i know it's the regular season, but the celtics took 3 of 4 from the heat this yr.

the heat played all but one of those games WITH bosh too. (that was the last game where both teams sat out their starters)

don't give me the wade/bron will tire them out shite. the reg season was almost scheduled like a playoff series anyway. back-to-backs were common place this yr.

Meh, last season the Celtics were either 4-0 or 3-1 in the regular season against the Heat then lost in 5 games in the play offs.

true, but KG wasn't playin nearly as well as he is this yr in the playoffs. with bosh out, he will abuse whoever guards him.

avery bradley bein out will hurt, but if ray allen can get goin, that'll help a lot.

please no facts allowed sir.

all these fans blowing lebron and wade is funny. If they are so damn great they should sweep us and win every game by 25 plus points.

celts are not even supposed to be here with 4 players injured and not even playing plus plenty old timers playing hurt. we won two rounds of basketball. no easy feat if it was everybody would be doing it.

Ray Allen needs to play well for Boston to have any chance.

This. If Ray Allen can somehow find his groove, this series could go 7, regardless if Bosh plays or not.

And BTW, Bosh playing could potentially HURT the Heat more than help at this point. You don't know how rusty he will be after sitting out for more than a probably two weeks (assuming he is ABLE to play in Game 3 or 4 of this series).

i agree. if he's a no-show, i don't give us much of a chance.

maybe he'll catch fire after hitting those 2 big threes to close out the sixers.

I live in Miami and hate the Heat...but I think they may win this in 5.

The Celtics have a problem putting the ball in the basket...and the heat are gonna score some points

putting stock into head to head regular season results shouldn't even cross anyone's mind since it's pointless IMO.

they still played the games. it's not pointless.

had the heat won all 4, people would be saying the celtics would get run out of the bldg in this series.

in terms of who will win a playoff series, it is most certainly pointless. Last season, same 2 teams was already mentioned. Last season bulls-heat, same thing.


Hell, a couple of years ago, the Kings had a run of a couple of seasons or so where they won something like 8 of 10 from the Lakers if I'm not mistaken..

It's all meaningless right now. Not to mention in one of those games, the leading scorers on each team were Dexter Pittman and Sasha Pavlovic I think
