Following Thursday night’s loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Skip Bayless is warning Boston Celtics fans that they should be more than concerned.
In fact, he told Paul Pierce that he should be “scared” on Friday’s episode of “Undisputed.”
Bayless listed a number of reasons why the Celtics should be worried after their surprising defeat at home at the hands of the Cavaliers.

The biggest point that Bayless made is that the Cavaliers are not the Miami Heat.
While the Celtics were able to easily move past the Heat in the opening round, that was partly because Miami was without both Jimmy Butler and Terry Rozier.
That opened a clear pathway for the Celtics and the Heat were hobbled offensively.
That isn’t the case with the Cavaliers, who saw Donovan Mitchell shooting incredibly well during Game 2.
Mitchell is healthy and hitting important shots, which is making the Miami Heat feel like a distant memory.
Bayless also added that one of Boston’s best shooters, Derrick White, wasn’t playing as well as usual during Thursday’s game.
This is a very bad sign for Boston because they need all of their star players to be performing to the best of their abilities during this series.
There are definitely a few troubling signs that Bayless pointed out but Pierce didn’t seem too worried about them.
Like many Boston fans, he still feels that his team has that advantage and will take down the Cavaliers.
Most betting sites agree with Pierce but Thursday night was concerning.
If the Celtics also give up the next game, Pierce and others won’t be nearly as confident
