[CelticsElite]

sad part is this place is not intimidating for us like the garden is for others. no excuse not to win a game here. that arean and fans suck

To be fair, maybe it smells bad or something. Its cleveland after all

[celticinorlando]

Thank the nba for this one. Three days rest is ridiculous between games

[SCeltic34]

I don't care if Smart made that. That's terrible offense.

Cleveland's crowd is a joke.

[Celtic Fan Forever]

Call me a fool but I’ve seen us come back from bigger deficits, we can still do this! Gotta start the second half strong!

[BitterJim]

I can't believe that I'm happy were only down 20 right now

[BASS_THUMPER]

love is ridin dirty tho

good call

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

quicken loans arena?? WHAT A JOKE. fans are a bandwagoning sad bunch also.  if we cannot win here

[BringToughnessBack]

I expect double fouls and free throws, at the very least, not to mention a 15-16 point deficit after the first quarter at the absolute minimum.

That said, if Boston would actually make use of their brains, lol, beginning with moving Baynes into the starting lineup and putting Morris back on the bench, they could very well win this game, imo, but we'll see as to what happens .

Welp. Sorry I'm late, everyone. What on earth happened in the first quarter?

Flat offense and no flow- Hill hitting shots like curry

[CelticsBR]

Game over ?

Unfortunately yes.

Game was over when Brown got 2  fouls before he scored a point

Yep, which is on Brad for stupidly changing the defensive matchups and putting him on Lebron to start. Such a dumb move that completely changed the complexion of this game from the get-go.

He was not put on Lebron to start. Cavs run pick and rolls to get Brown against Lebron

[droopdog7]

Well that sucked.  Win or lose, we need to simply play better in the second half.  Gotta shake these [dang] road woes.

Missing bunnies. Not defending Hill at all. Switching our guards onto bigs. Defending like traffic cones in general.

Some of the worst ball I've seen in a while, especially after playing so well Game 2. You're lucky you missed that quarter

[celticinorlando]

Telling you guys the Q is weak sauce

Any kind of effort by Boston and they win

[jpotter33]

Jaylen has played a whole 12 minutes tonight, when he's probably been our best two-way player in this series thus far. Complete fail by the coaching staff on the defensive switch starting off the game tonight. Got Jaylen in early foul trouble, and he's been hesitant ever since.

Not winning this game with him only playing 12 minutes and scoring 2 points a half...

[Ogaju]

How much effort should go into second half?

Should CBS spend a couple of Ts in the second half?

[libermaniac]

This crowd is pitiful. Imagine how loud the Garden would be with this lead. They just react to made baskets for 10 seconds. No encouragement on defense. We need a tongue lashing st halftime and to come out with some serious energy!
