Last game had one great positive. Ray seems to be finding his streak. This whole series has basically been just KG producing. If Ray gets it going we can easily win these next 2 games. Cavs aren't a **** team. They were in the finals last year, they're more experienced as a team. It's not a huge surprise they won 2. Doc needs to stop with his (Please Use More Appropriate Word) second unit lineups to start the 4th. They've taken us out of the game almost every single time.
My Starting 5:

PG: Allen Iverson
SG: Paul Pierce
SF: Kevin Durant
PF: Kevin Garnett
C: Patrick Ewing

We will win at home. Despite what the fraud fans are saying, we are closer to winning a road game than losing a home game. So far we've had one close game at home and one road game where we were blown out. We just need to execute down the stretch on the road.

We're closer to winning on the road then losing at home.

Cheer up. Courtesy of an ESPN poll: 49 of 50 states think the Celts will advance. 65% of the nation thinks the Celts will advance. Course there is no indication that any of these pollsters have actually been watching the gmams.

I still consider myself a positive fan, but these wacky rotations with Powe getting 6 minutes are killing me.

On paper, we should be killing the Cavs. Problem is, that should have been the case with the Hawks.

I'm no psychologist, but I have a hypothesis about an overlooked reason for why this board has been so down lately: the media coverage has been brutal. As Celtic fans, we already know about the weaknesses this team has and the struggles they've had in the postseason. Mike and Tommy are revered here because they don't feel the need to remind us of those every 20 seconds.

With these games being broadcast on TNT and ESPN, not only do you get the non-stop LeBron butt-kissing but redundant (and embarrassingly belated) criticisms of Rajon Rondo, who realistically replaced Ray a long time ago as one of the "Big 3". But Pavlov's dogs only want to talk about the "Big 3" and LeBron, how much we suck on the road, and the stupid Hawks series EVERY. SINGLE. MINUTE.

I tried muting the television to listen to Grande and Max, but the time delay really threw me off. Thank you Ms. Janet Jackson!

Thank you for articulating what I've thought for days now. I love how when we make a great play, the announcers say in a relatively flat voice "nice play by the Celtics", but Mike Breen just about came in his pants on LeBron's dunk in game 4, "NO REGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE" and then gave LBJ a verbal BJ the rest of the telecast. OK, we get it, you all want to have LeBron's baby...SHUT UP!
It's still 17 to 11!!!!
