Completely disagree. I don't think the Celts have enough gas in the tank to finish this game. If Boston had more energy and spring, they would have jumped to a 10-12 point lead to open the quarter while the Heat's offense was mired in mud. But they are running on fumes. This is Miami's game to win. Wade and LeBron need to attack and go to the FT line. Celts are just a 1/2 step slow on defense (which is why the Heat are already shooting FTs) and their offense is junk.
both are 2 of the top 5 defensive teams in this L. this is the defensive showdown we have all been waiting for.
this would practically be the first big close game they win this year. i know not to get my hopes up. edit: and right on cue wade runs a terrible possession for a lebron bail out 3 and delonte west makes another big shot. he's just not going to miss. nobody misses against miami late in a close game. shaq will probably come in and hit a 3.
West with the 3. Good for Boston but none of the big 4 has much to offer. PP cannot get to the rim and draw a foul because he's dog tired. I know Miami's record in close games, but they have a clear advantage now. I just want the Celts to somehow pull this one out to extend the series to 6.
