Knicks over Celtics for the series

[sparkyasu]

put some $$$ on it

[CanuckG]

Ballsy

[onetrickpony]

why?

[forsberg21]

Not a chance.

[JACK MATZ]

perfect set up for the Knicks. Boston is on a downslide.
Knicks will roll.

[jjgold]

Definitely although are they playing each other??

[dfberger23]

As a Knicks fan who watches a lot of games....no, just no.

Celtics 4-1, Knicks have no chance.

I agree knicks will beat them. The celts won't be able to keep up with them. Let's go Knicks. **** the celts.

You are a stupid amateur if you think the Knicks have any chance. Here is a clue for you stupid amateur's that think you are PRO's because SBR says you are, the series that the media tells you will be a upset is usually not the one that will be a upset, remember the NCAA tourny and all the 1st round upsets they had pegged? They were not the upsets.

[rem sleep]

The Celtics will win fairly easily. Playoff basketball is different than regular season basketball and the Celtics are one of the best at playing halfcourt offense and defense.

loooong time knicks fan and im not convinced we will win the series but thats the one upset i see possibly coming out of the east, Boston is gonna be a tough out, but deep down i think we can out run and out score them. maybe i will drop a lil change on the series...should be a tight one

haha Belmont!!!!

[Eating Bookies]

how about no.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

Celtics should be able to handle the Knicks; Miami will crush them, however.

[hoya]

The games might be close, but Pierce and KG love sticking to the Knicks with big shots late in games. Celtics take it in 5 or 6.

[iQon]

Good one.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Like it.

[ThaTopMoron]

Knicks will win a game at home... so put some on them for game 3, and chase in game 4 if needed, if BOS is up 3-0, they will take game 4 easy... and try to win by just shooting jumpers and hope the Knicks give up.

Knicks to win series is 95% suicide bet.

[louvega71]

dont waste your money

[muldoon]

I don't normally buy into the idea of teams tanking or playing soft to rest up - but not with the Celtics.

[top310]

nope

[BookiesBernanke]

Beating the Boston Celtics begins and ends with defense - a term not even used in D'Antonio's game plan

[frostno98]

I wouldn't take the Knicks over anyone with that defense. They only beaten the Pacers last night by outscoring them and watching the Pacers self implode in the end. If you can't play defense, you will not win many playoff games.

[mr.inpak]

no chance you have to play defense in the playoffs the knicks cant stop anybody

[BettingWizard]

carmelo chokes against good defensive teams in the playoffs

[biggamer3]

Celtics are too old and slow, like Knicks to make it a series

[Philphan]

Have you ever watched the Knicks try to play defense?

[clip1]

Celtics own the knicks they will be lucky to win one

[jsmithj88]

hmm, the problem is this is not the same celtics team
but i fully expect them to beat NY

[ManBearPig]

I got Boston with about an 82% chance to win this series so what's that about -440 odds...not even worth the risk, but GL.

[robotralph]

Knicks have hit a nice stride right when they need to, so it is gonna be tough for the celtics. To me this has to be the toughest first round series along mavs-blazers and thunder-nuggets. (if standings hold up)

[frostno98]

carmelo chokes against good defensive teams in the playoffs

The Nuggets were the 2nd highest scoring team twice in the NBA next to the Suns in 2005 and 2006 led by Melo. Both times they faced a defensive minded Spurs team and got shut down twice. Winning only two games out of eight tries.

[rsnnh12]

Celtics and Bulls will break out their 2-3 zone sets in the playoffs, stuff that no one has seen from them yet this year. With Shaq, KG, and Pierce near the bucket, the Knicks are going to be in trouble. They're going to need to shoot lights out to get by the Cs
