Can the Boston Celtics beat the Cleveland Cavaliers in the playoffs?

[ASFN Admin]

The Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers are on a collision course. Kenny Atkinson's team has dominated the regular season, and look good value to make a push toward the Eastern Conference Finals once the postseason gets underway. As such, Celtics fans would be wise to keep a watchful eye on Cleveland's performances in the coming weeks and months.

During a recent episode of the 'Open Floor' podcast, Chris Mannix and Chris Fedor discussed what appears to be an impending series against the two powerhouses of the East. A key point of the discussion centered on the health of Kristaps Porzingis, who has been in and out of Boston's rotation throughout the season.

The Celtics and Cavaliers are 2-2 this season, meaning neither side has a mental advantage. Still, when healthy, the Celtics roster should have a little too much for the Cavaliers to overcome. However, health is a rare commodity, especially in the physically draining playoffs.
