00:00
the boston celtics are the two seed out east they're a minus 140 odds on favor to win the
00:05
eastern conference ground the celtics of course are the reigning nba champs and because of it
00:11
boston is expected to absolutely handle the orlando magic the celtics are a minus 7 000
00:20
minus 7 000 series outright favorite you see that series spread three and a half games plus three
00:28
and a half for orlando if the magic do not get swept on it they cash that ticket at only minus 154
00:35
in terms of juice boston is expected to sweep the orlando magic that is what the odds makers are
00:43
telling us do you think it is that simple for the seas i don't think so like it's still the playoffs
00:50
and you're still getting rest and also what's the the mo of teams coming into the playoffs right when
00:54
you take a look at the atlanta hawks and you say okay what happens if they match up against the
00:58
celtics and you told me it's going to be a sweep i might believe it because there's not a lot of
01:01
defensive resistance the one thing that you do like in the playoffs is the defensive intensity is
01:06
usually ratcheted up the magic are used to playing at that same defensive level like it's a playoff
01:11
game throughout the entire season because that's their mo i'm not saying they're going to be elite
01:14
defense enough to shut down that starting five and also the bench there for the boston celtics but
01:18
this isn't one of those teams that's oh they're really fun they're loose they're carefree every game
01:22
is 240 and a half is the total and away you go with the celtics would drop 135 every game and say
01:28
good luck trying to chase us down but there's going to be a game in that series ben where
01:31
you know the celtics don't play all that great and there are multiple home games that will be on
01:36
deck for the orlando magic why can't they win one like a gentleman's sweep is an absolute
01:40
destruction terror mayhem blowout of a series why can't the magic win one of those games yes they can
01:46
harm you know the magic win one of those games i'm going to say they're going to say fight you know the magic hit
01:59
that's when you're not a game that's not a game that's just a game that's not a game that's not a game that's not a game
