I disagree with this. You are not giving Stevens enough credit. There is no doubt the Celtics will make many adjustments from last year's playoffs if they meet Cleveland again. Cleveland will make zero changes and rely on talent. Which yes, they are more talented, but not that 12 games to 3 more talented. I love Stevens. Fucking love him. They are 12 to 3 more talented, in games that matter. Regular season games? Maybe 7-5 more talented. Celtics are 2 legit players away from getting past a team like Cleveland. I know last year was different, and it won't likely be a sweep this time. But where would you put the Celtics odds of a win against the Cavs in the EC finals right now? 100-1? 50-1? I'd bet either of those odds if you gave them to me. I thought they played them pretty tough for a sweep last year and I didn't think Stevens coached his best. I would just be very surprised if it is a sweep again. A sweep would surprise me more than a Boston win. |

2) NBA teams usually don't win 60 games without a quality center, and, I see no quality there. I could be wrong, if someone names said center.

Didn't hear that. Did like English as a player though.
A lot of good players on those 80s bucks teams. Imagine if they had held onto him too.
Paul Pressey, Moncreif, Marques, Bridgeman, lot of quality. Lanier was old by then but still took up some space. Celts/Sixers owned that road until they both flamed out in the late 80s. No way to get to finals.

Alex English has dabbled in acting. His debut came in the 1987 motion picture Amazing Grace and Chuck, playing a fictitious Boston Celtics star. He has also had roles in the television series Midnight Caller 1989 and played the head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers in Eddie (1996). To date, his last role was as "The Premiere" 1997's 'The Definite Maybe.
I just know that he was no Dr. J, like in The Fish that Saved Pittsburg........

LOL, I knew they were fucked and I knew Igoudala was making those free throws. You can see Durant saying to himself..."Mother fucker miss at least one. And then the first minute of the game he fouls out on a stupid foul. Too bad Westbrook keeps getting in his way. |
