I like the Celtics a lot. KG is pro. Part of me wants to see the Heat win championships, and the other half wants them to wallow in misery and never get one.
The Hawks are better than the Celtics? You can bring up the Hawks problems but Allen is playing with a horrible ankle, Pierce is hurt, and Bradley has been knocked around. Celtics should've won in 5 and the Hawks will always be trash in the playoffs as long as Joe Johnson is their best player.
I have a friend who's a Hawks fan and all he does is talk about Josh Smith. I've tried to tell him he's a less talented Blake Griffin, all flash and no substance, but he just won't listen.
Josh Smith is FAR more talented than Blake Griffin. He can do a little of everything. The knocks are that he takes terrible shots, he complains too much, and he sometimes takes plays off. Blake Griffin has little more than athleticism, but flops and cries like mad. He sat the last 15 minutes of a close game 7 yesterday.
I think it's safe to say that the Celtics aren't going anywhere, seeing as they've now struggled against the two weakest teams in the playoffs besides the Jazz. I will still say the Celtics will win game 7, but I would rather see the 76ers win now. They'll lose in the conference finals. If somehow they manage to beat the Heat or Pacers, they would surely lose to the Thunder or Spurs (who are the two best teams right now).
