Series Thread: ECF: Boston Celtics vs Cleveland Cavs

[DJ Fieri]

Thompson is only starting because he's a vet. Cavs need Nance's energy.

You must not be watching the TT/Horford matchup. He's done a good job on Horford.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Over the past 10 years...

Al Horford is 4-0 in game 7s.

LeBron is 5-0 in game 7s.

Something's gotta give.

Looking at TT scoring output and wondering why he's out there is like looking at Korvers rebounding and wondering why he's out there.

"And- its great that LeBron has 2 All Stars that are YOUNGER than he is to help carry the load- instead of 2 aging stars that just kept pushing more and more of the load off onto him."


@WiggyRuss
Both your quotes.
How is it even possible to be so full of shit and say complete opposite things on the same topic based on what team he's on?

As usual......

Best diss track ever.

No.

Nance does more offensively.

But TT has done a phenomenal job on Horford this series. Since I believe Al Horford is the Celtics MVP this post season, TT is absolutely vital. He will be needed to play big minutes Sunday.

I actually did mention his defense in my post at first but decided to delete it. Should have kept it in now that I've been called out. Guess I just want to see Nance succeed in Cleveland, he has TT beat in athleticism and can shoot the mid-range jumper.

How much is a large coffee @ $tarbuck$? My guess is around 19.95. And I ain't hittin' nothin' up, but I just might roll somethin' up.

Fuck, it's overly crowded around here this weekend. The Boulder Bolder (10 k) race is on Monday. Half the city is shutdown. Last year I think more than 50,000 ran it.

A Venti is $2.65.

So if the Celtics win...

Al > Lebron?

Boston shoots 51.4% from the floor, 43% from 3 and the Cavs won


This game came down to effort. The Cavs won the rebounding battle 44 to 31.

The Celtics are going so incredibly small right now......Baynes played 19 minutes--- other than that they played basically no big man besides Horford.

Off the bench they basically played 2 guys. Morris and Smart.


I think in a long series, and the fact that Boston has played a full series against the Bucks, going to 7, and a long series against Philly, going to 6, and then again going to 7 to Cleveland....with their injuries....they might be getting worn down.

I like that the Cavs are playing guys like 6'11" Green, Thompson and Nance. Combine that with LeBrons size and the Cavs do have an adnvatange there.

Lets hope they can press that advantage because if they can outrebound the Celtics and keep the turnovers down they can definitely win game 7

losing Love is a huge blow though. That just sucks for Game 7. I dont know how he plays- if he was diagnosed with a concussion i highly doubt they let him play. Taht sucks because his rebounding and shooting could be used in a huge way.

George Hill needs to play like a veteran and not shrink to nothing on the road. JR Smith needs to find his balls. I think JR will play well in Game 7. Hes just that type of guy where he has a big time game when you are starting to count him out.

The Celtics shot very well and without Love the Cavs needed a couple guys who haven’t been playonv well to step up and they did. Green and Hill mainly, they need to do the same thing in Game 7.

Lebron was just inbelievable. 46 points in 45 minutes. 1 assist away from a huge triple double but most importantly on 3 TO’s.

9 TO’s as a team, really good compared to late. That’s when they thrive when they take care of the ball and rebound. I mean Brown and Rozier played out of their minds and they had no Love. If you would have told me that before the game I would think they lose.

Oh yeah I forgot they have weird names for their small, medium & large coffees.

 

[DJ Fieri]

So if the Celtics win...

Al > Lebron?

You had to ask that?

That's close IMO but I personally like Hit Em Up more.

 

[Shanemansj13]

JR is getting shit on and I get it, but his energy and effort especially on defense has been great.

It used to be with JR that you only got that when his offense was going, but he's really dug in defensively. I agree with wiggy, I think he's gonna have a breakout offensive game tomorrow.

It’s just like Harden, he is not the best defender and the effort isn’t there at times. I think the defense has worn him down like it has Harden, both struggling mightly on offense.

 

[Shanemansj13]

More records for Lebron to break. Don’t let him see this

 

[Wamu]

Probably the first playoff game where 3 of the 4 new guys had good games. JC, Nance, and Hill all played well.

I really like see Nance in a Cavs uniform. How many players get the opportunity to play for the same organization as their father?

 

[tlance]

I saw a stat last night during the game that said LeBron averages 39.5 ppg in game 7's. The best ever. I have never seen a player in his 15th year be so dominant.

Not possible.

I have been told by all the haters that LeBron isn't clutch.
