Series Thread: ECF: Boston Celtics vs Cleveland Cavs

[Heatles84]

Only thing Boston got going for them is with the way they played in the 2nd half of G3 and now most of the game today, they have to think they have a solid chance at coming back to Cleveland for a G6 on Saturday night.

Yup. Thing is they went away from what was working offensively in the first half. They're playing as good of defense as they can against Kyrie - he's just playing better offensively. But if they held serve on the other end, where Cleveland isn't playing great, they'd still have the lead.

Instead Kyrie's cooking right now and they have to figure out how to stop him while also hoping Lebron doesn't start getting into a groove.

Where the hell is the foul there?

This why LeBron left Miami. Wade can't do this no more.

.....as I said in the other thread which pissed everyone off. Cavs don't even need Lebron to make the finals. As usual I was right

 

[AlpacaWine]

Refs are really helping the Cavs...

 

[Heatles84]

Damn Crowder got mugged on that jump shot....no call.

 

[bksballer89]

Got to call something there.

 

[trojanfight]

Wow no foul? Collusion

 

[AlpacaWine]

This is obviously no longer Lebron's team. Kyrie Irving is the main man, then probably Love. Lebroke is the third wheel. He can't even make an open dunk anymore. I almost feel bad for him.

Rim>>>Lebron

Will you shut up already?

 

[Heatles84]

Kyrie coming out of the game?

Yea LeBron has to ride someone's coattails in tough playoff games per usual

 

[hockey878]

Kyrie coming out of the game?

Surprises me too, don't know that it is an intelligent choice. My guess is he comes back after the official timeout. Basically giving him a 5 minute breather hoping the ankle doesn't stiffen up.


also weird call on korver there. guessing that is a makeup or something. very confusing

 

[Ojb81]

And Lebron saves the team the 99% of the time. I knew people would say something. Kyrie is fucking clutch and always steps up when he is needed but he isnt Lebron.

Lol settle down lebron fanboy, we know lebron is the man

Yeah that wasn't a foul

Cleveland is riding high and deserves the lead... but damn: that last move by LeBron was a huge palming violation. How is anyone supposed to defend that kind of shenanigan?

 

[TJL]

I like how Kyrie is "The new king in Cle", after LeBron started off 10 straight games of some of the greatest playoff performances of all time, and now Kyrie pulls off 2.


Some of you guys are legit retarded, shut the fuck up.

Kind of reminds me of Isaiah Thomas literally 50 times a game.

Sure, it's just about every NBA player... you're right about that, Hoiberg.

That one was particularly egregious.

 

[TJL]

Love is so soft

 

[AlpacaWine]

LOL. It's like the refs realized "oh shit, we called 4 fouls on LeBron? We need to fix this shit"

Swallowing their whistles when the C's have the ball. Blowing them every time the Cavs miss..

LOL, 24-27 from the field run from Cleveland. That will happen when every miss gets a whistle blown.
