Still far from concluding the finals, I guess one series at a time, Boston as you mentioned have that advantage against those 3 squads who manage to move to the semis as they got the experienced though I guess it will be a tough final in the East as both Pacers and Knicks got that determinations to win, it's been a long time since these two squads manage to move forward and really aiming to comeback and have that chance for the season finals and if possible to win a title.
Boston aren't that solid IMO, so I think the Cavaliers here has a chance of winning the series. Seems like everyone is still so hype with Boston, yes, they have a good record this season but this is playoffs, and many times we witness how they choke, so it could also happen in this series.
This season, they met 3 times and Boston have 2-1 lead in that series.

It's just a signle digit win but in game 1 the Celtics are -11. I know they are fresh compared to the Cavaliers that just recently concluded its series, but currrent active roster of the cavaliers won't give up easily, they proved that on their game 7 come back win.
