Celtics (0-0) at Cavs (0-0) Game 1 5/1

[ChainSmokingLikeDino]

I am giving Tim Donaghy more and more respect the more I watch these playoffs.

Like I said, they had a ref repeatedly screwing teams over for multiple seasons, and nobody noticed.  That's all you need to know about the state of NBA officiating.

Roy, we got to put you in touch with Ralph Nader: http://www.leagueoffans.org/

Time to listen to Charles eat crow.


Oh and refill my Scotch.

Rondo is on Jordan mode.

Rondo being agressive! Nice Shot by Perk at the end, there.

No sympathy for Lames! Get it done, Lebron!

[RebusRankin]

Great first half. Loving the Rondo Show. KG is having a nice game too. The refs are not having a good game.

Excellent drive & weak-side REBOUND(without bringing it down, By the Perkmiester 

Nice total half of playoff b-ball there!

Q on James works!

Varejao + Hickson played a combined 13 minutes.

If they are only playing around 25mpg ... Boston is the favourite in this series.

I'd be happy with that Rondo statline from an entire game, let alone a half.

I'll give Doc some props here.  He said Rondo was key.  And overall I like what we are doing and how we are doing it.

[ChainSmokingLikeDino]

hmm, wonder who is the player of the half?

Rondo has been amazing.

Captain came out gunning, set the mood then knew to let Rondo take over.

KG played great after a little of a slow start. Hitting the boards, great passing to cutters.

Rondo. Rondo. Rondo.

Great half.

I think it was called decently by the refs. Bad call on the Rondo charge. And the Baby block. But I thought they also missed a hack we put on Lebron's arm. Overall - not terrible.

I wonder if Mo Williams and Jamison will argue about who defended worse in that first half.

Rondo was all-world. Still worried about all those hard shots he takes in the paint. There will be many more. Interesting to me that Lebron hasn't defended him much. Seems a better option for Cleveland.

This game is ours for the taking.

Even if half our team fouls out.

Opportunity is knocking hard on the C's door.  Love that there have been no uncontested 3's.  C's are rotating and playing with energy.  Lebron will make his run -- but the C's are looking very sharp.
 
24 more.  Go C's!!

wade ran over rondo from behind, mo w whacked him 2 x on the same play.....we need BBD to "FALL" on these guys...a wall of flesh in your face.....!Bang..! Whoooope.!
