Good start, honestly. The Celtics don't seem intimidated at all.

We're playing with house money.  We're not supposed to be here. We're not supposed to win.

We should be real loose all series long.  And thats an advantage.

Why should they be? They are the better TEAM.

Good start.

Honestly I feel like we could get layups or draw fouls every time down the court as long as we keep driving. Love can't play defense.

With this Cavs lineup lacking interior defense, Horford posting up Love is probably a good look.

yeah over and over again please.  Love is the only other reliable off threat that clev has.  Al needs to attack him down low.  I love how patient Al has been attacking his post ups in this playoffs.  I think his slow pace frustrates defenders sometimes.

Love can't get close to defending Horford

They are actually trying to play defense.  Let's demoralize their D quickly.  Please.

T-Ro!

This is an incredibly slow-paced game so far. Does that benefit or hurt us? I think a faster game benefits us against Cleveland.

I tend to agree, but preventing them from getting any easy points makes Lebron work more on each possession. It's a trade off

correct. lebron gets too many easy baskets in fast paces games
LET'S GO CELTICS!

Good to see Morris getting some shots to go in early, too. Hopefully that keeps him going all game long.

Great defensive effort to start the game.   Despite the fouls, Morris has been doing his job.

And keep posting Horford on Love.

Big Al!

Rozier has to settle down. Several stupid shots thus far.
