Lebron and the Cavaliers think so.
Tyronn Lue has done everything the can to make sure his team doesn't overlook their opponent and look ahead to the Finals with the Golden State Warriors.
In fact, it was mentioned this morning that he thinks the Celtics are a tougher guard than the Warriors. Um... ok.
I have heard a few whoppers in my day, but that one is up there.
The game started at 8:30 pm EST time tonight.
The line at tip-off was Boston getting 9.5 points.
My thoughts...
This is an instance where I don't think that's enough points folks.
A motivated and rested Cleveland team ready to try and go for a repeat against the Warriors in the next round spells big trouble for a short handed Boston team.
The only way Boston wins this game tonight is if they shoot 50% or better from the 3 point line and they shoot a bunch of 3's.
They won't.
In my opinion, this one is in the bag folks.
I took Cleveland and gave up the points on this one. I am not usually one to pass on points easily, but this is one time when I had no problem doing it.
Cleveland by 13.
What do you guys think will happen tonight?
