The '04 Pistons are my favorite team ever, so you know I'm enjoying it.
The Celtics are getting a little beaten up in this series and Spoelstra's exposing some vulnerabilities. I think the Knicks have a real shot at knocking them off, which I thought was ridiculous when you proposed it a couple of weeks ago.
I'm also counting on the Knicks to eliminate the Celtics. But before that, they need to get past the Pacers first, which I think they should be able to pull it off. We shall see.

Pascal is playing well.

He is, especially the first 2 games. His rebounding numbers are awesome.

How would he look if Giannis were in there, though?
I guess the Knicks don't have a Giannis either, so maybe that's not very important.
reply
I look at series as is, with injuries factored in. Fact of the matter is, Bucks didn't have Giannis to start, then lost Dame after 3 games, and Middleton is probably going to be playing hurt. Bucks are not getting past the Pacers.

If Haliburton's back to something like his old self, he and Pascal are a dangerous combo.

I think the Bucks would win that series with Giannis.

Haha that's interesting because I am less convicted on the Knicks now than I was two weeks ago. They seem to be having a hard time with the 76ers. Maybe it's just a bad matchup for them. Hopefully they can give the Celtics a run.

The Celtics can really be thrown off by tough physical play. If the Heat were able to rattle them for a game with Herro, Jovic, and Robinson, just imagine what these Knicks can do.
It's all about dragging the Celtics down, since they're so much more talented than everyone else.

Did you see the article that @StillStackinAfterAllTheseYears posted about the end of the Lebron generation?
