timeout @ 3:47 of 2nd quarter ............. game stats were as follows:

cavs 55   celts 35

cavs 65% fg   celts 40% fg

cavs 67% 3's   celts 20% 3's

cavs 15-17 ft   celts 6-7 ft

cavs 20 rbds   celts 9 rbds

the cavs came out aggressive and determined but sloppy, the celtics came out tentative and slow

add in a celtic playoff crowd that featured at least 4,000 empty seats at tipoff and from all reports was flat for the biggest playoff game this season - used to be unheard of in the Garden.

complete nightmare and embarrassment. please boston, show up and win game 4, for pride if nothing else.

gotta agree...this was a debacle on all fronts...they lose game 4 it is over. make or break really....and i hope they have the pride to make it a game

[vinnie]

At least Yanks are only up 7-1 over the Sox. Er, make that 8-1

[twinbree]

So KG is 7-9. I thought the plan tonight was to take 25 shots?

[Drucci]

What's the point of playing the starters Doc? Oh yea, you want KG or one of them to get injured?

[celticinorlando]

so any predictions for sunday?

[hpantazo]

at least they are putting on the right commercial, the one about the girlfriend

[GreenFaith1819]

Showing some life..just a few more stops and makes.

Get this thing under 20 before 8 min mark.

At least Yanks are only up 7-1 over the Sox. Er, make that 8-1

In other news, the Bruins and Flyers are tied at 3 halfway through the 3rd.

I still think the Spurs can win that series... I like them better against the Lakers than the Suns.

[JohnBagleyValueMeal]

LeBron's going off, for sure, but I really think a difference in this game is:

O'Neal 5/7FG 2/2FT
West 4/5 2/2 FT
Parker 3/3 2/2 FT

[twinbree]

so any predictions for sunday?

I don't even want to think about Sunday. Have we come out with energy on a Sunday game the past 2 seasons? Off the top of my head I'd say no. Some of the worst losses I can remember have come on Sunday games. But of course Celtics by 10

I know no one will agree with me but it make me sick to know that we should have won game 1 but the officiating gave them the win.

In this game yes we have played terrible but we stayed with them other then the first quarter blow out and in that first quarter the officiating was crap.

I dont know about the celtics but it would make me have a terrible night if they started that in the first

[Mr October]

Well, we SUCK...but seeing Bennett Salvatore out there when the game came on---I knew Stern and his boys had their insurance policy out there...ridiculous, how we keep getting Salvatore...isn't there like over 100 refs in this CROOKED League?

Hey on the flip side, we just had the worst refs assigned tonight - a wasted oppurtunity for Stern. That means we should get some decent refs in game 4. 

Even in our darkest moment, I'm bringing a drop of positivity.

Seriously though, I'm glad the starters are still in there. You have to keep trying.
