Boston will face a much harder challenge against Philadelphia

Well, that last series lasted quite a while. It was the perfect example of home court advantage, as the home team won in every single game. Luckily for the Boston Celtics, they had one extra home game compared to the Milwaukee Bucks, so their fans were able to push them past the threshold and into the 2nd round of the 2018 NBA Playoffs.

Only this time, the Celtics will be up against a much tougher opponent and, in fact, a division rival, in the Philadelphia 76ers.

If the Celtics are going to lose a series in the Eastern Conference, it’s this one.
