Celtics +3 V Ok City
-----
This is actually an advantageous matchup for the Celtics and although they have sucked balls this is a game they should win on paper and certainly a game they need.
match up wise, durant is a big threat but pierce is the perfect size and style of player for him. Allen is not able to be followed by anyone but westbrook, maynor is gone and Harden is not a great match for allen.
rondo has the quickness and athleticism to stay with Westbrook, obviously westbrook is a bit more effective on offense, but I think rondo can aggravate him and so can bradley off the bench.
O'neal is terrible on D, but, Perkins is also terrible on offense and this is a game where the celtics might expose some of the things they learned about him in practice over the years. Like how he has to power dribble every time even though he is 7 fuckin feet tall...
anyways... Celts need a win, ok city is due for a loss, and the matchup favors the Boston Geriatrics.
