Cleveland Cavaliers @ Boston Celtics – Tuesday, December 15 (7:30 PM ET)
In what sets up as a rematch from last year’s Eastern Conference first round, the Boston Celtics play host to the conference-leading Cleveland Cavaliers. Not only will it be an intriguing matchup simply because of the Kevin Love vs Kelly Olynyk pairing, but because the Celtics are red-hot right now.
The Celtics have won five of their last seven are are probably the best-coached team in the NBA, at least they are in my opinion.
Will Kyrie Irving play? It’s unlikely right now, but you never know. That could also add intrigue to this matchup. Even if he doesn’t suit up though, this will be an interesting watch.
