How would you guys deal with Lebron? IMO we should start Crowder to guard him. I know Bass has done it previously, but I think I would bring him off the bench to counter the small lineup with Lebron at the 4.

Harabalos remarked on twitter that it wasn't a great idea the Celtics beat the Cavs by 40. Can't get to the tweet now, but said something like "I saw Boston maybe winning one of 2 in CLE but not after this."

Anyone buy into this?

huh who's harabalos?

He's basically this guy who remarks about almost everything in relation to the NBA on twitter. Knows his stuff. I am pretty sure he privately consulted a team last year but he hasn't revealed who that was. He pretty much rips on bad NBA coaching. Interesting follow if you're on twitter.

I got no problem with the win. send a message to Lebron and Kyrie: get ready to play 40+ minutes a game.

I thought the same thing. Why poke the bear when you're very possibly going to see them in a series coming up?

What was the alternative? The C's played everyone on their bench (except Wallace, I think). I don't want the Celtics, on the court, playing any other way than their best...ever! Sure, it *might* give the Cavs some extra incentive to play hard in a possible future playoff series, but frankly I doubt it. They should be all be playing *hard* all the time, irregardless.
