This feels like David and Goliath without stones.


Or the blessing of God Himself.
Still don't believe in Joe.

Until we find get a Lebron stopper, Cavs are going to be hard to beat.

Still too early to panic. Brad better make adjustments with his match ups.
Suggest one. We're screwed.

Thompson is a beast. Reminds me of Barkley's offensive rebounding for some reason.

I agree. Thompson seems to perform well; especially in clutch and game time decisions. His rebounding is so critical to success of them, especially since they shoot a lot of 3's.

Hard to get motivated to watch. LeBron carving them up.

completely expected
Really? Not from me. I thought they would be competitive in Game 1 before folding laundry.

Yep, they look scared. I really did not expect that from them. I thought that they'd actually come out strong and pumped up. But they look absolutely timid out there outside of a select few.

team in full "head up their ass" mode.

to beat a dead horse here === live by the jumper, die by the jumper.  tonight we're dying.  like being dropped into the woodchipper in Fargo dying

goes back to what i have said. we need a dominant big down low to go too when cold outside. if you not hitting threes they will defend drives and not respect outside shot. at least with a post game you can play inside out and open it up.
LET'S GO CELTICS!

Maybe Danny can fire up the way way back machine and pull Paul from the year 2008

We just need to make some adjustments defensively.  Offensively the Celtics are catching the Cavs sleeping.. we're just missing really good shots.  Celtics need to literally take the offensive and attack / be aggressive.

There you go, IT. Look to score and make plays. That's why you're out there.

It's tough when LeBron can basically get to the basket for a layup on anybody one-on-one.

rat farts, I almost missed the first quarter

LET'S GO CELTICS! NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER SURRENDER!
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

The rebounding disparity is going to be even worse in this series.
