Get the tie or lead before half time and wrap this game like a Christmas present back to Boston

[Neurotic Guy]

Just for the ignorant among us (me in particular) -- what is the origin of the term "dime" for assist?  Term wasn't used when I was young.

Cleveland's crowd is pathetic. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but there's nothing hostile about them. Just go on a small run and they go dead silent.

[RGow8]

Feel like Brown is going to go crazy from all these drives getting stopped and eventually bang one down on Korvers head. Don't stop being  aggressive because of it is all you can do.

[Neurotic Guy]

Stops

Just keep going small and switching everything, Brad! It's clearly working just like you planned, Mr. I'm Incapable of Making In-Game Adjustments...

oh now you have done it bitter jim will come after you and say you called him a moron! LOL

I definitely get why they banned you from game threads

because you cannot seem to comprehend posts and put words in peoples mouths. you might want to stop doing that.  you should not even be in this thread the way you assume things and then get so mad about it.  Can you understand that?

I didn't assume anything, or say that you said something you didn't. You just took my exaggeration as some sort of personal attack/exact quote for some reason, and now are insisting on being an ass

Don't forget to channel your hate at LeBron, please!

lol. i am done responding to that guy, not taking bait. no worries.

Jaylen Brown is getting punked by Kyle Korver. I can't even put into words how embarrassing that is.

Put Morris on Korver and knock a couple of teeth loose

[PaulAllen]

Brad Stevens looks like a youth minster for trouble kids who have arson records..

I want to believe this is just Cleveland playing better at home but I can't. They've adjusted and the C's are still playing catch up.

I think the biggest difference is clearly the C's younger/role players playing worse on the road. Home court advantage for this team is magnified even more than usual due to how young we are.

The origin of a basketball assist being called a dime isn't readily known. ... In this sense, “dropping a dime” or giving someone a dime was assisting someone to make a phone call. Most people believe this phrase ended up transferring over to the NBA as helping a teammate make a basket

[jpotter33]

Nice Brown! Feeling it now!

[BitterJim]

Single digits again!

[Celtic Fan Forever]

Jaylen! It’s single digits!!

when JVG keeps going off on how rare it is for Korver to block anyone, much less twice in the same game, and makes an argument for a 3rd block, you need to go back an look at what you're doing wrong with your offense

Dude's making Ashton Kutcher look like he's a perennial member of the All-Defensive First Team , lol. Ugh.
