Mike Gorman: I think Boston in 6. Because look at the way they’ve played over the last 45-50 games. Last 40 games they have the 5th best defense in the league and 10th best offense in the league. Cleveland has the 20th best defense in the league. I think Cleveland can be exploited. I think Cleveland if we can get in their heads in games 1 or 2, we’ll see whether there is chemistry on that team, whether those guys are getting along or not.
I tweeted about a month ago, “Get on board the Celtics bandwagon, something nice is happening here and it is.”
GT: You’re serious. In six, Celtics?
MG: I’m serious.
Look, I’m a Mike Gorman guy. I go all the way back to his days broadcasting the Providence Friars and Big East basketball.
He’s a phenomenal broadcaster with immense basketball knowledge.
But Mike has lost his damn mind.
Or…
Mike is trolling LeBron and the Cavs? Not sure what good that would do.
I’m stumped. I don’t think you’ll find anyone alive who’d predict the Celtics as victors in this series. I’d be thrilled if the Celtics LOST in 6 games.
FWIW – LeBron’s focus in the 1st round of the playoffs is razor sharp. His record is 24-3. That’s better than Legend, MJ, Magic and Duncan.
It’s gonna take a miracle.
