[Vox_Populi]

LeBron is amazing.

[hwangjini_1]

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

It is one game. Lets pretend we are not cb and not over react.

[droopdog7]

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....

What respect?  I have no idea what people are doing talking about the refs.

[ayer]

out come does not matter, Play a good game that's all what we need!!!

[Frezz]

Isaiah might be the most scared Celtic right now.

[CF0022]

I can't stand frontrunners.  Miller is absolutely that.  He doesn't have a ring for a reason and it's not because he played against jordan.  He was too busy admiring him.

[BringToughnessBack]

They almost doubled our score. Wow.

[Phantom255x]

Can we at least avoid a sweep. Is that too much to ask?

(DON'T ANSWER THAT)

[liam]

The Cavs don't even look that good, The Celtics just look tired.

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

we won't have 40 by half. wow

[Who]

How do you not double LeBron in the post against Smart?

You cannot give LeBron that much time. He had a good 5 seconds there to work on Smart.

After 2-3 seconds -- Smart can last that long -- the double needs to come. Smart needs help.

[Fireworks_Boom!]

This is absolutely pathetic to come out in game 1 on home court like this with such momentum behind this franchise. Throw guys at lebron and hack a lebron if you have to.

[jpotter33]

IT is done. Worst game of the playoffs so far for him. Crowder, too.

But man, this might be a breakout game for Brown. Huge game for a rookie in he ECF.

[kozlodoev]

and this is why the NBA is the laughing stock of pro sports big 4

officiating and protecting primma donnas like LEBUM

Pretty much..

Yeah, that's why we're down 25. Must be the refs. The only laughing stock around here are delirious fans

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.

good points i feel your pain. no hate from me

Didn't the Spurs get blown out?

Pop must suck too.

Our All Star is 5'9", our big is a fineness big, and everyone else are young players or roll players. What do you expect.

Plus they've missed a ton of open shots, so it's not like what CBS draws up is crap, players just aren't executing.
