At some point you have to give gang green a little credit for playing better than you thought they were capable of.

See last post.

That being said Boston has played exceedingly well. They deserve a lot of credit too.[/quote]



FTFY


But nothing is over here.....3 is not 4. The Celts still have the toughest challenge yet ahead of them

If Brown had any balls or sense he would have sat the starters for the last 10 minutes of the game and let them watch. If they are embarrassed they should be. he is gonna get sacked regardless. might as well go out with a little dignity.

Ahhh, the ultimate and complete joy it is to be a Cleveland fan!! Somewhere Jobu is laughing his ass off. And at this time, Austin Kearns is the best professional athlete in the city. It is a horror show.

deep down I should be thankful. I think an Orlando series would have been 100 times uglier than the Spurs finals series in 2007. They would have beaten tha Cavs worse than they beat the Hawks.

horseofcourse 05-11-2010 10:46 PM

7 minutes into the 4th quarter, Big Baby Davis had outscored the entire Cavs team. Nothing more need be said. But I will. To be massacred not once, but twice on your home floor is a disgrace of biblical proportions. As much as it pains me, Coach Pants appears to be dead on in his LeBron analysis. going into the game, it would have appeared to most people to be a big game. LeBron was a complete no-show in all aspects of the game.

Coach Pants 05-11-2010 11:07 PM

LeBron is a monster. It's really not his fault. He's been coddled for over half his life. I knew the kid was a massive douche when this black Jesus atrocity was released...

King James. He needs to get over himself. He's a moron with athletic ability.

At least Kobe Bryant has some sense. Jordan has some sense. Magic has...HIV...but he had Kareem and Worthy and at the very least realized his limitations.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY..........

LeBron: "I spoil a lot of people with my play. When you have 3 bad games in a 7-year career, it is easy to point that out."

I officially quit. Crap LeBron, I'm almost but not quite a witness and even I can count 5 bad games in two Boston playoff series' alone in the last 3 years in just 12 games. You're barely over ,500 in just those two series'.

Probably my favorite quote about LeBron ever.

And major respect to you HOC. Trust me, it's not LeBron's ability that we hate, it's this kinda bullshit. I'm not even trying to pile on, the Celts will probably choke like they did in Game 3.

Michael Jordan would never say some lame s.hit like that.

He just doesn't have it in him. Paper Tiger.

You're on a roll.

I think Dwight Howard's pretty douchey as well.

LeBron: "I put a lot of pressure on myself to go out be great and the best player on the court. When I'm not, I feel bad for myself."


LeBron's playing 13 dimensional chess with himself.

horseofcourse 05-12-2010 07:32 AM

So can we re-title this the Dan Shaughnessy redemption thread? Bernie Kosar was passed out drunk somewhere by halftime. LeBron simply felt it. That's how great his powers are.

Game 6 is going to be one hell of a dramatic game. Both sides have enormous pressure on them. The Celtics, with this being the Big 3's last decent shot at a title, with the choke against Orlando last year fresh in memory, and LeBron and the Cavs, with the prospect of being labeled playoff chokers and the Mavs of the East, and of course the free agency question. Should be a wild night.

It will be interesting. Boston is a better road team than home team and they have played better in all 3 road games than their two home games in the series which makes no sense. But they won more road games than home in the regular season too. Even in their win at home they didn't perform all that well outside rondo, Cleveland just out-badded them. It's hard for me to have too much confidence though in a team that lost two consecutive home playoff games by 50 points. Something very ugly appears to be going on with them.

I can't remember being this excited for a basketball game in the past, and this includes the '08 Finals. Makes little sense, I know.

Does lebron come through?

I think he does. I think he does something superhuman tonight and the cavs bring it back home for game seven.

Regardless, before you throw tomatoes at me, I was totally dead wrong about this series. Boston is much better than I thought they would be.

Serious matchup problems. If Cleveland goes with starters, they can't defend the celtics when they spread the court. When they go small, they can't score and lebron has to do everything.

I know he takes a lot of heat but Doc did a pretty darn good job this series. Or maybe he just did an Okay job and Brown is just that bad.
