I thought the Celtics would be better than this ... I know they go to Boston for 2, and they "should" Win those games. But The Heat looks like they have their A-Game going on right now.

The celtics are done! Danny A. really sqrewed the pooch!!! The trade killed this team. They have no inside presents and no flow as a team. He also took the life out of the team removing daniels and robinson. It is really to bad for the big three as this was there last run at it and danny fucked them hard! Danny made one of the best moves when he brought ray and kevin in. But flushed it all done the toliet. I am a loyal celts fan in the ups and downs over the last 25 years. They are done might go 5 , but a sweep is possable!^<<^^<<^^<<^##)##)##)

The Heat do have their A game going right now. But things can change quickly. Its a big hole but I believe the Celts have more fight in them and I would be surprised not to see this series go 7.

If the Celtics were healthy I'd give them a shot at taking 2 here in Boston - but they do not appear to be a healthy team.

teams that lose the first 2 games go on to lose the series 94% of the time = big trouble.

I hate when people say the trade killed this team... They needed wing players to compliment Pierce and Allen. When the trade was made both hit a stretch where they were playing close to 40 minutes a night. Throw in the fact in the playoffs you were going to face Anthony,James, Wade, Joe JOhnson ETC and you needed to get another wing player to defend.
Ainge realized a problem and tried to fix it. Daniels got hurt and was out for the year and RObinson had 5 good games in a year and half. How about James and Wade are just really good and dominating this series to date?? People in Boston make Perkins out to be the second coming of Wilt Chamberlain!!!

They are in trouble. Could see this over in 5 o 6.

If Miami is playing well they should beat this team and there really is no answer for them when the Heat play like this.

Am I the only one who thinks Jeff Green is essentially useless? Big Baby brings nothing either (so far).

As of now, the Heat have held serve at home. The real key IMHO is the Celtic injuries. Paul Pierce has an akillies injury. If he can't go, the Celtics have little chance to win 4 out of 5 games. Rondo has back spasms and Allen has a bruised chest. No question the Heat have upgraded their level of play, however in Game 2 the Celtics were leading until Pierce got hurt. The Heat definitely have a strong advantage at the moment but let's see if the 4 days between Games 2 & 3 helps the Celtics get healthy.

Celtics not in trouble if they hold serve and win games 3 & 4 at home.
