Celtics (0-1) at Cavaliers (1-0) Round 1 Game 2 4/21/15

What the freak is Sully doing taking these last second shots?!

Sorry, but that's not on Sully. That's on Thomas.

It's totally understandable that a team with the best player in the NBA is gonna get calls, but this is just insane. How are we supposed to stay in this game if we literally can't play defense and can't drive to the hoop. It's just a parade of BS calls over and over. We could beat this team at least twice in this series with even a halfway fairly called game.

We're atleast within reach. We just gotta keep fighting.

Love the grit this team is showing. For all the bombs Cleveland is throwing, we're still within striking distance. Love it.

[CelticSooner]

I really like dislike Sully's game this year. Way too big to be playing outside in.

[PhoSita]

Welp, like I said.  All it takes is a few possessions in a row where Lebron and Kyrie do their thing and suddenly the Cavs are up.

Let's see how the Celts respond.  Can they come out with the same energy and keep it close the whole way?  That would be pretty great to see.

Extremely tight rotation so far. IT, SUlly, KO, and Crowder the only ones off the bench so far?

Good.  Brad is learning you've got to have a tight rotation in the playoffs.  Can't go 10 deep.

Though I think I'd go with Jerebko over Sullinger, but as long as he picks a group and sticks to em.

i can see jerebko playing particular matchups, but not much more.

[Kevin_Dasd]

Boston, let's be real for a moment...

You got a nice little team here. Don't be so quick to ask for "star power". A lone superstar might mess up the chemistry you got going here. You just need a few more solid players or a big three like we got.

Agreed.

[SHAQATTACK]

At least we are making the LeQueen All Star club play hard .......surely more energy than they planned ...

They ll need it when the Spurs spank  their  butts

[Chris22]

Much better game than Sunday.

[Neurotic Guy]

Disappointing stretch.  Hoped C's could stop the end of half push by the Cavs. 

Cavs have to believe they can kick it up a notch whenever they need to.  Only hope for the C's is to prove to themselves that they can stop a Cavs run cold.  So far, Cavs catch up and then let their foot off the gas.   C's have to prove they can play with the Cavs for 48.

not so sure. the calls seems to be evenly poor. i am surprised they didnt call fouls on celtics on a couple of lebron drives.

Like most bullies, if you punch Lebron in the nose, he starts crying.

[BringToughnessBack]

Down by 1 after 2 quarters, I call that a victory. I love the way we came out fighting today and   adjusted nicely with physical play.  I hope we can hang tough in the 2nd half and have a chance to pull off something dramatic.

It's tough because the way this team plays just doesn't allow him to park his butt in the low post and call for an entry pass.  He's got to hang out on the perimeter and work in from there.

Kelly can put the ball on the floor and attack closeouts a lot better than Sully, and his outside shot is a lot more dangerous when the opponent leaves him open.

This is why Sully's probably a decent bet to get traded sometime in the next year.
