I have some similar feeling as sahayog, Wining  Eastern conference may not be a piece of cake for celtics (except hawks). Likes of Lebron James and hard fighters cavaliers can give a lot of headaches in the second round as they did in regular season remember!! ......And after that magic (which i believe will come from the other end) have a squad which can surprise any one.  I reckon eastern is as tough as western conference this time.
