Jeff Van Gundy: Warriors will lose to Celtics

[The War Report]

they'll likely get shyt on, but OK

JVG just being told to pump up an ESPN matchup, nothing more

It's not even being aired on ESPN

 

[Shadow King]

Celtics got a good squad but in Oakland? Hell nah.

 

[Brozay]

We've established that

I'm just happy that the Celtics are back in a position where people think they can win these types of games.

Warriors aren't losing until they play the Cavs

 

[Archangel]

I hope they do. That will solidify the Eastern Conference's ascension to being respectable this season

 

[Goatpoacher]

I remember when the kg celtics just won a title and were on like a 15 game win streak b diddy ended the streak on a last second jumper. Would be ironically symetrical if the celts did the same thing this year

You obviously haven't noticed the warriors been on a road trip for the last 2 weeks.The game in boston

 

[yseJ]

actually its not a far-fetched prediction. klay will be out/limited in least one game of this back to back and it makes sense it will be friday. and c's have good defense from what Ive seen. until the cavs game its the most losable game for the warriors

 

[Big Boss]

It's over

 

[aceboon]

If Klay misses the game then they could definitely lose, they're already short Barnes.

It's in Boston.

Didn't know the road trip was still going

A shift is occurring in my mind

Jeff Van Gundy's prediction: Warriors will lose to Celtics




I would certainly give them a chance. Sleep on this team and you will have a rude awakening

- 3rd best Defensive Rating in the NBA
- #1 in the league in forcing turnovers
- Arguably have the best perimeter defense in the league
- Came close in beating the dubs last season and seems to match them up very well.

Only if they take Boston for granted like most people do. Boston plays like how Washington did when we didn't have any bigmen healthy. They suck so they have to play extra "scrappy".

Gortat came back yesterday and the Washington defensive intensity was nowhere near the level it needed to be when Gortat/etc was gone. So that extra spunk is what drives the Celtics. The problem is that shyt isn't gonna be a problem to other teams during an 82game season. When shyt gets REAL, it then comes down to execution. G.S. right now is the best in the league at executing what they wanna do. So Boston's D should not be as much of a factor as it has been so far this season. And if I'm right about that, the streak will continue...
