Expect Boston to target Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns in the 1st Celtics-Knicks playoff series since 2013.

The Celtics, which earned the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference and beat Orlando in five games to advance, face the Knicks in the second round of the NBA playoffs after New York beat Detroit, 4-2, to advance. The Celtics’ second-round series will open at TD Garden on Monday, with Game 2 to follow in Boston on Wednesday.

The firepower on this Cavs team is off the charts. Mitchell and Garland are both high-end scorers and creators. Mobley's offense blossomed in the year he won DPOY. Allen provides the rim runs that keep attention and bodies occupied inside. And there's plenty of shooting among the role players around those four.
