I think Olynk ripped Love's shoulder out of the socket because he was jealous.

i mean- isnt Olnyk basically a homeless man's Kevin Love in a lot of ways?

They had a talk show today here and they were trying to find any female callers who would go out with "the Knockout" KO . No one called in........

Sounds like Kyrie is gonna get the bulke of the assignment on guarding IT. Lue said he doesn't like JR on point guards, so he's gonna keep JR away from IT, but he also said he's sticking with his starters. Shump will get Isaiah, though, whenever they're both in the game.

They wont be able to guard IT with Kyrie for heavy minutes. They will need to double and trap at times too, as Chicago and Wiz did these series. Cant let IT take this series over

The Celtics biggest problem will be looking past these bums and worrying about GS. Hopefully they can stay focused. Celts in 3.

Have I mentioned how fucking awesome you are lately?

In the series and with the pingpong balls.

He's never been a great rebounder.

His best year of college the most he averaged is 7.

Obviously, Minutes played has some part in his NBA stats being average.

But, I think he's more of a partially aborted Dirk, than a skid row Love.

Maybe Olynyk will close out hard on a LeBron jumper and roll his ankle

in the Toronto series- DeRozan said that the Bucks had trapped him just like the Cavs did- but the difference was- LeBron was playing free safety to cutoff the pass from IT to the presumed open guy.

With IT's size - once the trap comes- he better A. better give up the ball quick, or B. attack it and split it right away---- because if he doesnt- hes gonna have a hard time getting the ball to the open guy- with his size, and with LBJ playing an Ed-Reed-like free safety.

Game One should decide this series

Celtics will have a chance to jump on the rusty Cavs, much like the Spurs would have beaten the rusty GS if Kwami not gone down

If the Cavs take Game one, ill be finally convinced that Lebron and the boys are on a total mission not to lose a game until they face GS

Seems they are determined to be as rested as possible for that series

So the series will be over after game 1 if the Cavs lose? And I think you meant Kawhi & not Kwami Brown.

Not at all, Cleveland is winning this series, period

My point is, Celtics can make it semi-interesting with a Game one win, prob their best chance at a win

Or Cleveland takes Game one, this series goes 4 games IMO

I agree about everything except your last sentence but yeah if Boston win game one then they put a lot of pressure on Cleveland to win game 2 if the Cavs really want to turn this into a semi short series. Winning 4 straight after going down 0-2 is pretty difficult

Yeah I don't see the Celtics pulling off the upset either.
