Off of Love but Cavs get the ball?
They decided not to review the play

Cause they saw it the 1st time and didn't want to have it go the Celtics way!

refs haven't been our friends tonight but C's were their own worst enemies

We blew it. We had so many chances to take this game.

Yep.
Did we ever get working eight?  I don’t see how we had many chances to win the game.

Wouldn't that potential four point play have cut it to six?

Anyway, yeah, I think that they could have done a much better job when they kept cutting it to nine or ten, but poor shot selection, as usual, killed them. Sigh.

Pathetic effort for the second game in a row. Getting outworked and outhustled by guys that have been slugs all year like Korver, Hill and Thompson.
Many here fail to give the Cavs credit. They're playing well, hustling and still have LeBron. Their rebounding really gives the Celtics problems.

Van Gundy goes thats off Love, which it clearly was. Then Cavs inbounding ball and they decide not to say another word about it like it didn't even happen, **** was that?

Start Smart and Morris next game since they switch EVERYTHING

we don't HAVE to switch everything.  what happened to fight through a pick and not letting them have the matchup they want EVERY single time?

When a game is officiated like this and there's no chance of winning I turn it off. I don't owe the NBA or ESPN anything. If ESPN and the NBA can't give us legit officials I don't have to give them my eyeballs.

Not saying the Cavs didn't play better. But players know when they've been given a free ticket

It's basically a personal curse for me to be such a hardcore C's fan.  Otherwise I wouldn't watch the NBA at all.  The poor officiating ruins the game.  It's the same reason I stopped watching NFL games.  Instead I subject myself to this crap.

Now they’re calling all these ticky tack fouls
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

Brad needs to seriously consider changing up the starting lineup for game 5. 

Baynes has played really well.  If they are starting Thompson, why not start baynes.  Morris has been ineffective against lebron since game 1.



GOODLUCK!
LET'S GO CELTICS!

Nobody expected this. Hell winning the first two at home actually still gives them a chance. Cavs weren't going to lose either of their home games from the looks of it.
