Celtics-Heat had a great rivalry in 2011-2012 (obv Heat won both) but the series were still good. I wish, however, that we would've been able to see the Celtics big 3 in their prime vs. the Heat big 3 who were in their prime during 2011-2012. Celtics were much older at this point and still went to game 7, hella impressive tbh.

[@deebo228]

Honestly even the 2008 Celtics against the 2012 Heat wouldn’t be that good because KG was at the end of his prime Paul Pierce was 30 and Ray Allen was 32. However, if u put KG when he was in Minnesota, Paul Pierce when he was averaging 25 ppg and a prime Ray Allen with a rising Rondo. I think the Celtics have a good chance of winning because they pushed the Heat to 7 games at 34, 35 years old, imagine if they were in their prime.

They have to keep up the narrative that LeBron only won because of LeBron. LeBron never won anything without at least another All Star on his team. Even his first stint at Cleveland he had Williams, who was one of the best shooters in the league, and Ilgauskas yet his fans will continue to say LeBron had no help at Cleveland. Hell, they'll even say his Miami team wasn't great... But that's what they have to say to save face from the disgrace that was LeBron's 2011 finals performance.
