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

[aporel#18]

oh yeah! LeCrab is as classy as they come... just logged in, and up 26, he's complaining about the calls.

We need to win on Sunday, this is just another friday loss.

Go Celts!!!!

[CelticSooner]

so any predictions for sunday?

No clue. Been that way most of the season with this team.

At least we know why NATE hasn't played. So the Celtics could save 2 million dollars.

C's will win on Sunday. I would be shocked otherwise.

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.

LOL TP. Excellent point although Kennedy is still out there though .

Well, switched over to the Bruins.

Just realized why I never watch hockey... sort of like watching your laundry spin round and round in the dryer.

Watching hockey in person is great though.

[Mr October]

KG still going to the post.. we need more of that.

THIS is what we get for being SO COCKY...acting like we won this series after the first 2 games...Danny stupidly throwing that towel up---Looks like Mike Brown's team got fired up.

Or maybe you just can't relax and have bad games against good basketball teams.

Well being COCKY, leads to Relaxing...no?

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

i almost forgot - the Celts and the fans embarrassed the franchise tonite, but the officials were a total embarrassment to the league. how Stern can give those interviews about how great the league is with a straight face makes me sick.

you know [dang] well that Red told Stern to stick it a few times and would not take any crap off of him. Stern's dislike for the Celtics was obvious back in the 80's.

I wouldn't be the LEAST surprised to see Salvatore out there once more on Sunday---maybe even with Joey Crawford.

[tenn_smoothie]

why are your three oldest starters in the game this late ?

[Andy Jick]

it's been real, guys...  hopefully sunday we'll show up and play some defense...  good night, all!

[RJ87]

why are your three oldest starters in the game this late ?

Well, Paul has been STRUGGLING (4 for 15 tonight). I don't mind Doc leaving him out there to try to get a rhythm going.

KG and Ray just came out the game...

Hahah... no no.... even though Stern wants Cleveland in the finals, he still wants this series to go at least 6 games. Gotta keep getting that revenue. I'm serious. I bet the refs will be more pro homer.

[fanofgreen]

Why does Doc have this unit in??

Is this not the group of guys who got us in this 30pt hole in the firs place?

Put Nate back in, put shelden in, throw the entire bench in the game.

Having this unit in just does not making sense to me, I mean whats the point, this group hasn't done anything all night, why would you.....nvm, Im done!
