Celtics-Cavs Second Round Series

James: 3/13.

What was the foul on that dunk by Garnett? I didn't know simply being in the poster was a foul these days.

Do the Cavs make a comeback? I'm kind of doubting it right now. We are so anemic.

2 nights in a row the Celtics leave the window wide open and we refuse to do anything with it.

16-3 run for the Celtics.

In the playoffs I have noticed this, putting a hand up on defense against one of the "big 3" is a foul, no matter if you actually make contact or not

LBJ is forcing his game...Just needs to let it come...

We have scored 6 fuckin' points this quarter...The defense isn't that fucking great...Yeah it is tough, but make an open fuckin' jumper, take the ball to the rim, kick to the open shooter, run a fuckin' offense...attack the offense boards...Do something that resembles an offense...IF you are going to set a pick set a fucking pick...And last but not least...Take care of the fuckin' ball you are an NBA player, dribble the ball, not off your foot, make passes to guys that are open, and be strong...

BTW I am happy we are in this game, just had to get this off my chest...Wish we had a guy on the sidelines that knew anything about offense...

It's not officiating right now although it was a terrible call not to give LeBron a shooting call earlier.

Delonte didn't argue the call, he must have gotten arm.

The Cavs have only themselves to blame. They're playing brutally bad, and have gotten ZERO good looks since Z in the first quarter.

LeBron needs a coach to get him good looks, or decide to take a game over by getting to the rim.

Neither is happening right now ....well LeBron just turned the corner and got to the line.

Anyways, this is brutal. The Celtics really aren't that good. We're making them good right now.

and LeBron misses both free throws, nice

this game is over

you're most likely right. One of the better things that could happen is that LeBron gets some open looks in the second half if it isn't competitve.

rididculosuly frustrating to waste a good start. We were 11 points at one point.

There is a measure of brilliance in what the Celtics are doing on defense. It's not as if LeBron is really attacking the rim, but on the occasions when he does, he's getting hacked by three guys at one time. It's smart because LeBron can usually finish if just one guy is fouling him - and it's not as if the refs can call fouls simultaneously on all of them. Just have everybody within reach foul him - odds are about 1 in 3 that any given player will be the one who picks up the foul.
