It’s going to be a good series. I got the Celtics but it’s close. They been playing down to their competition in these playoffs and it happens. No motivation and think they should win easily due to players being injured. When Portzingus comes back, that should really unlock their whole offense to another level.

If Kyrie cooks Holiday, that’s it imo. No player on the Celtics has a chance to guard Kyrie. You can throw bodies at Brown and Tatum and slow them down. Dallas in 6.
