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.

No no no no no.  Terry can easily shoot us out of a game. He needs to play smart, drive and dish, and only take shots that our given to him.

LeBron's been lights out but it feels like we're beating ourselves in this game. Guys have to just play smart basketball. Make the extra pass, take it to the rim, stop turning it over. No more early inn the shot clock threes, no more Marcus Morris fadeaway off balance super contested 3s. Just play smart.

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?

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.

hope u are right

LeBron James 25 first half points? He about to explode for 50 points tonight.

This is his Game 6 2012 East Finals replica performance. Without his two superstar teammates though.

Hey guys!

Where's the "Trade Kyrie" crowd??

 

Honestly, perhaps this stage is simply too big for Terry, as that's certainly how he's been playing up to this point in this series, imo. Sigh.

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.

I 100% agree.  He is painful to listen to.  I'd rather watch the entire draft lottery.

amen

[vjcsmoke]

Seriously dude?  SCREW that!  He hasn't played for this franchise in 4 years.  Get OVER IT already!

7 points down is nothing for this team.  We came back from TWENTY-TWO down in the playoffs!

Calm your tits!  Did you already forget that Brad Stevens is one of the top 3 coaches in the entire NBA?

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 .

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.

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

screw it if we lose i can play the injury excuse and that we were not expected to get past the bucks lol

Hill was a gritty defender in his prime.   He might be the reason.

Great -- now I'm confused as to which one is buttercup. 


Go C's -- Big, Strong second half!!!!

And you're surprised about this because....
