Celtics (4-0) at Heat (4-1) 5/1 Round 2 Game 1

[PosImpos]

Hey how is there still a game going on?  I was told it was over 

Nice mini-run, we're coming out of halftime playing much more solidly.  Gotta hold it together and keep the plays coming though.  But this one's not over by a long shot.

Any run the starters go on will be counteracted by the bench, unfortunately.  We'll get it down to 7 and then the bench will have to come in and it'll get back to 14 or 15.

Can I get tomorrow's lottery numbers when you have a chance?

Seriously, not to toot my own horn, but this is uncanny.

[RJ87]

Ashame. That flagrant foul killed our momentum on the comeback and will probably be rescinded by the league.

[vinnie]

Officials totally screwed us when were making a run. We had the Heat worried and then some just horrible calls. That flagrant call was disgraceful..

Celtics totally outplayed today. Blaming refs is silly.

[Tenacious D]

Officials totally screwed us when were making a run.

Yeh, maybe but face it the C's are doing a fine job by themselves.

[Spicoli]

I don't think Perkins is that good, but Jeff Green is almost useless out there, and this coming from someone who likes Jeff Green. I don't mind trading Perk, but they could have at least tried to trade him for someone who can leave an impact on the game and make a difference. The bench is hopeless. I'd love to see Pavlovic and Wafer get some burn. Literally can't get any worse from that unit anyway.

[Drucci]

Nice 3 by Pierce, we need anything at this point. Down 14 entering the 4th, we would have to do a LOT of things better to win this one but it's still possible. COME ON C'S!

[snively]

Did rondo dress today?

When Rondo's been on the floor, the C's have been a much better team.

[ManUp]

Rondo got tripped by Anthony, Breen. My God do I hate these announcers.

TP

Yes, Breen is so subtle with his shots most wouldn't notice, but that's the type of stuff that gets me p---ed off.

[PosImpos]

This is not what I expected to see tuning in at the end of the 3rd...wow. Heartbreaking and embarrassing.

Are you really that surprised?  Really?

[celticsclay]

I am at a loss for words. I think we are giving paul pierce and kg kind of free passes for being non factors. I agree that baby and jeff green have sucked, but this is not a 14 point game if kg and pierce are shooting normal.

KG 2-7
Pierce 4-11 with 4 turnovers....

[celticinorlando]

14's better than 17.   

Need a huge first 5 minutes of the 4th. 

they have cut it to 4 and 5 only to allow miami to take the game back over...afraid it is over

[hpantazo]

Rondo got tripped by Anthony, Breen. My God do I hate these announcers.

and of course, lebron was allowed to argue the call like a whiny little girl without getting a t, yet JO got a flagrant for bumping a guy who was cutting through the lane

[CelticSooner]

James Jones 19 points. Never expected that.

[PosImpos]

I don't think Perkins is that good, but Jeff Green is almost useless out there, and this coming from someone who likes Jeff Green.

I'd love to see Pavlovic and Wafer get some burn. Literally can't get any worse from that unit anyway.

To be fair to Danny, though, I don't think anybody predicted Jeff Green being this bad.

[Chief]

Total domination. This is embarrassing, just like the last game against the heat.

Like I said, looks like they got our number. They've neutralized Rondo, dominated the post and closed off jumpers. Young and athletic helps.

Yeah, certainly looks like the Heat have finally got the Celtics all figured out.

If they can beat us with Shaq, I'll agree. But for right now, they just defended home court. It's what they are suppose to do. We only have to get one in Miami.
