It's most likely to be Denver and Boston in the finals as they are both the most well constructed and talented teams and this is coming from an OKC Thunder fan. They both play solid basketball and are very well coached also.

The Celtics are the only team with the prototype to do it imo. Everyone else it’ll require more luck than execution to win (Denver misses shots, injury, or you shoot 50% from 3 for a whole series like Miami did to teams last year) You have to gaurd Jokic 1 on 1, you can’t double. What he wants to do is pass, so that’s what you have to prevent. If he scores 40 or more in a game, you’re actually statistically more likely to win than if he scores less than 40 because that means he’s trying to carry the offense because people aren’t getting open. The Celtics have all the individual defenders necessary to be able to do this, and their offense is so loaded that they should be capable of not only keeping up with Denver, but putting up a huge lead on them if Denver struggles on offense. Do I think they’ll do it? Idk. Denver and specifically Jokic have the “it”factor where you know they’re gonna show up every night. Idk if I can say the same about Boston, however on paper Boston is just as hard to guard as Denver is. Idk if Denver has a better defense than Boston.

"How are they going to respond in games when the 3's aren't falling?" is definitely the biggest question for the Celtics in this playoff run. That is the one thing that scares me the most about them (as a Celtics fan), but all they have to do is get to the freaking paint. Tatum and Brown are All-Stars & are great at generating points in the paint/shooting the mid-range jumper, Porzingus is freaking 7'3", can score down low/shoot anywhere on the court, Derrick White is pretty damn good at getting to the rim/shooting the mid-ranger as well, and Jrue Holiday is no freaking stiff offensively either as the 5th option. When the 3's aren't falling, the Celtics have more than enough talent to make it work down low/score some 2-point jump shots. It's just a matter of making that in-game adjustment instead of ride-or-dying on the 3's that could end up costing them a title. But this team has been very good, and I'm confident they learned some lessons from last year and make those in-game adjustments this go-round. At least I hope they did 😂😂

@@timgimmy609 yeah it’s a problem when Marcus Smart and Grant Williams are taking the 3’s. The Celtics have 5 guys that shoot 40% or better from 3 and outside of Jaylen no one shoots worse than 37%. Celtics went from having a bench that couldn’t score to a bench that can bomb 6 3’s in 2 minutes and open the game up to a 20 point lead. Last year there were multiple stretches in the regular season where no one on the Celtics could hit a 3. They haven’t even come close to doing that this year. The odd game here or there where the 3’s don’t fall but the next game they shoot 50% collectively. You simply can not guard everyone on this team someone is going to be open for 3 and if they’re open these guys are gonna hit them

Shaq and a lot of other commentators are still comparing this Celtic team to the previous teams. Porzingas and Holiday along with the bench make this a completely different team. Porzingas led the league in points on postups. Tatum, Brown, Holiday, and White post up smaller players. just lazy commentary.

Shaw’s comments are based on teams from previous years. Celtics shoot and make a lot of 3s because they have good to great shooters. But their offense is based on ball movement that leads to wide open 3s. But they score in a variety of ways. No weaknesses

Denver is just as good if not better. They will be a tough matchup for Boston.

Any one team is much less likely to win the chip than "the field". Especially in a year like this when 6-8 teams are seen to have a good to outside (but realistic) chance to win it.

As a Celtics fan I feel Denver’s tandem of Jokic and Murray is better than Tatum and Brown. That said, Boston is deeper with the remaining starters and bench. Mazzulla needs to make sure close games don’t come down to Tatum or Brown dribbling 20 times in isolation before heaving up a last second shot. Denver would have the advantage in a tight game as Jokic seems to always make the right decision. No guaranty either or both teams make the finals but would love to see it happen.
