    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    My desire for dramatic sports moments calls for Celtics-Knicks and all that entails. Both buildings will be electric and one way or another the series will be memorable. Bring on the Knickerbockers.

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Nobody with half a brain will be questioning anything about the Celtics if they beat that Nuggets team to win a title. Now, if anyone but Denver comes out of the West, and the Celtics win, the easy path will definitely be a narrative. And as a Celtics fan, I'll take that because it comes with...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Of course anything can happen, it's one game, nothing is ever certain, yadda yadda yadda. But this is as close to a sure thing as there is in the second round of the NBA playoffs, and the Celtics should roll tonight. There are scenarios where they could lose, but not without completely beating...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    That feels indisputable. What's left of the Cavs is a totally punchless team at this point. And more importantly, you made a prescient point in another post - they had the big mental step-up game in Cleveland, and still lost. Game two without the star is when reality and mental fatigue usually...

    5/13 - G4 @ CLE - Didn't Come to Cleveland for the Weather

    Brown and Tatum have been doing this act for 7 years. It's never going to change.

    It shouldn't be this close and matter, but JFC these officials are brutal.

    They call that a foul about 90% of the time. Good break for the C's.

    I did leave to go to the restroom for a minute, but does Tatum have only one attempt this half?

    It absolutely had to count (unfortunately).

    5/13 - G4 @ CLE - Didn't Come to Cleveland for the Weather

    Tatum needs to assert himself on offense here. Enough deferring to Al Horford's calcified remains.

    This is the part where, if you have a superstar, he does something.

    5/13 - G4 @ CLE - Didn't Come to Cleveland for the Weather

    I didn't think there was even a foul on the play he got T'd up for. He pushed off, I didn't see anything the defender did that should be called. He's got to grow up and just play.
