Lil B on the Celtics: ‘They are playing with the Based God’s blessing right now’

Rapper Lil B, known for relaying NBA blessings and curses, has confirmed Boston is currently “playing with the Based God’s blessing.”

“The Cavs do not officially have the Based God’s blessing,” Lil B told Boston.com before Game 2. “We have not talked about that, but the Celtics are playing basketball as a team and organization with the Based God’s blessing behind them.”

Not only is Boston “blessed by the Based God,” but the team is also Lil B’s personal pick to win the Eastern Conference Finals. After winning both Games 1 and 2 at home, Boston heads to Cleveland for Saturday’s Game 3 with a 2-0 series lead.
