Boston Celtics - Cleveland Cavaliers Basketball prediction

I hate betting on favourites away, but here it is. I will start with I. Thomas phrase "I'm hurting but it's the playoffs, so there's no excuses," he said, adding it's "My whole body" that hurts."

Last game against Wizards, Celtics needed unsung hero in Olynyk to reach Eastern Finals. The problem with the Celtics is that they need Thomas in his best shape to score just enough to beat even average Cavs. Here comes the reason I expect above average Cavs and below average Celtics: 13-8 is the number played respectively by Celtics and Cavs. Sure, Cavaliers could be rusty in the beginning, but I expect a physical series with WAS to be a strong factor in the end.
