Really think you guys are getting all hot and bothered over who the Cs play for nothing. All three teams are worse than the Celtics, the Cs have home court, and no team really has great match up advantages versus the Cs.

The other thing is I don't think the players or coaches care in the least who they play. They care more about when they play, Saturday or Sunday. Really think fans overthink these things. I don't think the teams care nearly as much if at all where they finish 6th, 7th, or 8th, so long as they get that extra day to rest and prepare.

Uh oh, Washington went on a run and now just down 1 at the end of the 3rd.

Miami on a run and they now trail TOR by only 2.

At this point we gotta hope Toronto holds on and wins. Think WAS wins.

Disagree. The Wiz would be a terrible match up for Boston.

No Kyrie, no Marcus, and obviously no Gordon. Washington makes me nervous. On paper, they have more healthy talent.

Wiz will either get on a run or flame out. Think they just have too much talent and would love playing Boston. It would get them engaged and focused. Do not see Boston winning that series.

Man, the more I watch them, the more I'm unsure if I prefer the Bucks or the Heat. Originally I said the Heat, but they're just so well-coached, athletic, and defensive-minded that it could be a rough one, too.

Not going to matter. It is going to be Washington...which is the worst match up for Boston. Cs struggle in DC...Beal and Wall will have big series.
