Cavs (44-14) at Celtics (36-19) 2/25

[Brickowski]

I'm going to watch a movie.  Look at the C's shooting percentages quarter by quarter.  Old  men, tired legs, misses.

[Rondo_is_better]

Man, Williams is on fire...

I could make those shots. no D.

[Kuberski33]

C'mon C's it's not over yet..

Nope, it's over.  They'll lose this one by 20.  No passion at all right now.

[CelticSooner]

These scoring droughts in the second half just put way too much pressure on the defense. The C's look dog tired coming out of halftime. It would be nice to going a scoring run to put teams away in the second half.

We waited too long to sub that unit out.

Seriously this cost us the [dang]ed gamed, another poor decision on Doc time n time again

[Roy Hobbs]

Man, Williams is on fire...

I could make those shots. no D.

The first two, maybe.  Not that last one, though.

i really can't watch rasheed and davis play togther. It's just horrid. Unless Glen Davis is taking a charge or pounding the offensive glass he is usless and sheed is, well..sheed. I've seen no energy or chemistry between the two and what drives me so crazy is that they're playing together at the end of the third, beginning of the fourth quarter. It's not rocket science why we are blowing leads and losing close games. Why not Perk/ Sheed, Perk/Davis, Sheed/Williams???

I can't figure out why Davis plays over Shelden. Shelden does the exact same things on defense as Davis does, is quicker, and is more of an offensive threat. Also brings more energy.

We need energy in the 4th! Rondo, Robinson, Ray, Garnett, and Perk need to be in!

Davis + Sheed are both centers. They can't play alongside one another at a high level.

It's an irritating combination.

Does anyone else hope the Celtics miss shots when they have a 9 point lead?  I do.

too old....second round and out. boston cannot beat the elite teams in the east. 2 wins vs orlando, atlanta and cleveland in 10 games

[jadams5214]

Charles Barkley guaranteed the Cavs would come back and win this game.  Very astute observation as it was quite obvious that the Celtics had played their best basketball but couldn't put Cleveland away.

Painfully obvious that this would end up being another blown lead and the C's would get obliterated in the 2nd half again.  

The Portland game unfortunately was an aberration.  There was hope that it could be the start of a major turnaround but obviously not.  The C's still can't keep big leads and finish games strong.  

Nothing has changed...

Shelden please! Can't take BBD getting stuffed anymore.

[jdpapa3]

Rondo was dominating this entire game and then is completely taken out of it BY HIS OWN COACH.

[Kuberski33]

They deserve to be booed off the court for their lack of effort down the stretch.  Contrast this to the way they went after the Lakers.  Just terrible.

[celticinorlando]

sheed's long missed 3's killed boston as usual

[DinTN]

Even without Shaq, look at the numbers for our front court players
