Celtics:
KD and Kyrie in the 1st round, although that team wasn’t good defensively or cohesive that’s two top 75 players in the first round

The defending champs in the 2nd, didn’t have Middleton but Robert Williams was in and out, and didn’t even play in the Game 7.

Miami team with home court, and matched up well defensively. Spo going against a rookie coach albeit a good one but still


Vs Warriors road

Banged up Denver with Aaron Gordon as the second option

Banged up Memphis with Ja leaving halfway in the series, and Desmond Bane being clearly injured. On top of that an inexperienced team

Overachieving Mavs team with no center to take advantage of the one thing the Warriors don’t have which is size.


Not trying to push the narrative that Steph has it easy, but this is something to look at

1) op stop being passive aggressive

2) to be fair, you are leaving out context. Yes celtics had the tougher road, but

A) grizzlies this year were notorious for playing better without Ja, and the warriors were 2-1 both with and without him in that series

B) they were a good match up for Dallas, plan and simple. That Dallas team best the Suns, and played well against other good teams.

The warriors have had it easy its the simple fact, a nugget team without murray and MPJ and memphis without ja and then mavs. This isn't impressive.

Getting to the Finals is impressive, in itself. You can only beat what's in front of you. There was nobody out West that was going to beat the Warriors, anyway. It didn't matter what combination of teams they played, they were always going to come out if they stayed healthy, which they did.
