That houston one was hilarious. Smart got in Harden's head bad.

Are you more confident or less confident in the Celtics' chances to beat the Cavs than you were at the beginning of the playoffs?

Neither team looked very impressive before the 2nd round began, but both teams seem to have stepped it up. If you had told me before the playoffs that we were going to end up facing the Cavs, I would have felt pretty good about our chances and maybe called it a toss-up at worst.

But the recent have started swinging me towards the concern that the Brad Stevens Butler Cinderella magic isn't going to work on Lebron.

With home court advantage i won't rule it out but it'll be much harder than the bucks and 76ers.

I didn't even think we'd beat the 76ers though so what do i know. This team playing on a whole new level, especially Al myself, Tatum, Brown, Smart, Rozier.

I feel that way, but I'm not sure to what extent.

How possible is it that the Celtics young core could actually IMPROVE over the course of 11 playoff games and become a better team than what their regular season statistics indicate? If that is possible, then it might be happening.

But it seems just as likely that Lebron will come to Boston, remind us who this conference belongs to and put a quick halt to all this momentum.

Couldn't be happier with this season. Win win for me now (assuming we take care of the 76ers), either get to see my team in the finals or see LeBron lose in the finals back to back years. Win win.

Props to embiid for even challenging tatumgod at the rim. He has balls (but lacks brains)
