Anybody else a little bothered by what Morris did tonight

Why add fuel to a spark?

He needs to stop going overboard ...

Agree. Like if we were down 4 or it was a tie game and we needed a spark, that's fine.

Doing it while up 17 with all the momentum was just stupid. Play stopped for a while and we went cold for a stretch after it. Fortunately, CLE only cut it to 8 in that time and then we went on a mini-run ourselves to prevent CLE from coming back for good.

exactly

Lebron's recall ability in these press conferences is honestly very impressive.

Yeah I come away impressed from watching Lebron's responses in the presser.  Not just with the memory, but honestly like all these guys, Lebron has to answer a lot of dumb questions.

He sure likes this Celtics team..the major  thing keeping him from Boston is probably Kyrie.

CBS should have started Baynes in game 4

There is too much history for Lebron ever to even think about signing with the C's.  It just isn't happening.

Baynes was awesome on D all night.  We came out of the gate with a tough def mentality and forced bad shots, didn't give up off rebounds.  Best adjustment of the game.

The only thing I can see the Cavs do now to try to counteract Baynes starting is to go with game 1 lineup (and start Korver) . Spread the floor

If this happens, CBS needs to yank Baynes quickly and insert Morris

CBS needs to adjust on the fly instead of letting the game get out of hand

Game 6, 1st quarter will be huge

Predictably most of Cavs non stars were no shows tonight.  This every other day schedule now really helps the Celtics.
