NBA Finals - Pivotal for Who?

The NBA Finals resume tonight with the Boston Celtics leading two games to one over the Golden State Warriors. Perhaps you hadn’t heard that, being consumed with Draft Fever.

I have no idea who will win this series, but I suspect it will be Boston. Golden State just appears to run out of steam as often as it goes on incredible runs. Even with arguably the best small-ball lineup in NBA history, it’s hard to play up against a team that’s bigger, younger, more athletic all the time. The lack of any real defensive weakness on the part of Boston makes it hard for the Warriors to target anyone, or anything.
