Pitiful display… the competition they’ve had and the way they’ve played they’re not currently in the same stratosphere as the teams in the west.

They let Cleveland believe they can take this game. It's going to be hard now to put them away.

agreed we gave them new life

"Brown's gonna shoot free throws" is a sentence no one fears.

No Donovan Mitchell or Jarrett Allen on the court here at Cavaliers shootaround when the media is let in. Both are questionable for tonight’s game - Mitchell with a calf strain, Allen with a bruised rib.

Really doubt we see Allen at all. Definitely expect Mitchell to play, but he very well may be limited, which for someone who relies on his athleticism as much as Mitchell is not great.

This is bad news for the Celtics. Our boys don't respond well to fortunate circumstances.

Mitchell is out, which could be disastrous for us...I was expecting a win with him playing. With him out our team of overconfident underachievers will probably take the Cavs too lightly and think it's an easy win when it's not and play too casual  :-\

And I knew it from the start…just playing too casual, turning the ball over, not defending hard enough, getting out hustled…this will be one of the worst losses of the season if we lose this one  >:(

Joe takes a time out and comes back with the exact same lineup!!! Get Al out. Get some energy out there on the court Joe!

Not only that, but then runs the ATO for him on the baseline three. I simply don't understand the fascination with overplaying Al in these situations.

If you're going to try and get someone going, make it White.

This guy with Greg Anthony sounds like a Cavs homer.

JB's decision-making is so suspect. Why are you forcing it at the rim with three guys in there including MObley? Idiotic.
