Hey guys....just wanted to say that I had a lot of fun chatting with everyone during the Cavs series.  This will probably be my last day visiting for a while.

Great game yesterday.  I couldn't ask for more out of LBJ.  He played a great game, he just had no help.  Here's to hoping that the Cavs finally get him some talent to play with.  I thought the Cavs were going to pull the game out after his steal of PP and dunk.  I can't believe Delonte missed that wide open 3. 

You guys finally got the huge game out of PP.  Thought he played very well yesterday.  I think the fact that he didn't have to guard Lebron the whole game really helped him out.  Lebron played very tough D on Pierce and he was hitting all his shots.

Final comment, how often does PJ Brown make that jumper?  1 out of 30?   :)

Good luck against Detroit.  All fo you should be having nightmares of Ray Allen trying to chase Rip Hamilton right about now.   :)

Hey, take care.  Hopefully we see you around here next year.  That was definitely a satisfying win, that's going to go down in Celtics lore.  You guys just ran into the buzz saw that was Paul Pierce.

Thanks Mac.  You did a classy job standing up for your boys. 

I'm sure there will be more playoff battles ahead.  I don't know how far back you go, but seeing the highlights of the 1992 series where the Cavs took out the Celts was tough to watch.  Not so much because teh Celtics lost it, but because it was Larry's (Bird, not Nance  ;) )last game.  He could barely move with that back of his.  The Celtics actually played better without him in those playoffs, and that was kind of sad too.

BTW, in his prime PJ hits that shot at a pretty high percentage, and he's starting get it back the more he plays.  Good sign for the Celtics.  He was huge yesterday.

Yup

you aren't the only one thinking that on that steal. that was a massive play by LeBron and he had the game that i think we all feared.

thankfully Pierce was there to answer.....

not sure what your team needs or how to get it....Smith played a lot better than i thought he was going to play. maybe try to bring him back. also gotta sign Gibson...

good luck with the offseason. Lebron is only going to get better and better...and the team played a great series.

Thanks guys.

I was around for the 1992 season.  I loved that Cavs team from that era.  I grew up idolizing Mark Price.

Next year will be very interesting for the Cavs.  Lebron is already asking for some personnel help...hopefully the Cavs can get him some or he very well may leave for a better team

...was just thinking some more about PJ's shot on the way in to work and remembered Perk's baseline jumper.  NOW THAT WAS A SHOCKER!  (not as big of a shot - though they all seemed big yesterday)
