I said going into this series that Boston would win in 6 games and I would not be surprised if it was 5. It comes down to simple math and I was surprised how many people thought Dallas would win. When it's a game of "two vs five," five almost always wins. If Boston closes out the "closers" on Friday night, their overall record (reg season + playoffs) will be 80-20 including 16-2 in the playoffs. They will not be considered among the best single season teams ever, but they will be one of the five best Celtics single season teams ever. Not bad.
