Cavs (48-12) at Celtics (48-14) 3/6

[Kwhit10]

This first half is really making me very optimistic come playoffs if we meet the Cavs.  I always thought the Cavs had a much bigger front court who could dominate the boards with Z, Ben, AV, and now Joe Smith.  But man has our guys been dominate in the paint tonight.

2nd team foul. Oh boy.

Then again, other than 1 or 2 bad calls, the refs have been pretty even, so. . .

[jimmehx]

Delonte West with the flop. Good call.

Marbury is always the only one sitting down when the whole team is standing lol. Doesn't feel part of the team yet.

I hope it's just that he doesn't feel it yet, not that he's surly or something.

We've gotten nothing from ray offensively thus far... its basically our role playing bigs doing all the scoring..

Big z cotinues to be annoyingly efficient from midrange against the celtics...wear him out already!!

32 pts in the paint!

Perkins looks good on offense too.

We need to defend that step out by Z better though.  

[jimmehx]

Ray has been disappointing today. He wasnt fantastic against the Nets either except for that clutch three.

[USG]

Paul Pierce! Stop that run right there!

Oh, 3 second. Never mind. Still, nice shot.

Ugh. So many 3's all of a sudden.

[Roy Hobbs]

Sigh...  that's two quarters in a row where we squandered bigger leads.

[USG]

Celtics cannot close out. It's baffling. Whenever something is coming to an end in one way or another, bam, away goes the lead.

Still gonna be up at the half barring shenanigans. And how much more can you ask for minus KG against LeBron.

[TatteredOnMySleeve]

Typical Cavs...play medicore basketball,  just for Mo williams to make shots and get them back in the game

But typical celtics also (lately), give up leads at the end of quarters after dominating the game, only up 2..should be up 15

I know, it's frustrating.  How can they let Mo get 8 points off of open shots.

[RebusRankin]

Bad close at the end. Stinking Mo Williams.

Oh and Lebron was hand checking Pierce before his steal. I guess when they changed that rule it said "Players cannot hand check unless it Lebron James."
