Boston defense. Let lebron get his but contain the rest. Really doesn't take much to contain scrubs

I'm so torn. Naturally hate the Celdicks but, I love their coach and I love the way they play. Most importantly...they just whooped the LeBrons and are up 2-0. I can't believe I want them to win.

it's the same thing the Warriors are doing with Harden, who also plays the same role with the Rockets.

The only thing about the Celtics that they have yet to prove is winning on the road. If they can steal one in Cleveland this series is over

I really hope it's a sweep now. It's clear that boston is the better team. Iso ball is sooo annoying.

I'm starting to be a fan of Jaylen Brown. He's no joke.

Never count out Lebron. Haven't you all learned?

I concur. Cavs in 6

But I'm pulling for Boston so Lebron will leave

The man just had 42 / 12 / 10 and still lost

I'm not counting him out but his team just isn't good enough. I'm not sure how much more he could really do, there is no Kyrie on that team to take the pressure off.

I'm not betting against Lebron. After the way they came back and beat the Warriors for the title, I said I will never bet against that man again.

But he didn't do it alone. That's what I'm saying, as incredible as Lebron was in that Finals, Kyrie was just as amazing. Kyrie was making buckets that I haven't seen anybody make since Jordan and on top of that Kyrie hit the big shot that won them Game 7. Kyrie aint there anymore

Lebron has good players around him. When they made the trades at the deadline and smacked OKC, everybody talked about how much better they were. Lebron is great, the Celtics are just an amazingly young, talented, and well coached team. Lebron still prolly going to win this series, but he has players around him.

I hear you and history backs that up but he is still human. As great of a player as he is I don't think even he can carry them over these Celtics. I don't know if you watched the Jaylen Brown interview after the game but the look in that kids eyes is dangerous. Those kids are hungry and they smell blood. If they steal one game in Cleveland it's over bro

But he has the refs and the nba. i have faith in them. they will try and help to whatever extent the can without making it blatantly obvious

I don't think that even the NBA wants to see the Cavs in the finals again. That's a 4 game sweep guaranteed. Not only would that be a boring series, it also wouldn't generate as much revenue as they would like. Even by the NBA standards I think they rather see a Celtics - Warriors Finals because it would be a much more competitive series and it could possibly extend longer than 4 games.
