Boston will lose game 3 also.

How many times do you guys have to make these crazy, pessimistic predictions and get proven wrong before you stop overreacting to every single loss?

Denver had a cakewalk to the championship last year, yet they still lost four games along the way, including two in the second round. Relax. We'll be fine when they're not shooting way over their head and we're not shooting way under what we usually do.


I’m not overreacting at all. Role players play better at home. Those role players now have confidence.

Combine that with the fact Boston cannot guard Mitchell and they can’t win in Cleveland I feel that they lose that one also.

This team is soft.

Gonna be honest, I predicted they lose Game 3 regardless even if up 2-0, now it looks like they could be a 2-1 deficit in the series. Game 4 and 5 both become massive, need those.

Embarrassing effort overall.

For the players - just inexcusable to come out with such poor effort and focus defensively, let alone play so poorly offensively and shooting.

For the coaching - some terrible rotation decisions. Also - this is the problem with Joe's extreme three point philosophy - we simply can't win without making high levels of threes.

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
So this has to be the worst loss of the season, right? Obviously there is something at stake because it's the playoffs, but we essentially just gave up and pretty much everybody on the team sucked tonight.

I do think it's time to get concerned about Tatum. Apparently the team can't carry the scoring load every night and he is early 2000s level bad in terms of efficiency.

It's obviously not over and we should still win the series, but maybe the ceiling isn't as high as we all expected it would be. Seems like we are going to have to blow teams out 4 out of 7 games in order to win each series. That's tough to do.
