The Philadelphia 76ers will face the Boston Celtics in round 2 of the NBA Playoffs. This match up should bring back memories of the classic playoff battles in the days of Julius Erving and Larry Bird for some, and if your old enough Chamberlain and Russell. The Sixers and Celtics are meeting for the 19th time in playoff history. The youngest team in the playoffs will face one of the oldest teams in the playoffs, and the Sixers need to use this to their advantage by making each game a track meet. There is no question that if the Sixers shoot as bad as they did in this series as they did against the Bulls they will lose this series. The Sixers and Celtics faced each other 3 times during the regular season with the Sixers winning 2 games. The Sixers need to take one of the first two games in Boston. The Sports Den’s Pick: Sixers win series 4-2.
