U can just tell. It's their time.

Lol I knew this when the playoffs started. Teams like Milwaukee/Toronto/philly aren’t used to playoff atmosphere. There’s a reason why Celtics were heavy favorite to come out the east

What are you talking about...Toronto has made the playoffs like 5 years in a row. And the new star on the team is a finals mvp. Plus Philly and the bucks got playoff experience last year.

If they win tonight it’s going to make it a lot easier although Philadelphia 76ers looked tough too

so much recency bias, the celtics won one game and were the best team ever
now everyone will jump off the bandwagon because they got whipped one game

Of course they can make playoffs 5 years in a row. You see how bad the east is? I’m saying they never make it far in playoffs..EVER

No I believe they'll beat the bucks and the raptors/Sixers winner.
It's their time. Full of talent. Two straight years to conf finals. Excellent coach.
It's their time.

you can probably get +800 on winning the east after that performance tonight
they will probably have to win all 3 games in boston because it's gonna be tough to win again in milwaukee

Everyone gets so freakin reactionary after every damn game. As someone who liked and still do Boston to win series I hated how everyone jumped on them after gm1. Kinda glad they got smoked tonight cause now the peanut gallery will jump back on Bucks.
Don’t make any sense to change your opinion after every single game cause the way one goes has pretty much nothing to do with the next. Both good coaches so after their team gets smoked obviously they will make adjustments, do you really think Bucks role players will have as good of games in Boston like they did tonight? You think kyrie will only score 9 next game?? Of course not. Don’t be a prisoner of the moment, whomever you liked before series started there very little reason to change at this point .

Perhaps they will make it or perhaps they won't, but please stop talking about a "great pick" when the final is still very far away.

Jtoler, preseason as someone here mentioned, they were a HUGE fave to win the east.
when the playoffs started a few weeks ago, the faves to win the east were Milwaukee and Toronto. Boston was a distant third.
well guess what? the top 4 seeds in the East advanced and to pick them right now when they started the series vs Milwaukee as +270ish dogs is not a weak or easy prediction !!

This year’s Boston team has not put up enough strong consecutive efforts against great teams to inspire much confidence in a finals run.
Toronto is the best team in the East imo. Lowry is their weak link though.

wow I know they had everyone back but -101 seems kind of generous but I guess maybe thats about right with no lebron to wreck the show. kyrie gets hurt every year at some point it seems in 8 seasons he's never played more than 72 games only 67 this year. still gotta get thru bucks and raptors or sixers
