Boston's bench- Scalabrine & House (who finally decided to show up) sealed the win for the celts. plus the bulls inability to defend the boston pick-n-roll (i do question why VDN never changed his strategy on this)

even if the team i was rooting for ended up losing, i think this was the most exciting series i've watched since the bulls glory days

sf Deng
pf tyrus
c Noah

or starters, bench
Pg. Rose, Ty Lawson (draft), hunter
sg Deng, salmons, nelson
sf Tyrus and Dominic McGuire (from washington) Dante Cunningham (draft)

Great series. I can't believe how equal those two teams were. Orlando is probably LTAO because Boston should be really tired now.

Yes, I would as I'm not sure how they'd make up his 20+ ppg which he's still been getting that with Salmons on the team. I like Deng, but I don't have confidence that he'll live up to his contract and his durability is becoming a little bit of a concern.

in my opinion this has been the most exciting series ever(this includes the finals). i wont call it the best series ever as those need to be reserved for the finals matchups imo but i think it is without a doubt the best non title series ever. of course i love how it turned out but even if it went the other way my above opinion would stay the same. i still think we will beat the magic and lose to the cavs, they are just too good for us to go up against without KG

As far as first round series go, it's definitely got to be up there amongst the best from any era, let alone post-lockout.
