Boston is a really unique team and I cannot recall another similar team composition.
Their top 6 players are all good-to-great offensive players. Their top 6 players are all good-to-great on defense. Their top 6 guys can all shoot from 3. Those same top 6 players are all fairly high IQ veterans and other than Porzingis, have an incredible amount of playoff experience.
They also seem well-coached. Even the Warrior super-teams never had a top 6 who were so good.
It will take not only some amazing Luka and Kyrie performances for us to win the series but some remarkable 3-point shooting from our role players for us to win.
This is a great test for us. After game one, my hopes for the series have changed somewhat. I'll consider it a successful series if all the remainder of games are competitive and we take them to at least 6 games. I'd love to win the series but will be happy to just be competitive. It's been an amazing season and I can enjoy the Finals even if we don't win it all.
