Cavaliers (50-27) at Celtics (50-27) Game #78 4/5/17

[mef730]

Brad gets an F so far for this game. What the **** is with this group out there right now is beyond me. Just completely let that run go berzerk and should've switched guys out beforehand.

YOU CAN'T MAKE SMART THE PRIMARY DEFENDER OF THE 45 LBS HEAVIER/4 INCHES TALLER LEBRON JAMES, BRAD...

Come on, Crowder! Stop with the dumb shots! Play smart!

Jeez, first you complain about Smart, then you say we should play him. Make up your mind!

Shameful performance.

[Chief]

this reminds me far too much of doc rivers ball. too manys jumpers. we need a dominant inside game when we go cold outside.

We finally get a chance for the #1 pick and there are no dominant bigs to be found.

 Even if there was, Danny would still find a guard or a forward tweener with a broken jumper.

Lol

This defense is so embarrassing, though the offense isn't far behind it. This team is just so frustrating. When they don't play with a chip on their shoulder, which is about every other night anymore, they can be beat by anyone. Just plain terrible. No heart tonight.

No heart. Bradley has been awful...and the realization that IT is just too small to bully us in big games.

Danny-
PLEASE do not resign KO!!! It makes me sick watching this stiff. And the refs hate him/pick on him too.
Only two real keepers on this team- IT and Avery Bradley. And I suppose Jaylen B. for his potential, and Gerald Green for bench spark/attitude.  Everyone else is mediocre at best.
And are we EVER going to get a center/rebounder???

Tp

How did this team make it to the top of the east?

how did ATL win 60 a few seasons ago?

some teams  are built for the regular season...but when other teams play seriously...  there is little chance

celtics  outside of a few ...are full of Matthew Delladovas.... just going to grind you out...make open shots...play smart...consistent effort

but when a team full of skilled players play for reals... then..

Thanks triboy- you said it better than I could have.  And the C's have maybe the softest frontcourt in history- even Big Baby or Sullinger would look good now, lol.

This squad against certain teams have been a "tease" ... i mean matchup really well

for example a Durantless gsw ....but this should not be translated as...this team has "it" to go really far

You have to be able to beat or have a chance to beat all the top teams in the league.... Celtics are not ready for this yet....  at least the team can beat teams beneath them and can do it with consistency

[Billz401]

AB just throwing laser beams at the rim. Can we stop featuring him like devin booker this game? He was the focal point of the offense the first 6 minutes of the game and we started out terribly due to it.. Let's let him work his way back into playing shape first jeez..

[mctyson]

Team is getting straight up punked tonight with no fight.

[tankcity!]

Games like this make Crowder expendable imo. His defense is overrated

[mef730]

And Toronto ties the game...

The same Sullinger that's shooting 32% from the field and 17% from three while averaging 3 pts per game? The same Sullinger who is out of the league? My God you people.

This Celtic team isn't really made for the playoffs. We lack overall size and toughness. Some hard decisions need to be made on some popular players.

Lets hope the Cavs are tired for the second half.

They are not.

And I agree about the decisions this summer. Of course we still have the playoffs, but hard to go all-in if we are just going to get destroyed.

The offensive rebounding has been ludicrous. How is this even possible without Thompson??

[Clench123]

Oh yea, Danny.  Rebound is not important at all.

[jpotter33]

$26 million, and he can't get a freaking rebound. This is so embarrassing. What a putrid effort.

[Phantom255x]

No rebounding.

No scorer outside of IT.

Showing completely tonight. Oh man...
