    Does anyone here think the Celtics can stay within 15 points tonight? Seems like Vegas is trying to give money away, but we all know how that usually turns out...

    if possible, lebron is playing even worse and with less energy so far.

    Relax. There's no chance Cleveland loses tonight. I appreciate Boston's fake hustle to start the game, but I fully expect them to be blown out.

    heavy underdog coming out strong for the first few mins then fading fast and blown out for the rest of the game. that's how it usually plays.

    Bron must have run out of peds in game three. I'm sure he stocked up for tonight.

    Got to be honest. GSW-Spurs GM 1 first half, Celtics- Cavs GM3 2nd half - present has been pretty fun.

    Celtics might be better without Thomas, sorry to say. A very tough competitor but just doesn't have the size to defend. Also he dominates the ball too much so that when his shots aren't falling, the rest of the team can't get going. Now they have to play Spurs type ball and its working a lot better.

    Jerebko jacking up airballs from deep and missed 3s that turn into fast break points the other way.

    Anyone going to the Cavs forum?

    Any "Lebron threw away the game. I think Compton gangsta is holding his family hostage"

    Why didn't Celtics play like this on their home floor?
    Is the answer simply that Thomas (probably hobbled by injury as well) was holding them back?

    If Celtic can win 2 games and make this a 6 game series, Thomas is gone. There's no way they are going to keep Thomas if C can win 2 games without him

    LeBron getting jipped by the refs.

    Either way this playoffs is pointless. Golden State will sweep whichever team advances. Also losing wouldn't be too bad for Cleveland tbh. They need to fire Lue and get a real coach.

    Cavaliers are done. Irving or Love need to step up or they will lose this series.
