Cavaliers (0-1) vs Celtics (1-0) ECF Game #2 5/15/18

The saving grace of this game is that listening to Jonny Gomes trying to call the Sox game on the other channel is in fact more aggravating.

Naah it's just you.

Celtics need to make adjustments.  I trust Brad to think something up and organize the troops.

Looking forward to a great second half. 

We are very much in this game and can come away with the win if we play the right way for the last 2 quarters!

feels like we are down 20.  can we play smart ball consistently and just make other teams beat us?

[jpotter33]

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. We'll take this in the second half.

Horford has been too silent in the 1st half. Celts need to go to him more

he can't get passive

[blink]

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.

Hey guys!

Where's the "Trade Kyrie" crowd??

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.

LeBron had 4 points in the second quarter and the Cavs actually made headway. How is that, buttercup? Inspires confidence?

THANK U!

We need Scary Terry to show up. Drew Bledsoe is shaking his head right now... 

nah we need heads removed from rectums

That would be a nice start, lol, but I'm afraid that we're just not smart enough to compete with Lebron...unless, of course, we can fly in Rondo at halftime, lol .

[Vox_Populi]

Not a good time for Rozier to become anonymous. He missed 3 wide open threes in that half, if I recall. We're gonna need his shooting.

Yeah, it does. Because the Cavs are playing about as good as they can, while we're playing some pretty dumb and crappy basketball, yet it's a three possession game.

We'll come out better in the second half, as we have all season long.

[Neurotic Guy]

C's have been a strong comeback team in worse circumstances all season.  Need Terry to deliver.
