2024 NBA Playoffs: East Semifinals: #1 Boston Celtics vs #4 Cleveland Cavaliers (BOS WINS 4-1)

[Potential]

HOLY **** LOOK AT THE CAVS. CELTICS ARE REALLY GETTING DESTROYED BY A TEAM THAT'S 0 FOR **** 7 TRYING TO SCORE 100 IN A ROAD PLAYOFF GAME

[Chuck Everett]

Ok ok I'm watching now.

Levert has 16 points off the bench.

I dont think the cavs looks this good vs orlando all series... maybe the second half of game 7?? Boston better hope they can put some better basketball together in games 3 & 4 on the road.

Glad to see Miami Heat Strus is here

[SerialChiller]

Boston resorting to dirty plays to slow Mitchell now...

[Reeko]

White and Holiday gotta live up to their reputations as lockdown defenders, cuz these Cleveland guards are running roughshod over them.

[HoopsterJones]

Very quiet in the Garden tonight.

20 point lead in 4th! for Cavs! LMAO. Oh man these celtics. When are they gonna grow up?

[SOUL]

This would be JB Bickerstaff's first road playoff win

[KnicksGadfly]

Boston is playing some loose defense. They need to bring more intensity

Melo never had a competent gm who built a great supporting cast like this Celtics team around him in his prime

He had one in denver

This.

The Nuggets were very good.
The West was just too damn stacked back then as well.

He was still young. Start of his prime but I was moreso talking about his Knicks prime

I dont think Iverson was a good fit with him. They were on to something with Billups tho. Reaching wcf. So if he wouldveh stayed im sure dudes would have talk about him differently

[vulture]

I get that Mitchell has it going but why are the Celtics doubling him?
I’m surprised they don’t trust their guys to guard him.

Celtics haven't played tough defense since a certain coach left. Or got fired.

Nooooooooo.

I did like the play he drew up to start the 4th, i must admit.

Celtics have home court over any team East or West but it seems it's not much of an advantage for them. They're like 15-15 at home in the playoffs the last few years. They were 37-4 in the regular season at home.

[FarBeyondDriven]

Good for the Cavs. Everyone is making the right read and pass and guys are hitting shots. Since Brad Stevens rolled into town the Celtics have always seemed to lack the killer instinct and play with their food too much. This is par for the course for this team. No excuse for it. Happens no matter who the coach is. It's hard not to come to the conclusion that it's Tatum and Brown since they're the two constants besides Brad Stevens of course.

[HoopsterJones]

Levert cooked Tatum there

[Doranku]

Porzingis gives the Celtics the added dimension that makes them title favorites. Without him, they're still the same chucking team with horrific shot selection of years past.
