Cavaliers (0-0) at Celtics (0-0) ECF Game #1 5/17/17

[Spilling Green Dye]

What do y'all think Fultz is thinking watching this game? 

That is wants into the game.  What's the alternative?  Sitting at home on the Lakers/Suns/Philly w/o even sniffing the playoffs?

[BringToughnessBack]

Hey, if we hit 33 percent of our threes, we would only  be down 10. 50 percent and down 1. Where is KO...has he shot tonight? I would like to file a MIA on KO and everyone not named AB or Brown.

[Who]

Realize I'm going to be hated......but Brad I think is overrated. A coach should be able to get his guys to play disciplined. This team really hasn't played that way going back to the bulls series. Ill advised 3's, bad defense, poorrebounding and simply street ball play is all I've seen this team do for the whole playoffs. It would be one thing if we were just getting beat due to a gap in talent, but this doesn't need to be going down this way.

Maybe I'm just spoiled from having seen the big 3 play, but this kind of ball is nauseating to watch.

Feels like a lot of the league is playing this way. Too bad really.

Brown is a stud...needs to work on his FT shooting though

Crowders true color is coming out now....   Imagine if Celts had Hayward instead?

we need a dominant 5 worse who can rebound and play post

i am no JAE fan either

[Monkhouse]

Just not getting the respect we deserve, and that's slightly unnerving.

This seems to happen frequently to us. Calls towards us seem very non-existent, and we need to get something going....

[Dchuck]

Btw, Butler or George would not make a difference.  Draft Fultz and build a sustainable team!

[CF0022]

ok here we go.  All the bandwagoners start showing themselves. C's are going to make a run.

[ThaPreacher]

who  thought it would be a blw out 

me

not happy with CBS style of no post game and only relying on spacing even when cold outside

LUDICROUS

You can run a 4 out offense with only high screen or horns. But this type of offense needs an offensive rebounder, or at least two players who can slash. Boston has neither.
So at a 38% shooting percentage from 3, you can't afford to have an off night.

39-6 advantage by the Cavs frontcourt tonight. ouch1

The crazy thing is we just hit 4 more 3's, the game would actually be very close, and not so bad as most of us would think..

Exactly.this is a product of Celtics playing poorly. They can still comeback. And next game is a different game from this one.

It's crazy to think, but it's actually true. The Cavs are playing well offensively, but their defense is just asking to be ripped apart. We just can't hit jack crap, and they have much, much more energy than us.

This is exactly what happened in the last game in Boston, too. Never would've thought this team would be scared of another team. Hell, we gave them a much better fight in 2015.

[liam]

It's not that they're beating us that bothers me. It's that they are literally toying with us.

The Celtics are exhausted and The Cavs have been resting for a week and have the 3 best players in the game. Jaylen is playing his ass off.

reggie miller is so annoying

[SHAQATTACK]

they also have Two top five players and 120 million payroll

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

anyone who thought this series was going 6 was not thinking rationally when the wizards took us the limit...remove emotion people

[mr. dee]

Sigh... Brad, when will you learn to put Brown on Lebron instead?

[CF0022]

reggie miller is so annoying

totally agree.
