This is the big bad juggernaut that everyone is supposed to be afraid of? Are you serious? Go run last with a $4,000 claimer.

Explain what? Are they supposed to blow everyone out every game?

Right, so MOV means nothing when it's the team you talk up. They're struggling at home to put away an 8-seed that should've been dead to rights after Game 4. If they're as great as you say they are, this game never should've been in doubt. You can't just say how awesome they are, then ignore their mediocre performance in this series except for one game. That's Shaugnessy analysis.

Give me a break. This is the NBA playoffs, not Wake Forest-NC State. Chicago has played well, perhaps you havent noticed but James has been quiet on the offensive end. Perhaps the elbow he injured the other day is bothering him?

Your argument is typically weak. They arent dominating... ooohhhh they must suck then...

It's the NBA. Mediocre except for one game pretty much describes the Celtics against the Heat too I'm pretty sure. I am confident the refs will give the Cavs the series. Aren't you?? Shaugnessy forgot about that. I know you never do however.

Sorry, I'd love to take the Cavs seriously, but this game just isn't on the level. Say what you want, that play where LeQueen smacks the ball out of Baby's hands out of bounds and the ref points the Cavs way was just the final nail. This isn't going to be allowed to happen.

Then LeBron travels twice on one play and ends up on the line. It's terrible comedy. I'd really like to enjoy this series. Pierce clearly fouled by LeQueen on a drive down 96-93, no call.

And if you think that diva is actually hurt and didn't shoot that FT left-handed solely in order to play up this injury angle, you're a goddamn idiot and you should die as soon as possible.

Pierce had a tough second half. The celtics, defensively, had a tough second half.

It really is about pace isnt it? If the celts let them run, the cavs will beat them easily. They need to make this series as ugly as possible in order to have a shot.

[ateamstupid]

My one request: Everyone, stop talking about the elbow. It's a built-in excuse that he gave himself for when he ****s up, and if he doesn't **** up, he gets the hero role. The drama queen gash clearly isn't hurt, or at least not enough to significantly alter his abilities. Stop it. No more.

Post #72

Mo Williams was getting worked and manned up. Otherwise they're toast and still might be. He's too god-damned slow.

That said it's a concern for Boston that Rondo has 27 and 12 and they still lose.

Doc Rivers sucks btw and should be fired after this season.

This is all true, but pretty ironic coming from a fan of a team that contains both Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett. Pierce makes LeBron look like a rank amateur in the drama quieen department.

Yes it is obviously a ruse and everybody knows the NBA is fixed which is why they pave the way to the title for Cleveland every year...

Refute that those calls were terrible or shut the hell up.

Go ahead and tell me what the hell that has to do with LeBron James and 2010. I'm waiting.

The only calls I remember the refs missing was a charge that Williams drew on Rondo and the offensive goaltebding on Shaq on his putback with 120 to go. But the refs were hardly to blame for Pierce's sluggish game or Garnett fading down the stretch. And who was checking Williams during his one man rally? There are lots of reasons teams win or lose but the refs are rarely the cause. Last night was no exception.
