Cavaliers (3-3) at Celtics (3-3) ECF Game 7 5/27/18

[tstorey_97]

They put on a hell of a season.

This shooting thing began in game three and they never broke out of it.

Two great shooters will hopefully be back

[Who]

So proud of this team. Incredible effort on the season. Amazing accomplished to do as much as this group has done in the playoffs. Undermanned. No Kyrie. No Hayward. Came within inches of making the Finals ... and if not for a freakishly bad shooting night, they would've done so.

One of my happier moments following this team in a good while.

Why would Lebron leave Cavs? He just keeps getting to finals- Sickening-

[vjcsmoke]

Wow James showing the respect there to Tatum and then Brown.  Well.. Cavs move on to the Finals.  Ugggh.

This young team played hard but just couldn't finish it out against one of the all time game 7 performances by James.

[PaulAllen]

Didnt get killed by Green, Lebron, or whomever... they shot 18% from three and most of them were uncontested

[angryguy77]

Game is on the coach for not getting his guys to play smarter.

Terry Can't be gone soon enough.

I don't care that we made it this far despite the injuries.
They is ZERO excuse to allow your guys to play so dumb.

[Rosco917]

I think the Rozier can make Kyrie expendable talk is now over.

[TheLegendaryClub]

Takeaways:

Rozier in this series was exactly who he's always been-- a streaky shooter who can light a team up when he's hot, and shoot you out of the game when he's cold.

Smart was also exactly who he's been: awful shooter but excellent teammate who never quits on a play.

If it's a choice between the two, trade Rozier and re-sign Smart. When we get Kyrie and Hayward back I'd rather have Smart's grit over Rozier's scoring.

Al did all he could, but he needs help. His teammates stopped going to him in the post in favor of bricking threes, and that's what cost us the game.

Tatum is going to be a star. 

Cleveland didn't win this game-- we lost it. Terrible performance. Inexperience on display.

That said, it was a hell of a run and I'm very proud of this team's resilience. We have a bright future!

Rozier and Brown go from the best non-Lebron players on the floor in game 6 to absolute trash in game 7. We had a lot of chances at the end, but nobody except Tatum could hit a gd shot. And, why Brad thought it was a good idea to put Rozier back in for Brown is beyond me.

Incrdible.

Just inexplicably poor decision-making by Brad tonight. Literally did nothing all night long, and just like in game 6 his poor timeout calling led to them getting big runs. And let's not even begin to talk about his hesitance to rein in Rozier and Brown who went 6 for freaking 32 tonight.

Overrated coach, especially on here. Couldn't even beat this Cavs team without Love on our homecourt because he's too passive and soft to discipline and control his effing players.

[mainevent]

How many of you still want to trade Kyrie & Gordon? Foolish Chatter

[slamtheking]

Well. Lebron is that good. There's no shame in losing to him.

This has been one amazing season. A total success in my eyes. I love this team.

James did not beat us in this game. 7 for 39 beat us.

Lebron came to win.  only got help from Jeff Green but that was all he needed against a pathetic C's effort.  what killed them was a combined 13-60 from Morris, Brown, Rozier and Smart.

[86MaxwellSmart]

we should have been up 20 freaking points in the 2nd...but we wasted a million possessions.

[PaulAllen]

Why would Lebron leave Cavs? He just keeps getting to finals- Sickening-

yea hope he stays... A full Celtic team will demolish him

[celticinorlando]

Let’s go Warriors
