    If Denver can play defense like this, they might beat the Heat down. But my money is on Spoelstra. He will find a way to figure out Denver.

    Is this like when the announcer says the foul shooter has hit 10? in a row and they inevitably miss. You gentlemen may have single handedly cursed the Heat. I'll take the under -280 if C's win. Maybe I just did the same to the C's?

    Afre there any series prices out yet for Boston-Denver?

    I'd guess Boston -140 due to home court.

    Boston will be dangerous if they make it

    They would feel like a team of destiny.

    2004 Idiots were Kevin Millar's "Cowboy up" Red Sox.

    Johnny Damon gets credit for labeling his team "Idiots" (tongue in cheek) because they were too stupid to believe they couldn't overcome everything they accomplished that season.

    Most think the word 'redux' is of French origin, but in reality it's Latin for 'to revive', 'revisit', or 'restore'.
    (in that vein)

    Like the 2004 "idiot" Red Sox, the 2023 Celtics were also down 0-3 in a best of seven series.
    Ergo, my statement "2004 Idiots redux"

    Does this explain my position?

    Assuming Celts win Gm7, I'll give my estimates for the Den/Bos finals:

    *Gm1: Boston -3
    *Gm3: Denver -5
    *Series: Denver -120

    No great math on this. I just think Denver has shown they'll be a tough out. Nuggets have only lost a few games this post-season, and 2 of the 3 were in games where Booker shot the lights out.
