I think Boston has to think about do they want: Allen on Salmons (w/ Pierce on Gordon)or Allen on Gordon (w/ Pierce on Salmons). Ether way there's a terrible matchup staring them down. Because Gordon can go toe to toe with Allen offensively, and all Salmons would have to do is hold his own against Pierce. Because without KG, T2/Noah and Miller should pwned Davis/Perkins/Powe, and the PG play should be a wash, but it wouldn't surprise me if Rose doesn't own Rondo during the series. So IMO it comes down to Gordon/Salmons .v. Allen/Pierce. On paper it's a no brainer, but in actuallity the matchup is prolly closer then what people think. Personally, if the Bulls can run and set an up-tempo rhytmn to the game, then the Bulls should run them out of the gym. But we all know the Bulls are a notoriously slow starter and could easier find themselves down early every game.
