However, he was provocative in his conviction that the Celtics would emerge victorious at the end of the best seven series.
Speaking in a subtitled video “I am not worried at all”, Portnoy said: “Maybe I’m naive, I still think that the Celtics will win this series. I just can’t wrap my brain around the Celtics losing against the Knicks.
“But I can’t wrap my mind around them blowing 20 points either in consecutive games and going four of 100. You can’t get so bad.
“There is simply no way to lose against the Knicks. Two below, Whatev. No.’
In a separate video subtitled “Celtics in 6”, he added: “They cannot play worse than these two games.
“Errr .. Celtics in six. You can’t play worse, I can’t.
He also retaliated to fans criticizing Portnoy for having highlighted a previous game passage and telling him that it made him entrust the Celtics were drawn for the championship n ° 19.
