if wade and lebron play the way they played in game 4,5,6 against the pacers no way they can lose.

You forgot the part where they get swept by OKC/SA

Problem for Boston is that they don't have a bench either which really means that Paul Pierce has to play 45 minutes like Lebron does every day.

Same thing with all the rest of the old players.

Success.

The Heat have the 2 best players in this series and the key for the Celtics is to limit their production to the point where Rondo, KG and Pierce can somewhat match it. If they can do that i believe the rest of Celtics role players can out play the heat role players. With that being said it is going to be tough for the Celtics to sustain that over a 7 game series; Miami had the advantage in easy points(Transition/Free Throws) and have more in reserve to close out games. With all that being said can you trust Miami's heart and mental toughness???. In their last series they showed great signs of heart and mental toughness but I guess their consistency in those regards will be tested as the post season progresses.

No one is taking into account that the Celtics are going to play alot of zone in this series something Indiana should have done with Wade and Lebron constantly attacking the rim (even Vogel joked about it going into the forth quarter of Game 4) and it has shown to slow both of them down in the past. Also the Heat can't front KG like they have been doing with Battier and Lebron since Rondo is capable of perfectly pass over the guy fronting for layups. That alone gives Boston a puncher's chance assuming Bosh isn't back.

Another factor no one is taking into account is as bad a rebounding team as the Celtics are they're better than the Heat minus Bosh.

I think it's going to be a good series.



If Boston didn't pop Avery Bradley's shoulder into place, literally every game, they might have him right now. And if they did what they should have done and went after Marcus Camby, then they would have a C and have Bass maximized as a 6th man.



But they were stupid, so there you go.
