@WiggyRuss come give your boy Windhorst a hug.

Ah, the irony. This is my favorite article.

Clarkson, NAnce and Hood have all been massive failures. Especially Hood. At the beginning of the playoffs I saw a tweet a writer quoted saying "He is not built for this"--- this was before Game 1 in Indiana. Man was that guy right. Hood has been simply awful.

What happened with Clarkson?

I don't love him as a player... but he always had a knack for scoring... Cleveland could use a guy like him putting up double digits, taking the load off LeBron.

its a total bitch to lose a game when they were leading- where LeBron played well, where Love played well, where Korver played well i nthe minutes he had. I actually thought TT was actually decent- not great but solid....

The rest of the guys were just abysmal. They got zero out of everyone else. Jr Smith playing just terrible really really hurt them.

Well- the Celtics have not lost a home game in the playoffs for a reason. The Cavs have faced adversity before and comeback- even in this playoffs.

Lets hope they hold serve at home and can lock it up 2-2. If not itll be an early summer.

I would much rather play Clarkson than Hood at this point. I was excited for the Hood acquisiton- a rangy shooter - guy at 40% from 3...great length, can play the 2 or the 3....but he has been an absolute unmitigated failure.

Nance and TT are the same player basically.

Clarkson is the guy that they could really use something out of.

Lebron could use an early summer

I mean this game is tough. The Cavs held Boston to 43% shooting, 32% from 3....the rebounding was practically identical.

Its a game that is a total wasted opportunity to take control of the series.

If the Cavs hold boston to 43% shooting and are even on the rebound battle and you see Love go for 22 and 15 you would hope thats a win.

 

[WiggyRuss]

I do not know if I have ever seen a softer player than Rodney Hood.

Celtics not bothered by Lue's 'gooning' remark

Would love to know what those stats were in the 2nd half when Boston dropped 59 on Cleveland.

Yep.
I said at the half that it seemed Boston
should have been down more.

No way LeBron could keep up that pace, and other than Korver the rest of the offense looked overmatched.

yeah, that early fishing trip might do him some good...

 

[Black Adam]

punked by the C's and falling to 8th in the draft. I can understand why Wiggy seems a li'l down this morning...

Only ‘goon play’ in that play was the dangerous cheap shot by JR.

It a Celtic shoved LeBron like that it would be ejection/suspension.

Whining like Philly was.
No wonder Boston eliminated them.
