This game will be competitive tonight. A 10-point game. Celtics will have some pride. I might be wrong but the Celtics pride will show up tonight & make this competitive. - Chuck LOL LeBron told the camera "to get out of our huddle bro."
Cavs were discussing what Disney movie to watch in the locker room at halftime, and didn't want media input. Understandable.
CWebb: Lebron James is not in the running to win MVP! Can you believe that!? Marv: The Cavs went 10-14 to end the regular season. Would you put him above Westbrook and Harden? CWebb: No. Smh.. stop repeating the same talking points to fill air time.. A lot of people think CWebb is one of the better commentary people; I think he is mediocre.
never seen the nba this boring in my life, not even watching the games. just watching hardens greatest games from earlier in the season courtesy of freedawkins
meh..if it's not going to be a 40+ blowout it's not worth watching. Less than 20 points? Stop coasting smfh! It's the playoffs.
And this is why the Cavs won't beat the Warriors in the finals. LeBron can't have a game like this. Dude is gonna have to put up 35/12/10 every single game to win. Maybe more honestly.
Lebron is having a game like this because it's the Celtics. He won't be taking only 10 shots in 33 minutes against GS.
Tristan Thompson looks at his teammates as if it's the first time he's seen them ever. I think It's hilarious.
this feels exactly like the hawks game where they rested all their starters and the cavs lost. the cavs have played with absolutely no energy (but unlike that game hit so many tough shots in the first half they got a lead), and now have allowed a run at the worst time. with enough time left to complete the comeback but not enough time to flip the switch and actually play hard after taking 3 quarters off and being mentally checked out. and then just like that game their offense devolves from some ball movement to all one-on-one and dribbling out the clock and then even the guys who should be making jumpers (like kyrie) start bricking even the easy stuff while the other team gets confident. lue kind of even coaching with the same "oh well, ti's the regular season" attitude and not calling timeout or anything.
even the start of the 4th feels just like that game. cavs drop an easy steal for a 3 to the celitcs, lebron throws a pass out of bounds harden-style, korver misses an open 3. this will be a slog if they win and a straight up embarrassment if they lose. this is how you get injured. extending a series to 5 games when you should just win.
