They threw up a ton of miracle shots with the shot clock running out all night. We on the other hand couldn't make a layup.


i see, i guess i dont recall those :(

The fact is these losses would not as mean much had they beaten the Hawks at least twice because every team has lost all road games. Now the celtics are labeled as players who cannot play on the road when they need to. I mean scoring 12 points in the 4th is a joke.

They have already lost 5 games on the road which is half of the total amount of road games they lost in 7 months. Even if they did get by the cavs any of the remaining teams will beat them.

I can't believe you're actually looking foward to game 5. All game 5 means to me is I have to whatch the celtics play another game at CLE :(

I don't get excited at all whatching us on the road because I know our offense is going to be weak shots all night long. Our defense is great, our offense can be shut down and we're just jumpshooters.. put a concerned effort into defense and we'll dissapear.

CLE made lucky shots? We didn't make A SHOT.

Game 5 is basically a must win for us. If we lose I dont like our chances of winning on the road in an elimination game.

we suck. flat out. i agree with maxwellsmart & delmontewest's posts.

doc has killed us. our rotation sucks. we were real lucky to get 8 points from brown. but how could leon powe get only a few minutes? he was one of the biggest reasons we are this far in the playoffs b/c of his hustle...he's the ONLY one who battles down low & fights for every loose ball. & sit down cassell & bring back in house & TA. we were the best team when we were playing those guys. this is pathetic.

there's no excuse for losin control in the 4th qtr. we were in a great place to steal this one, then we cant buy a effin basket.

like i said from the get go....cleveland wins this in 6. they will steal game 5 & of course they'll win game 6 b/c we cant win on the ******* road for nothing.

ray & paul pierce needs to pick it up. especially pierce. he's supposed to be our best offensive player, but to me, it looks like KG throughought the whole playoffs. PP has disappeared. i dont want excuses, they play jus as good defense as us, yet they can win & play offense. so dont gimme the "we're wearing ourselves out on the D end." bs.

this is very frustrating. even tho i predicted we'd lose this series, its still frustrating b/c we're such a more talented team.

game 5 is a MUST WIN! screw the whole "boston doesnt have to win a road game" B.S.! they DO have to win a road game. they cant go 7 games each series. WIN A ROAD GAME! play with some intensity & like your backs are against the wall. this is the playoffs. geeze

Who in the **** world is going to trade for Ray? He's got like 2 to 3 years on a 16/17 million dollar contract. Creaky ankles and gets outplayed by Wally "glass" Z

we better get to the finals.If the cavs go to the finals again and lose in 4 or 5 to a clearly superior west team I will have a breakdown and start a campaign to have the cavs banned from the finals.

score was 76-73...KG gets bumped out of bounds by Varejo on his jumper---NO Call....Lebron comes down and hits that 3.....score would have been 76-75 (if KG hits free throws)..but nope--it's now 79-73 and the Cavs run away with it.

I thought the same, but shouldn't KG be taking the ball to the hole and putting his nuts in his mouth instead?

Everyone's calling out KG and his lack of aggressiveness. I'm calling out Pierce. At least KG and Ray scored more than he did. Man up Paul! You're the friggin' team captain! You're supposed to be the best offensive player on the team! WTF are you doing averaging close to 12.5 pts a game this series?!?

I believe the celtics are the better team on paper. The problem is the celtics are letting players like Wally, Smith and West kill them. On the other habd the celtics look 100% lost on offense.

Right now I have to go with the Cavs on Wednesday. On Friday we have to watch the Celtics fight for their lives.

Paul is a moron too and always settles for terrible shots. I'm just calling out KG because he wants to beat on his chest and act like an animal. Beast on them if you think you are a beast, otherwise you'll be taking Bill up on his offer and sharing one of his rings with him.

That's because KG is so in love with taking those freaking fade-away jumpers! He should dive his nose into the basket NOT fade away. I hate to say this but our jumper-happy teams starts with KG. I wanted to question that for a long time during the season why KG takes so many fade-aways but since we've been winning I know I would get hammered if I questioned it.
