Lolol Javale Mcgee 7 for 7 and 15 points tonight.

Where you at Danny Ainge?  :'( This is how a #1 seed should be doing against a #8 seed.

With the amount of spacing created by Thomas and Curry, I bet olynyk could score that much on the warriors

KO will probably start to be a good player once he'll sign with the Raptors someday.
I like KO but he has nothing to do with the Cs and what being a Celtics means.
Confidence issue, no consistency, bad fouls. And I never heard about how hard he worked off the court. Doesn't sound like a good future for him. And I'm not talking about his hair and goat beard. Juvenile at best, sorry.
This season was supposed to be the one where he shows what he's made of.

I'm moving on, same as I did with Sully in September last season.

What about all the times he was used as a stick to beat up Sullinger for not working out in the off season?

No working out  hard and not working out at all are completely different things

In 7/8 couples the higher seed went through.

Clips giving it their best to be the only surprise of the first round.

Raptors not attacking the rim and the Cavs make them pay.

Sigh I really thought the Raptors were going to give them a decent game.

Ibaka is making a huge difference.  If only we'd traded for him.

Raptors sagging the 3 point lane too much. They gotta be better than that, especially with Lebron on the bench.

I am only following from my Phone so it is hard to say how he is really playing. He has 9 and 4 halfway through the second quarter which is obviously nice numbers. On the flip side Love does have 11 and 4 so maybe he is giving up as much as he is getting? Their biggest issues seems to be on defense where the cavs are on pay to have more than 60 by the half.

Edit: Looks like just hit another 3...

Raptors should have kept Biyombo over JV. He's been getting killed on pick and roll and cannot stretch the floor. At least Bismack provides a legit rim protection, solid rebounding and much provided energy for the team.

Call me crazy, but if we play the defense that we have in the past five games, I think Cleveland is beatable.

We matchup well with their perimeter-based offense given our perimeter defense, and their defense is still in shambles, 13th in the postseason at a 111.0 defensive efficiency. If we defend like we have been and just don't go ice cold in games like that one Chicago game, I really think they're beatable.
