| Kevin Garnett |
I said to my friends at the beginning of the playoffs that the Celtics would beat the Heat in six games to head to the NBA Finals. I said before this series started that the Celtics would win in six games. Now why would I say this? Because the Heat simply have not figured out how to stop Rajon Rondo. Rondo is the key to it all. He engineers almost everything the Celtics do and his playing is allowing the supporting cast of Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen among others to elevate their games. The Celtics are also doing just enough to contain the duo of LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. Until the Heat find a way to contain Rondo, this series will be a struggle for the Heat to win. Lastly, if the Celtics are at their best, the Heat will not win this series. The two questions for the rest of this series are whether Chris Bosh makes an impact on the outcome of the series and whether the "old" Celtics will fade and get tired while the Heat win the battle of attrition.
