From the beginning of the season, this was a series matchup that was waiting to happen - an eventuality.
The Miami Heat were built on the premise of getting 3 stars together in the same team. It also happens to be an exact copy of the blueprint the Boston Celtics drew up in assembling their Big Three of Garnett, Pierce and Allen. The fact that the 3 stars on both teams are an exact match in positions (2, 3 & 4) just makes the similarity more obvious.
The Celtics made a mid-season trade (Green and Krstic for Perkins) specifically to help Pierce and Allen in the post season. And it's pretty obvious that Danny Ainge considered the Miami Heat a big part of the post season.
And guess what ? Here they are. A little earlier than some would have liked, but it's Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat.
Looking forward to it.
