“So, we meet again.”
This is straight out of a movie script. The Boston Celtics face the Miami Heat in the NBA Playoffs once again. It is giving me several conflicting feelings.
On one hand, this is a perfect opportunity for revenge. They knocked us out last year and we can (and should) return the favor this year. Perhaps that motivation for revenge will prevent this team from getting overconfident and looking past the opponent the way they might have in facing the Chicago Bulls.
On the other hand, this Heat team is just not very good and without Jimmy Butler, they should barely register as a speed bump to this year’s version of the Celtics.
