All season long, everyone and their mothers automatically pencilled the Boston Celtics into the Finals, disregarding the other 14 teams in the Eastern Conference. And I get it. They’re the defending champions, having marched through a Miami Heat team, playing without 6-time NBA All-Star, Jimmy Butler. Then they beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, playing without Donovan […]
