I picked the Celtics to reach the Finals before the season started but, with Rondo out and the Heat playing at the highest level for any pro sports team I can remember, I will go with the Heat to win it all. However, can you honestly imagine the Knicks beating the Celtics even once in this series at TD Garden? Celtics will certainly win at least 1 at MSG. Basketball-wise, JET is being slept on as far as clutchness (got a Celtics championship tattoo) and Jeff Green is the perfect defender to limit Melo. Boston will be playing these games for the marathon victims. It is a perfect storm.
