I am staying away from the game threads for this series simply because of the over the top reactions. I just do not find it enjoyable reading people here call our players terrible insults, see the green lettered warning about swearing all over the place and declare the game and series over all because the Cs fell behind by 6-8 points against the team that is the current day dynasty in the NBA.

There is nothing fun about any of that.

I would love to take a census of CS members who claimed that they were "done with this team" after Bucks game 5 and Heat game 6!  What percent do you think hopped back on board?
Yup

I'm hoping for a C's blowout so the overreaction is an overwhelming sea of positivity here.
my wish came true

Here's a massive overreaction: imagine if Tatum continues to suck but everyone else plays well and Marcus Smart, the guy that half this board has wanted to trade for the last 5 years,  becomes the DPOY and Finals MVP?
