The Celtics are locked in rn. They the only team left with crazy playoff experience and star players that have went deep into the playoffs every year and are just entering their prime
@@AmazingXpectationz1982 even u don’t believe that💀 so it took the pacers 7 games and the greatest shooting performance in playoff history to beat a injured knicks team but they gonna beat the Celtics in 6?…😂😂
Most don’t understand how important rest is over the course of these 8-10 weeks of playoffs. Minnesota looks great, but if the Cs come in with 30% more rest days, it makes a big difference deep into a series. Fatigue builds and builds. 1 day barely reduces any fatigue, and most importantly this fatigue is cumulative. The Pacers are gonna have a real tough time recovering.
Don't underestimate the Pacers. They have a deep bench and, unlike the undermanned Heat (without Butler) and injury-battered Cavs, are mostly healthy (without only Mathurin). And remember that the C's will be without Porzingis. So expect this series to go to 7.
And let’s look at Dallas this year, played an injured clippers team into the youngest 1 seed in NBA history, with pretty much ZERO playoff experience. But it’s only us who gets talked about in this light lol
Because everybody hates Boston 😂 and many people will get upset when they win it all this year so they are bandwagoning to the opposing teams😂 The celtics been knocking on that door for years now ,they are due 😂 accept it
NBA wants Indiana, they're the easiest opponent for Minnesota and fake Jordan. That's why they got Dallas in the conference finals, so Minnesota has home court advantage.
Celtics fan. I would have much rather been playing the beatup knicks than a deep, well coached, fast paced Pacers team. Celtics in 6 or 7 is my prediction.
We haven’t been challenged in the playoffs yet. I hope the Pacer do present a challenge. It’ll be good for us. But honestly, we should destroy the Pacers in 4 or 5. 🏀
They wrote off the Pacers all year. This is going to be a really hard series for Boston. Not a 5 game series. It might even be an upset stretched to 7 games. The Pacers have and can beat them.
@@Peacekeepa317 i would say being able to stop two 25 ppg scorers is pretty relevant but ok. Truth of the matter is Pacers cant defend especially not the best offense in the league. Good luck tho.
@@yaboytroy4557 the Pacers are actually the league's best offense and you're clearly just repeating a narrative. Google how far the Pacers defense has advanced with the addition of Siakam and the growth of Neismith and Nemhard. You're just repeating other people. Same biased media who's been wrong about the Pacers all year.
@@yaboytroy4557 the season series between the 2 teams is even if you count the IST. Everybody on the Pacers roster has had multiple 25 point games this year under the best facilitator in the league. You don't understand the concept of team ball. 25 + 25 is 50. Against a team averaging 123 a game. Giannis scored 60 on us one night if I'm not mistaken. The Pacers STILL won
Im a super duper lifetime hardcore C’s fan, but I don’t think this series is going to go 5 games. PP is underestimating the Pacers offensive firepower. They play no defense but the pace with which they play is insane. This series will go 6 games with the C’s winning it.
I’m from Indiana and I think the Celtics in 6 Our offense and depth is great and the pace we play is tough to adjust to but our rebounding and defense will be the downfall
I agree the bigs matchup is worse for Boston, BUT horford is on good rest and I can see Tillman getting some useful run. The forwards and guards are tilted pretty heavily in favor or Boston. pacers bench is better rn, but Prichard and Hauser both have a 5-7 3PT game in them.
@@Peacekeepa317Lmaoo bro you all in these comments being delusional af 😂😂 Yall BARELY beat the Knicks gtfoh 🚮 I’ll be back here to troll when yall get smacked 4-1 next 🤣🤣🤣
@@ynlentertainment44 I ain't tripping. We all seen shit like Jalen Brown giving TJ McConnell a Mortal Kombat uppercut in midair. With no flagrant 😂. We'll be back next season
TJ McConnell vs. Payton Pritchard match up is going to be interesting. Cs might have trouble down low without KP but as a whole I still think that the Cs can and should pull it off with all the experience they got on their side.
@@TCGexclusive all im saying is u can't base anything off regular season cause indiana is playing at a higher level. Anybody who watches them actually play can see this
@@TCGexclusive you're not wrong but pacers have zero pressure. They're expected to get swept by most people. Most don't understand what it's like to play this indy offense . All five starters can score They're running all game they put pressure and let's be honest this isn't a young Boston team. Jrue been in league for awhile horford is old. So can they run with this indiana team consistently
As if an inexperienced team has never won before 😂 As if youth is something that magically prevents you from winning. They just won a game 7 in MSG and set a playoff record. Easy path my ass. Prove it
Ain't no juice on a winning bet Key 👌... -1250 is a lot. Big money. They also said that when GSW was favored over the Clippers in KD's first go around. Vegas gladly taking them 1k to win 7k series bets. Probably a little more reluctant to take a big fish wager of $125k to win $10k.
Don't be suprised if without Porzingis, the Celtics lay an egg with Brown and Tatum against the Pacers. This is going 7 and it won't be as easy as Paul Pierce thinks.
Comparing the heat series last year to this series against the pacers is a little disingenuous. They had just went 7 with that same heat team the year before and was the 3rd conference finals in 4 years against the 2. This pacers team doesn't have that kind of history or experience against the Celtics to make that comparison
The Pacers haven’t lost a home game since March 16th. If the Pacers get a game in Boston while Porzingis is out I think this series is going to go 6 or 7
