Heat (2-1) at Celtics (1-2) Round 2 Game 4 5/9

[Tenacious D]

C's definitely got exposed on their ball handling (always a problem).  But KG, how to explain it?  Went right back to the old habits.

but they could've closed this out in regulation. Aiiih

[Who]

I thought Pierce made a great drive and finish to cut it to three.

Just a shame they couldn't come up with that rebound.

Tough Loss...but series isn't over.

Get one in MIA and the series shifts back to Boston.

I expect a better game from KG on Wednesday! He won't let us down!

If only that Rondo kid could convert a layup, this series would be tied up right now.

Oh yeah blame the guy playing with ONE ARM.

By how the first 4 games have gone, do you honestly believe that this celtics team can beat that miami team 3 times in a row?  I'm gonna go with no.

[celticinorlando]

don't understand why KG didn't play post at all...but whatever. i still love the Cs. it is miami's time

[tgreanier]

I don't know if I am being foolishly optimistic, but I don't think the C's lose in game 5. Then they have game 6 at home, feed off the crowd, anything can happen in game 7.

I know this highly unlikely, but I don't think the C's go out in game 5.

I do not see any way they win game 5. I hate to say it, but this was the game, this was the season. To go out because of a missed layup...bah

[Errn]

We don't have an adequate replacement for Garnett. He's the best player on the team, but he's older. Baby cannot be trusted as a substitute.

Also, Doc was outcoached in this game as well. Why was Green in there at the end of the game? Bosh easily got the rebound over Ray Allen. When KG is on Lebron, who is inevitably going to take the shot, your blockout man is who? Just terrible play.

I remember looking at the forums earlier. People saying that they were happy to be up 3 at the half. Why were you happy to be up 3? Boston could have been up more, but they weren't. In other words, they didn't take advantage. Now we paid for it.

It makes you think of all the missed opportunities. Why did Baby play for so many minutes? Why the missed layup. Why the Pierce ISO. Where was Jermaine O'Neal?

Oh yeah blame the guy playing with ONE ARM.  

Honestly, I get that he's injured and playing with one arm.  But you should be able to make WIDE OPEN layups with one arm.  It was a bad miss and unfortunate.

He has been doing stuff like that all year. It finally came back to kill us when it really mattered.

well, he didn't shoot it with the bad arm

Well, you can believe that if you'd like. I've seen strong stuff from these Celtics over the last 30 years of being a fan.

[celticinorlando]

game 5 will be closer than people think..but miami will win it the 4th. tonight was the whole deal

[Who]

That last play in regulation was very frustrating.

Garnett never came to set screen ... force Pierce into a really low percentage isolation play against LeBron and a very poor shot attempt.

Ray Allen got in the way of KG going to set screen. Twice. In one possession. Ugh.

Um yeah, it was unfortunate he couldn't make it...but it's FAR from the reason we lost this game. By that point we should've been up by 10+ points.
