJ. The Cavs defense is really not good. Raptors offense just sucked last night.

Now I'm not at all rooting for an injury. But an injury would definitely make the playoffs a whole lot more wide open.
