The Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers are now set to face off against each other in a must-win Game 7 this weekend.
Whoever loses the game will start their summer vacation.
And whoever wins will make the Eastern Conference Finals.
Skip Bayless thinks it could be a very tight game but he is sticking with the Sixers for victory.
“I’m still picking the Sixers to win the series, but if they’re going to win it, it will be because the Celtics blow it,” Bayless said on Undisputed.

Bayless noted that the Celtics might be a superior team but they have experienced “glitches all year long.”
He mentions a few surprising losses throughout the season that suggest that the 76ers could secure a victory on Sunday.
It looked like the Celtics were on their way to a stinging loss on Thursday night.
The Sixers seemed to be taking control of Game 6 as the end neared.
Even the Celtics’ biggest star, Jayson Tatum, was having trouble connecting with the basket and doing much for his team.
But he got hot in the fourth quarter and the Sixers fell apart.
The Celtics had momentum at the end of the game – will they be able to carry that into Game 7?
Fans for both teams are excited and very nervous about what happens next.
This series has had many ups and downs with both teams playing well and then also performing poorly.
It all comes down to Sunday when the team that does best will proceed to the next round.
Bayless believes it’ll be Philadelphia on top but anything could happen in Game 7.
