00:00Let me ask you this, Keefe.

00:01Yeah.

00:01Do we have an actual series?

00:03No.

00:04No?

00:05I don't.

00:05I really don't.

00:06The last time the Celtics trailed the series was the Eastern Conference Final against Miami.

00:09That's the last time they were down in a series two years ago.

00:12I don't, and I still think it's a really good matchup for the Celtics.

00:16They needed to miss a historic number of threes in order to lose the game in overtime.

00:22So not trying to be too positive after a loss, because that was frustrating.

00:25They shouldn't have lost that game.

00:27But going into the series, I thought they were so much better than the Knicks.

00:30And they just matched up so well against the Knicks that I don't think it's going to happen.

00:35Like, I don't think New York is going to find a way.

00:37I think the Celtics blow them out in game two.

00:40Then they've been such a...

00:41I'm with you on that.

00:42So that happens.

00:42The Knicks have already come to Boston and done what they needed to do.

00:46They're good.

00:46Game two is going to be a bloodbath.

00:48But I disagree with you.

00:49I think we have a series.

00:50The Celtics have been such a good road team this year.

00:52I'm not picking the Knicks to win it, by the way.

00:54But you did say six at the beginning of the series.

00:56Correct.

00:56I don't think the Celtics are, oh, it's just one game.

00:59They're going to win the next four.

01:00It's over in five.

01:01They're going to dominate.

01:02Like, I don't think that.

01:03I think the Knicks are going to push them a little bit.

01:04And I'll stand by the six I had going in.

01:07I'm not picking the Knicks in the series.

01:09But, yeah, while New York has no chance in game two, bet the house on the Celtics in game two,

01:15I do think it's a series.

01:16Because I think with this team, they probably don't shoot this poorly again as a team from three.

01:23And even if they do, this came down to a coin flip.

01:25So it wasn't like they shot this poorly and the Knicks routered them.

01:29Are the Knicks going to miss 14 free throws in another game?

01:31Well, if Mitchell Robinson is on the line, maybe.
