Turner just go home

Tp! I've been saying it all year.

If it makes you feel any better... you only have to put up with him for 14 more quarters.

I feel the same .....about you

Keep it nice guys.  We're all fans.

I'm rooting for them. The team is playing admirably. They have great effort. Great execution. I still expect a brutal sweep, though.  Talent matters in the NBA.  There is a massive talent gap here.

If you were rooting for them you wouldn't be declaring that we will be swept or will be blown out in game 1, etc. Great way of rooting for your team.

I can just imagine you as the celtics coach "Okay guys we are going to get blown out and swept but play hard guys!".

uncalled for slam. really not needed. we are all celtic fans and we all have different perspectives. lets focus on the game and cheer on the celtics.

Irving has hit 3 tough threes. One with Smart all over him. Another with Isaiah all over him. And that deep one to end the half. Not much else they could do.

I think they've defended LeBron well as possible considering the personnel.

Exactly. Those 3 threes are the difference in the game right now and Kyrie won't keeping hitting those. We are only down 8 vs the top team in the east in a season where we were supposed to be a bottom 5 team. We are looking [dang] good right now.

It's the offensive rebounds too. Doubling and being out of position to rebound. We can't allow Cleveland to get 4 extra possessions from Tristan Thompson alone. Put a body on him.

only bright spots in first half: Zeller and Smart (when not trying to be a PG)

rest of the team really needs to step it up.  Bass was awful on D and IT was a defensive sieve.  Turner has been horrid

can feel the veins still pulsing in my head from all my yelling at the TV

The whole team played well in the 1st half imo.

[Vox_Populi]

Another with Isaiah all over him.

that one should have been reviewed. looked like he was on the line(not sure tho) but they didn't mention it on the broadcast.

Awful quality, but it looks like a 2.

[slamtheking]

Somebody explain to Jalen Rose that having played in the NBA does not make him an expert analyst.

I have heard enough of him to be tired of him repeating cliches...

to be fair, all the announcers suck today

[chambers]

Avery Bradley where areeeee yoouuuuuu?

Am I the only one excited for Pitch Perfect 2 because of those commercials? 

I want me some Anna Kendrick...

you must be watching a different game.  first quarter they did well.  second, not so much

[Chief]

Marcus Smart, I need you to shut down Kyrie.

[SHAQATTACK]

It's taking ALOT of LeQueen and little LeQueen #2. Irving to beat the Celtics ......a lot of TWO guys ........

James has to stack his odds high in his court or he fails .

Weak mentally

true, but i give credit for calling out the lack of fouls called on lebron. i have never heard that before.

[jpotter33]

That sound clip of Smart was awesome.

Yep, he's going to make a hell of a leader for our team.

The Cavs are the new Heatles, and the League will protect them in as many ways as they can.

Yuck.

Go Celtics Go!!!
