Celtics (3-1) at Cavs (4-0) Game #5 11/3/16

[dreamgreen]

Biggest highlight of this game is Jaylen Brown.

Everyone else has been average to horrible.

i'm fine with losing this game if brown plays well

If the youngins get better, we get better

100%. That should always have been the mindset going into this game. This might be our most unwinnable game of the year between opponent, location, lack of rest, and key injuries.

Agreed!

Any Tristan Thonpsons out there to trade for?

LOL yea we need one.

A player like Steven Adams would be nice too

Realistically speaking, if the Celtics manage to lose by only 15 or even less.. I'll call this a "win" considering no KO, Horford, Crowder, and the second night of a back to back

Yea but $25m a year is painful! That's the going rate now for those type of guys?

hopefully stevens desides to get the core guys some rest and play the young guys more minutes, we wont win anyway

I can't watch the game but saw the box score. Cabs 11-18 on three pointers that seems to be the big difference if they shot their norm the game would be within 5-6 points.

Are they just hot or Celtics perimeter defense is poor?

Brown's stats looked nice. And NO fouls, ha ha.  I missed on my prediction there. 

Anyone want to give me a cliffs notes version of the game please?

TT could out rebound the entire C's roster by himself.     Weak bigs.

If it gets to 20+ in 4Q, I would like to see Rozier, Smart, Young, Brown, Mickey finish the game.  I don't care about the L.

Too many to this team.

Cavs are out playing the Celtics.  Yes they are hot from 3 but they are a good 3-point shooting team.  IT is playing horribly.  Amir and Zeller are giving nothing.

Jaylen Brown is play great.  AB is continuing his solid play.

Celtics even playing to their ability will not win this game they are outmatched.  Need Cleveland to go cold or a massive defensive effort which is not likely.

If Brown becomes a star we might only need to fill out the rest of the roster and Stevens would be pretty nice on Cs.

Tbh even Horford wouldn't be able to entirely handle TT.

He could neutralize him a bit but dude can rebound. C's need to prioritize a big this off season or draft (hopefully a few emerge)

That's why you try to draft them and have them young.  It's why I'm excited for Zizic.

Thanks and a tp. I guess one good thing about tonight is it is a low stress evening. No nail biting tonight.

Jaylen was excellent. You can already see he's improved
