Welcome to the Eastern Conference Finals, Cavs fans. The Cavaliers travel to the TD Garden this afternoon, to take on the Celtics and their hungry cast of young players. It will be interesting. The last time the Cavs took on this squad in the playoffs, they were without NBA All-Star Isaiah Thomas, who’d been shut down because of a lingering hip issue, and the Celtics had new life because they’d won game three without him. The Cavs stepped into game five in the Garden and dropped a 135-102 beatdown on Beantown that made us all laugh at NBA analytics.
