Game Notes
The Celtics are coming off a very impressive win over the Cavaliers in Game 1.  LeBron was, to put it nicely, a bit off.  His supporting cast didn't play much better and the Cavs seemed to be a bit disjointed throughout the game.  The Celtics played hard and executed their game plan on both ends of the court with the result being a 25 point win.

It is safe to say that Tyronn Lue and LeBron James will make some adjustments to try to counter what the Celtics did to look so dominant.  Although the Cavs Game Notes list the same starters for this game as they had in Game 1, one of those changes may be to move Tristan Thompson to the starting lineup with Kevin Love at power forward and LeBron James at small forward. 

If they keep both Love and Thompson in the starting lineup, one of their shooters will go to the bench and my guess it will be Korver because of his defensive limitations.  LeBron may want to try his luck at matching up with the Celtics rookie Jayson Tatum.  Whatever lineup changes are made, the biggest change that has to be made by the Cavs is their energy and effort. 

Lue has pretty much tipped his hand that Thompson will start but whether he keeps Love with the starters isn't known.  Brad Stevens hasn't said whether he will change the lineup or not.  He may counter with Baynes with the starters or may stay with his smaller lineup.  We probably won't know either lineup for certain until just before game time with neither coach wanting to tip their hands too soon.

The above Cavs lineup is just a guess.  Lue may stand pat and hope that added effort may be enough or he may just swap Love and Thompson and leave the rest of his lineup the same.  The Celtics once again will be without Kyrie Irving, Gordon Hayward,  Daniel Theis and Shane Larkin.   Although all of those players were at the game on Sunday, cheering their teammates on.  The Cavaliers still have no injuries to report and are at full strength. 

Since  2009,  the  Cavs  are  16-3  in Game Twos of any series (25-19 record all-time in Game Twos).  When trailing 0-1, the Cavs have gone on to win five series in their postseason history, including this year’s First Round matchup against Indiana.   Cleveland  is  8-2  in  their  last  10  playoff  games  against  Boston (5-1  on  road).  Including  the  regular  season,  the  Cavs  are  17-7  versus  the  Celtics since 2014-15 (9-4 on road).

Marcus Morris vs LeBron James
Marcus Morris did a great job in limiting LeBron to 15 points on 31% shooting and 0-5 from beyond the arc.  Hd had 7 rebounds and 9 assists but also turned the ball over 7 times.  If, as I mentioned above, Lue changes his lineup to move Tristan Thompson to the starting lineup, Brad may counter with a move of his own.  Whoever guards LeBron needs to be ready for much more energy and effort from him in this game and be ready to counter it.

Al Horford vs Tristan Thompson
Thompson has been effective in the past in guarding Horford and has also been a beast on the boards.  Horford (or Baynes) needs to box out Thompson and do their best to keep him out of the paint.   Just as with LeBron, the Celtics have to be ready to take the Cavs best effort in this one.  They were embarrassed in Game 1 and will look to save face with a strong effort in this game. 


Honorable Mention

Jaylen Brown vs JR Smith
If Lue sends Korver to the bench, Brown will have a tougher matchup with Smith, who has been known to play dirty at times.  Hopefully Jaylen can adapt and have another big game for the Celtics.  Smith is inconsistent and may have a big game or may have another game where he struggles, no matter who guards him. 

Celtics Bench vs Cavaliers Bench
The Celtics reserves scored 20 points in Game 1 while their counterparts from the Cavs bench scored 37.  The Celtics starters had it going in this one while the Cavs starters did not.  If any of the Celtics starters struggle in Game 2,  the reserves coming in have to be ready to step up and make a bigger impact in this one. 

Keys to the Game
Defense Defense Defense!! Defense is key to winning every game.  The Cavs are averaging 101.8 points (12th) while the Celtics are averaging 104.4 points (8th).  The Celtics are 4th with a defensive rating of 104.3 while the Cavs are 10th with a defensive rating of 108.9.  The Celtics won Game 1 with their swarming lock down defense, holding the Cavs to 83 points.  If they want to win this game,  they will need more of the same. 

Rebound - This was the Celtics' biggest weakness last season but the team has more length and more athleticism this season and are rebounding much better.  Much of rebounding is effort and so the Celtics have to work hard to beat the Cavs to rebounds.  The Cavs are averaging 38.6 rebounds while the Celtics are averaging 42.8 rebounds.  The Celtics out-rebounded the Cavs 48-40 in Game 1 and they will need to work even harder on the boards in this game. 

Be Aggressive -  The Celtics must be the more aggressive team.  They have to beat the Cavs to every loose ball and win the 50/50 plays.  They have to be aggressive on the boards and in driving into the paint and to the basket.  The more aggressive team will usually get the benefit of the doubt from the refs but sometimes that doesn't work with LeBron.   The Celtics have to be the team that works harder and the team that wants it more.  They were more aggressive in Game 1 and will need to do the same in this game.   

Start Strong and Play 48 Minutes - After getting hit hard by the Celtics in Game 1, especially in the first quarter,  the Cavs will likely come out strong in this game and look to play much harder from the beginning.  The Celtics can't start out slowly and allow the Cavs to get a big lead as they are a tough team to come back against.  They also can't afford to let up at any time in the game or the Cavs will make them pay for it.   The Celtics must start strong and play hard throughout the game. No let up!!! 

Control LeBron's Supporting Cast - It's almost impossible to stop a player like LeBron who gets the benefit of most of the calls and can drive and dip his shoulder into any defenders as he goes to the basket.  But, the Celtics can slow down Love, Korver, Hill and Smith  along with the players off the bench.  They have to make it as tough on LeBron as they can on both ends of the court but they have to clamp down on his teammates and try to stop them.   

Move the Ball - The Celtics get into trouble when they take quick shots and don't move the ball enough to get the defense out of position.  Their assists are usually down in their losses and up in the wins.  They have to move the ball and find the open man.  No hero ball.  They also have to be careful with their passes and not turn the ball over as the Cavs are averaging 15.3 points off turnovers. 

X-Factors
Focus - The Celtics came out focused in Game 1 and executed their game plan very well to beat the Cavs in Game 1.  It is easy to lose focus after a big win like that and expect another easy win in Game 2, but that would be a big mistake.  The Celtics need to come out focused and play like it is Game 7 to protect their home court. 

Home Game  - The Celtics have the advantage of playing at home in front of what should be another very loud crowd.   The Celtics have to get motivation and energy from the crowd.  The Cavs are a more experienced team than the young Bucks and Sixers and may not be rattled by the Celtics crowd but they can sometimes influence the refs and boost the home team.  Al Horford said that the crowd carried them in Game 1 and hopefully they will do so in this one as well. 

Officiating -  The officiating is always an x-factor.  In some games so far the officiating was very good and they let both teams play and let some contact go both ways but didn't let it get out of hand.  In some others the refs were not good and called it more one sided.  In Game 1, the officiating was good and they let both teams play.    Hopefully we avoid Tony Brothers and Scott Foster and have fair and even officiating in Game 2.

Although the Cavs Game Notes list the same starters for this game as they had in Game 1, one of those changes may be to move Tristan Thompson to the starting lineup with Kevin Love at power forward and LeBron James at small forward.

The Cavs sleep-walked through game 1.  Nice win for the Celtics but it doesn't matter if the Celtics don't win game 2.  LeBron is right to not be overly concerned after just 1 game.  But if the Celtics can somehow win game 2, suddenly the Cavs do have their backs against the wall.  This is a HUGE  game.  Let's see how they respond.

It wasn't so much that LeBron seemed uninspired, the whole team was that way.  I am not sure that LeBron can inspire the rest of the team no matter how well he may play individually.  Not sure Lue can either.  They are all going to have to want it individually because to me, there does not seem to be that "team unite" kind of thing.  Actually, Tristan Thompson played with some fire.  He was the only one.  Maybe he can be the spark.  I guess that is what Lue is hoping.

As long as the Celts run their stuff regardless if Lebron goes off or not , i can't see this Cav's team defense standing up over the full 48 to get the job done on the road.
Should be another comfortable win for the Celtics.

Like Philadelphia did in Game 2, I imagine the Cavaliers are going to come out and try to get off to a fast start. The C's NEED to weather their runs. While the C's did make the comeback against PHI in Game 2 despite falling behind by 25, I just don't think they can do it against a Lebron-led Cavaliers team if they do fall behind by a ton early. Not when they're down 1-0 already.

As much as I despise him (as a player, not person), I think Lebron IS going to go off today. Hopefully our defense though manages to smother and contain their other threats like Love, JR, Korver though. My two biggest fears is that Thompson manages to kill us inside (with put-backs or key rebounds) AND/OR the referees take over. Thankfully we don't have Foster or Brothers reffing this game, but it wouldn't surprise me if the refs tonight call some 50/50 calls against us and start putting some of our guys in foul trouble early to benefit Lebron and co. C's have to play smart and limit the turnovers and low IQ shots.

I think Tatum will have a big game today (25-30 points). They don't have anyone who can really guard him, so Tatum will hopefully be in attack mode. Hopefully Morris has found his mojo again and gives us a solid 15-20 points too. I imagine they'll try their best to keep Horford in check and possibly Brown too, so we need Tatum, Morris, and Rozier to have big games. CLE won't shoot that poorly again, but I imagine we'll still make it tough on them, and we have to keep attacking them inside. Thompson, while still pesky, isn't the same player as 2 years ago, and Love is a horrible defender in the paint. I think we see some Monroe tonight to deal with Thompson at times, especially on the offensive end. Attack, Attack, Attack! And if they clog the inside, kick it to the open guy! Hope it's a great night with a win, Brooklyn Pick NOT landing Top-3, and Celtics acquiring the Lakers pick despite the low odds.

LETS GO C'S!!  8)

I predict a close game with Bron trying to take control.  The C’s need to feed off the crowd and win this game.  We don’t want to go back to Cleveland even.  If we take this one and split in Cleveland it will be done in 5 and Bron’s reign as king is over.  LETS GO CELTICS!!!!!!!!!!!

Love how the narrative after Game 1 has been that the Cavs merely missed shots and Lebron will just pour it on tonight and lead the team to victory  ::)

I hope we win soundly again just so I can see the mental gymnastics that these talking heads will use to justify their continued riding of Lebron.

First possession for Cleveland. Who knows how long that will take, but within the first minute I bet

Might be a good idea to put "non-essential personnel" on him in the first quarter. Cause the refs will want to set the tone early. We can't stop them from calling fouls. But at least we can give a few of those fouls to Semi instead of Smart or Tatum or whoever.

Love how the narrative after Game 1 has been that the Cavs merely missed shots and Lebron will just pour it on tonight and lead the team to victory  ::)

I hope we win soundly again just so I can see the mental gymnastics that these talking heads will use to justify their continued riding of Lebron.

My favorite part is how too many people are desperately trying to claim that the Celtics are hardly undermanned, at this point ::). Like, wat?

Not really surprising.  So Morris d's up Lebron, Tatum is on TT,  Horford stays on Love

reverse

Lebron goes on Tatum, Love guards Morris, and TT probably gets Al.

I don't mind.

I'm actually happy so far. Down two but we're getting decent looks, and we're making it difficult for them on the other end. If Bron doesn't two deep threes early in the shot clock, this is a four point lead by us.

Do have to do a better job with Thompson on the offensive boards, though.

Credit to the refs, too. They've held their whistle on some marginal contact on Lebron that I thought for sure he would get tonight. Now let's see if they keep it up...

Yep. Cavs D is still terrible. And their offense revolves around Thompson and Smith committing illegal screens for LeBron etc. Once we settle down we can take control.

Celts daring him to drive with his left lol
He hasn't been great and the Cavs are up 2. That's how you lose games against the Hem.

He's hit three long, desperation threes. We're doing just fine starting off, other than the Thompson offensive boards.

I don't like the start to this game.
We've given up 2 offensive rebounds to Thompson already, what's there to like..

He's been doing this to us for years, and we've yet to figure out how to keep him off the boards.

The only person who can keep him off the offensive glass is Tyronne Lue

Many of these shots are good ones for the defense.  A 30-footer that bounces in.  A turnaround fadeaway end-of-clock three.  A couple of quick heat-check threes. 

If he beats us with those, so be it.  Just keep playing.  Odds are that they stop falling.

Impressed by CLE's rebounding ... but not impressed by their offense. They are just making a lot of tough shots right now ... but they're not getting good shots (often enough) and when they do they have to work very hard for them.

I don't think they can keep this up.

Boston meanwhile is getting more into it and improving as the game goes on.

Yep. Assuming the refs are fiar, we will be fine once we settle down.

Not playing instinctively now due to nerves. That should pass, and the crowd  - and our athleticism - should give us a great shot at winning.

We're not playing the smartest offensive basketball, but that's about as good as you can hope for with how Lebron is playing right now.

Right? I think that this is great, lol. He's playing his ass off - toying with us, even - and it's a five point game. Keep nailing him with picks and screens. You're not going to get a foul on him, naturally, but we should use that to our advantage and go right at him for the rest of the night and, hopefully, tire him out. This is very doable, imo.

Lebron has gone off for 19 already.

The good news - we are still hanging tough despite his red hot start.

If we can keep the first quarter close we can recover in the 2nd quarter.

And as good as Lebron is, he's only human, and you can already see him starting to miss these difficult shots.

I'll take it.  We can still play a lot better, while the Cavs are being kept afloat by bad shots and some luck.  Noone on our team has two fouls.

Once Tatum and/or Morris get going we'll have a more balanced attack.

Just try and tell me that these officials are not influenced in some way by Serpentine Man to get the TV matchups they want. Celtics are getting hacked to death when they take the ball inside and no whistles at all ............... Cleveland is getting touch fouls for their shooters.

Lue switched in Thompson to the starting lineup.  And Thompson has been clogging up the lanes and grabbing offensive rebounds to keep possessions alive.  He's a freaking pesky player.  It's not easy to score paint points right now.

Cavs are shooting 51.2% overall and 50% from three. We're shooting 44.2% overall and 38.5% from three. Yet we're only down 7.

Need to calm the guys down at halftime and make them play smart ball. Hopefully those last several shots will get Morris going in the second half.

So... Cavs got a great performance from the Steroid King.

They were allowed to grab and hack and commit moving screens.

They got some nice bounces from the rim, whereas ours seemed to spill out.

We botched every play imaginable with a mix of choking and stupidity and bad luck.

And yet it's just a 7-point lead for the Cavs. That is good news for us and very bad news for them.

Cheer up, buttercup.

Lebron has 25 points in the first half. The Cavs are shooting 50+% from both the floor and three, much better than us, and we have played a pretty crappy half altogether.

Yet we're only down 7, and all season long we've been a much better second half team than a first half team. We'll take this in the second half.

Can we just please get a big dose of us attacking the rim like we did in game 1.  Good things happen for us when we are aggressive.  Look for layups, dribble drives, or drive and dish.  The cavs are still bad defensively.

Did you see the slo-mo replay of Love getting the long pass & layup plus a foul ??? Morris barely touched him, did not shove him in the back. Then I watched again to see if maybe Rozier pushed from the back. No.

They guy was barely touched and gets a basket plus free throw.
I cannot take this.
It is officially Xanex and Crown Hour.

I'll take being 7 down after how terrible we played in that first half and James going off. Have to play smarter in the second half.
LeBron was a dud for a whole quarter and we went from down 4 to down 7. This is horrible

Cheer up, buttercup.

Lebron has 25 points in the first half. The Cavs are shooting 50+% from both the floor and three, much better than us, and we have played a pretty crappy half altogether.

Yet we're only down 7, and all season long we've been a much better second half team than a first half team.
LeBron had 4 points in the second quarter and the Cavs actually made headway. How is that, buttercup? Inspires confidence?

No more early inn the shot clock threes, no more Marcus Morris fadeaway off balance super contested 3s. Just play smart.

Yeah our shot selection needs to be better.  Not only attack the rim more, but we also need to move on offense more.  Chauncey was saying that the Cavs were playing better def.  I am not sure.  We weren't moving as much.  Cavs are old, make them work on def, move, cut hard, screen hard, be quicker.

Re-quoted for truth. 

The prob is that the C's are hanging out at the 3 point line and aren't attacking the rim.  If that's the gameplan, credit CBS.  If it's not, then he has to step up, call TO's (as many as it takes) and get the guys to play what works (not just this series but both that preceded this one).

Our issue is, we've let CLE dictate this whole game.

We've actually weathered quite a bit of their runs. BUT we haven't really gone on a big run of our own. CLE goes up between 9-10 points, we answer with a few quick buckets, then they go on a run of their own. Repeat.

Need to come out firing in the 3rd.

If we can tie it or even go ahead, it may rattle them a bit.

Brad is just going to have to bite the bullet and keep playing Baynes and Al when Thompson plays with Love. It's not like we haven't started most of the year with this lineup, with Morris in instead of Tatum. Tatum can feast on the bench (Korver), too!

He is attacking the backboard quick.   A very intelligent, athletic play.    Nice move by Brown.  I guess Brad heard my suggestion to get Baynes in for Tatum.   When TT was starting it only made sense.  AL I think hates being covered by the bruiser TT.  Allows him to play love.   All that banging is an energy sucker.   Nice move Brad.  I see us pulling ahead with this line up.

This is what happens when the C's stop "settling" for 3's sitting at the 3 pt line and work the ball.  Take the 2's (and the and 1s that come along the way) and beat them 1 possession at a time.

I gotta say, we had a great quarter mainly because of Jaylen Brown.  He got us going with easy hoops, then there was the one play where he aggressively pushed the ball while everyone else on the C's and Cavs were trotting up.  It got the Cavs halfcourt D out of sync, then he kicked it out to Terry for 3.

Did anybody see smart basically shove Tatum to get back on love and they forced LeBron into a bad (missed) runner?

He does things like that a lot on defense.  Great team leader.

7 point lead going into the 4th.  I like it.  We outscored Cleveland by 14 in the 3rd.

Now we need to come out steady to start the 4th and we can take control of this game.

need a 15 point lead now

LBJ usually blocks that but dang, Rozier destroyed him there!

Lebron's tired.  He wore himself out early.  A couple of hard fouls on him helped too.

Now's the time to relentlessly run him off of picks/screens. BREAK HIM NOW! ;D

I don't think he has enough gas to take every shot in the 4th.   The story of this game is that we are really holding down James' supporting cast.  And we are making him work for every basket.

Dunno if I would go thaat far.  Bron sat 4 1/2 mins in the 2nd and that had that semi-concussion and sat out another 2 mins.  He has forced Bron to take some shots that didn't go down (but nearly did on a couple).

C's need to stay with Love and Korver.  Bron can't (and more importantly won't) do it all himself.

Horford with a 5 inch height advantage - decides to take a jumpshot ::)

Just ridiculously stupid

He did it in the 2nd quarter as well only it was a fall away jumper when he had the ball at the side of the lane matched up on Hill.  DRIVE the ball. >:(

celtics need to calm it down.  get composed and run some plays.  if we get quality shots up our chances go way up.

try to get mismatches on size/strength.

morris on his 5th foul i believe?  that is worrisome.

Love how the narrative after Game 1 has been that the Cavs merely missed shots and Lebron will just pour it on tonight and lead the team to victory  ::)

I hope we win soundly again just so I can see the mental gymnastics that these talking heads will use to justify their continued riding of Lebron.

Let the excuses begin, Jaylen and Chauncey!  ;D

Yes and what inspired the anger?  The shove?  Looked more like Smart coming to his defense and AL channeled that anger to bringing his game to another level.

Got to admit, his "oh look I'm injured and I'm agonizing in pain" strategy is smart : if he wins, they'll say he gutted it out, and if he loses they'll say he was hurt. Did the same thing with his elbow in 2010 against the Celtics.

By the way, great game from Smart and nice of Al to bring it in crunch time after having a terrible offensive game !

LeBron brought his A-game. Kevin Love actually played well and the Celtics still won.

The media may look at the macro three-point shooting, but they should know by now counting on any Cavs player besides Korver to consistently play well is stupid given the season we just watched.

I think we employed the same strategy, let Lebron do his thing and try to contain the rest of his team

I'm confused though, was it another feel-out game for LeBron?

LOLOLOLOL

The new media narrative will be the neck injury and the surrounding talent.

We'll be ignored again, but that is just fine.

Got to admit, his "oh look I'm injured and I'm agonizing in pain" strategy is smart : if he wins, they'll say he gutted it out, and if he loses they'll say he was hurt. Did the same thing with his elbow in 2010 against the Celtics.

By the way, great game from Smart and nice of Al to bring it in crunch time after having a terrible offensive game !

I'd totally forgotten about that....

Good lord, what a weasel

I honestly think the defense tonight was better than G1. Other than a few hiccups between Rozier and Baynes on Love, I don't remember a bunch of spot-up looks for Cleveland. They did an excellent job.

looking at the replay, it's a pretty blatant foul.  league's appropriate action would be to upgrade to a flagrant 2 and suspend him for next game.  of course with the way he's playing, that would probably help Cleveland

“I'm so disappointed watching Boston go up 2-0. We should have beat the cavs and as well as the celtics and been in the finals. Unlike a lot of you who think we overachieved and don't have the talent, I strongly disagree and actually think we massively underachieved this post season. We have the talent, unfortunate Freddie got hurt and Delon should have got more playing time. In the end bad defense and horrendous rotations cost us the cavs series. Boston is proving the scrub team the cavs are. We p---ed away game 1, demar lost his confidence and our rightful chance to get into the finals. Boston actually did us a favour as the only team that should have beat us was Philly and Boston took them out.

You ask any raps player and they will tell you they would have beat the celtics and I believe they would have unless the refs pulled some serious **** which they tend to do. I'm still so angry that we lost to the [dang] cavs”

NBATV is explaining to me why the only reason the Celtics won is because LeBron got hurt in the first half.

According to them apparently LeBron's injury affected every single Cavs player.

One might think that means the C's have a better team, and have advantages at multiple positions at all times. And that the Cavs play horrible defense. But no.

It's all about LeBron.

The biggest difference between a guy like Bird and LeBron is that Bird wouldn't be yucking it up in the post game press conference like Love and Bron did after a two games lost. Bird would call himself and his team mates a bunch of sissies and go on to fight for this series.

The folks who were freaking out after those trades Cleveland made were ridiculous. They got 4 role players who had done nothing in the playoffs.

What a win!

Three days to dissect what we did right and what we did wrong so we don’t start off as bad as we did tonight. Can’t give Korver open shots or Thompson offensive boards and need to continue to make LeBron work for EVERYTHING.

Keep attacking and their defense will cave. We didn’t play perfect games yet are still up 2-0. Better all around effort and we will win in Cleveland.

We showed them what we can do. Saturday we can show everyone, even the doubters, what we are made of. Take this next game, rip their hearts out, and instill fear into the entire NBA. This is a team led by Horford, but after him are 20-24-year-olds growing each playoff game into stars, while having two all-stars waiting in the wings.

Smart needs to be resigned. No discussion. Kid is a Celtic.

Yeah I was one of those nay-sayers that didn't think it helped them at all either.  I looked pretty stupid after that beat down clev gave us right after the trade.  But none of those guys has any playoff experience, none of them are leaders really.  I agree at least wade / crowder could give you leadership and experience and not just wilt when the playoffs got here.

There were two plays tonight that Nance committed two really dumb fouls.  One he slapped at the ball right in front of the ref.  You can't be at zero bbiq and do dumb stuff all the time in the playoffs.  Nance got back to the bench not long after that.

I have to give it to DA.  Even our 3rd string players all have decent bbiq.  We are truly a team that is greater than the sum of the parts.  So fun watching them develop this year.  Might be one of the best seasons to be a fan because of that.

Cause people are always saying how much better LeBron is than Bird. Bird was tough and LeBron is a baby, it's that simple. Mark Jackson even said during the game how LeBron was the best passing forward in NBA history. Bird was better in a tougher league, Oscar Robinson was better in a league that called assists tighter. I get tired of all the smoke that gets blow up LeBron's ass. He's a great player but it's exhausting hearing all the BS all the time.

On NBA.com there is an alibi evident right away at the home page, below the game score.
It says: "Celtics outscore Cavs 71-47 after LeBron injury"

We also led 72:50 in the first game. LeBron was fine.

Not sure if any else already posted this, but I loved Brad's adjustment on defense in the 4th qtr. Lebron was running the PnR with Thompson and just abusing us and then what does Brad do? He put Marcus smart on Thompson while also having a 3rd man spy and Jaylen on lebron. No matter what lebron did he didnt have a mismatch on a switch and you could tell it threw a wrench in their plans. They ended up just running around the arc and chucking up threes the rest of the way.

Just shows how versatile and how much of a beast Marcus is. A guard you can legitimately put onto power forwards and not have to worry about it. Also just a good move by Brad there recognizing that baynes/monroe/Tatum couldn't stick with lebron and finding a way to keep his best defenders on him

I RARELY quote myself but it's time to fess up.  I turned it off after the 1st quarter, mainly b/c I wake up at 5:00AM, and I had no confidence the C's would win.  The lesson:  Even though LBJ is having a great playoff run, he can't beat the C's by himself.  He is human and doesn't have the wind for an entire game.

I didn't get to see the game.  Listened to parts on the radio.  In looking at the box score, a couple of things jumped out at me.  We had 11 OReb (Smart had 3) and 5 TO as compared to 8 OReb and 15 TO for Cleveland.  That is plus 13 possessions.

Pretty good considering they started Thompson in part because he get offensive rebounds.  Jeff Green had 5 TO and LeBron had 6.  Smart was +21.

This is an amazing run by the Celtics.  I have been watching the NBA a long time, never seen a team this young (including the coach) do this well.

Brown won that game for us. Most teams get blown out in the first quarter and never recover but Brown was tough and relentless. He kept us in the game holding the deficit to only 5 points which helped us from having to come back from 20 which looked like the case in the first 5 minutes!

I was at the game last night and all I can tell you is my ears still hurt.  The Garden faithful has been bringing it this post-season.

I agree about the crowd. I thank you and the rest of the crowd for the noise. It's fantastic. And the F U JR chant is something you have to love even though there are many kids at the game but the passion of our crowd is over the top.

Brown won that game for us. Most teams get blown out in the first quarter and never recover but Brown was tough and relentless. He kept us in the game holding the deficit to only 5 points which helped us from having to come back from 20 which looked like the case in the first 5 minutes!

I wanted to comment on this exact same thing regarding Jaylen Brown. The Celtics took LeBron's best punch in the first quarter, and because of Brown's aggressiveness and ability to score, he was able to help the team keep the game within reach. I believe it helped break the Cavs will, when they looked up at the end of the first quarter and they only had a 4 point lead. Also, the Marcus Smart hustle towards the end of the second quarter, that lead to a quick 4 points, may have been the nail in the coffin for game 2.

Yeah, Brad Stevens said in one of his recent interviews that goal is to make what is normally a 12-0 run into a 12-5 run. Brown helped with that in the 1st.
