OK, at this price I'll bite. This is the Eastern Conference Finals after all and we are talking the Boston Celtics not the Washington Generals. This line is super inflated because Isaiah Thomas is done for the playoffs with a hip injury and Cleveland has destroyed the Celtics by 13 and 44 points, respectively, during the first two games of the series.
No, the Celtics aren't pulling off an upset for all-time here. But they will play hard after suffering the worst home playoff loss in franchise history. And this is the proudest of franchises, too. Brad Stevens is an excellent coach. I'd take hime over Tyronn Lue in a heartbeat.
The Celtics do have depth. They are capable of playing much better. The Cavaliers can't help but put things on auto drive especially now returning home. I can't see Cleveland playing with a great deal of intensity after such a pair of easy victories.
