Cavs (1-1) at Celtics (1-1) Game 3 5/7

[celticinorlando]

just an awful start for boston.

[ederson]

james looks scary

[Who]

Varejao's transition defense is excellent ... great job making Rondo hesitate on that fastbreak

[Drucci]

Poor defense, LeBron is hot, and the refs are not helping... not looking good so far but there is still plenty of time left. Let's refocus and play smarter.

[FallGuy]

Even I can't believe the calls tonight. Wow.

And we're missing jumpshots.

And we've missed a couple layups.

And once again we're getting nothing from Pierce.

And LBJ is hitting everything in sight.

Awful start.

[Tenacious D]

Flat out C's have to stick their shots. Refs got nothing to do with that.  CLE is gambling Rondo cant stick the mid-range J. So far, a winning card.

[Mr October]

Why does Rondo keep shooting?

He's the only one being aggressive. The other guys need to pick it up a little. But so far i'm good with things.... just keep weathering the storm

Lebron isn't going to be able to hit 20 foot fallaways for 48 minutes.

[Neurotic Guy]

It's about survival now.  Keep the game in reach while the momentum is with Cleveland and while Perk and Garnett sit in foul trouble.  Can't let it get away. 

[BigBaby]

told you cavs would get all the calls. home court doesn't matter when you play LeRig.

[BudweiserCeltic]

Rondo has been killing us offensively. Trying to do too much, zero ball movement.

And can Doc freaking stop putting Sheed on Jamison when Shaq is on the floor? It's beyond dumb.

[mahonedog88]

If it wasn't for those 4 consecutive turnovers by the Cavs, the C's could very well be down by 20 right now already in the first quarter.

This game could not have started any worse for the Celtics.

Should we really be surprised though?  This team cannot win on Friday nights at home.

[reggie35]

Even the fouls they call for the Celtics are to take away baskets. Wow!

[Who]

Cleveland getting too high too early (emotionally) ... they are setting themselves up for a fall

[Drucci]

Attack the freakin' basket!!!

[tenn_smoothie]

can someone explain all the empty seats in the Garden tonite - especially at tipoff - that's an embarrassment for the Celts.

i have never seen that in the playoffs.
