We've been blown out before....in the playoffs... by the cavs....in game 3

[lJesterl]

in the 2008 playoffs in game 3 the cavs killed us by 24. We went on to win the series. Given it wasnt a home game but I dont feel like the garden is home anymore so to me its the same thing.

I feel good about the series. down 1-2, should be 2-1 but its not. We have out played them 2 games to 1 imo

We got this in 6, maybe 7

The Cavs aren't going to play as badly as they did in the first two games again.  I'd wager the Celtics aren't going to play as well as they did in Game 2 again, either; if Rasheed - a 30% 3pt shooter - doesn't go on a hot streak from 3 in that game we might not have won.

In any case, it's a nice point but I don't really think the situations are similar at all.  The Cavs rediscovered their mojo tonight.  The Celtics split the first two games when the Cavs didn't have their mojo.  I'll be pleasantly surprised if the Celtics win 1 of the next 3 now that the Cavs have it back.

(I think we'll rebound, and with force ... but I'm one of those "blind optimists).

Lebron is clearly way better now then he was 2 years ago.

West is also not the Cavs' 2nd best player right now like he was 2 years ago.

I still think we win the next 3 and face Orlando.

Really? Wow. I'm genuinely surprised.

Why?

You don't like Orlando to beat Atl?

negativity, negativity, negativity

not one single time this year have i jumped off the ship and said we where not going to win it all or that we are done, etc

i've kept track of every single person on here that has and it makes you wanna puke. if the ship goes down(i highly doubt it) ill sink with it

we are beatin them even with this past game, they can't beat us, it is impossible for the cavs to shoot like that again in the entire playoffs + finals, just isnt going to happen

OK,
Trying not to over-react. It's just one game, lose by 1 or 31 doesn't really matter.
But PP and Ray sure sucked.
Last night the AARP C's showed up.
I still think the C's are the better team, but they'd better take some extra energy drinks on Sunday.

[celticinorlando]

but in that situation, they were up 2-0 and won both at home. this team has been blown out twice in boston in the last 5 playoff games (last night and game seven vs orlando).

i hope they rebound sunday. if they do...then the series becomes a series again. I really don't think james will continue to make everything. i dont think the cavs can play any better and i dont think the Cs can give any worse effort than last night. if we see the same effort in game 4 from boston....then i will be highly disappointed that they quit
