2024 NBA Season and Playoffs

[SparzWizard]

Seems like this playoff run is a revenge tour for the Celtics.

First Miami

Next up Cleveland.

Need to avenged the 2018 playoff loss. Even though there's a been a handful of times they've bested us. But that one hurt most.

And then the Knicks, should they get far. Payback for 2013.

Whelp it’s Celtics vs Mitchell

Mitchell is awfully good. Will Jarrett Allen be back?  No cakewalk. Mitchell is clutch and Mobley/Allen are solid bigs.  Also, Garland is very good despite no show today.

Celtics in 5 or 6. Those guys are all banged up. Take advantage of a tired and beat up team

Neither Mitchell nor Banchero have gotten much help today.   If I was the Magic, I would make someone else other than DM beat you.  I am not convinced there is a 2nd guy who will step up.   Same with the Magic, Cavs have sold out a bit more to stop Banchero and it has worked in the 2nd half.

Feels like this game is the Cavs to lose.

Orlando needs a good lead guard who can take some pressure off of Banchero. He's so good already, would be nice to see him with a playmaker that can get him some easy looks.

So maybe I was wrong, Struss with (2) 3s down the stretch in the 3rd quarter.   Cavs getting more from their other guys than the Magic right now.  Yes Orlando needs a 2nd banana for Banchero to take the pressure off of him of creating off the dribble so much.

Thompson really moving a lot on that screen that gave DM the last 3....do the refs call any moving screens in the playoffs?

[Atzar]

Mitchell is a good scorer and he has a lot of fight in him but it's tough to continually watch him take tough shots instead of setting his teammates up for easy ones.  It's no mystery why it's so hard for the rest of the Cavs to get a rhythm going.  This isn't new either... Mitchell's Jazz teams had the same problem. 

[Neurotic Guy]

Banchero is a very mature player for a 2nd year 21yo.

[celticinorlando]

Cavs will get a game or two but I really see Boston getting up 2-0 on them in a hurry.

Cleveland not a good road team.

Allen, Mitchell and Mobley are all gimpy.

Cavs bench is no bueno

Win games 1,2, 4 and 5.

Maybe Magic got a run left before they loose

[Who]

F Wagner now 1-12 FGA 4pts.

[celticinorlando]

I don’t see how the the cavs guard rhe Celtics.

[celticinorlando]

Mitchell is a free throw merchant. Flops like a fish

[Who]

D Mitchell = 37pts 9reb 5ast 1stl 1blk
vs
Banchero = 36pts 15reb 2ast 3stl 1blk

[celticinorlando]

I’m sure the cavs fans will start the “we want Boston” chant at any second.

[Who]

F Wagner = 1-13 FGA
Suggs = 2-13 FGA

Combined 3-26 FGA. That is where the game was lost.
