20+ deficit is tough, but the Cavs can come back from that, in the 2nd Half.

2 home wins in the OKC/Denver series and 1 in Minny/GS.
Cavs getting blasted to smithereens back to Cleveland.

If Boston signed Rick Carlisle. When he was available, we may be on a three peat..
Instead we hired to brand new unproven and clearly limited coaches. Just thinking about that makes me sick.
Celtics better be ready tomorrow. Knicks know this is it.

I am just shocked at how flat the cavs have been. I really thought they would play well.

Carlisle (a Bird era Celtic for awhile) would have been awesome choice.

Wow. This is looking bad, for the Cavs.
I'm kinda surprised.

My god this is an awful game. Again celtics better be aware. The garden is gonna be pumping and the Knicks will be desperate.

Pacers are annihilating the Cavs. It’s kind of scary tbh. We will have a hard time beating them, if we can get to the ECF.

Re: NBA Playoff Games 2025, Non-Celtics
Cleveland has 60 points already with over 4 minutes to go before half. And only one player is in double digits..
If that is not a sign of real coaching, then I don't know what is f****** Joe can never ever do that.

Oh plz. Cavs have looked atrocious. Celtics first need to beat the knicks. They better be careful tomorrow with a crappy start.

I don't see that. The Cavs are normally the better Team. But, they're fumbling it, now.

This is shocking to be honest. Cavs have literally laid an egg.

If we make it to the next round, can we handle the Pacers physicality? Don’t count on Tatum for this series for sure since he always disappears when it gets physical.

Pacers ball movement is fabulous.
40 point devastation in first half.

We are all forgetting how otherworldly JT can be when he is balling.
He has had innumerable incredible games.
