I'm full of glee seeing the Celtics get destroyed.

A disgraceful team full of dirty players and a fraud in IT.

The Bulls with Rondo would have given Cleveland hell. I know it.

Im trying think...if this were a high school football game, they would call the game.
If this were the NFL, they would run the ball for the rest of the game.

There really isnt a mercy rule for the NBA.

The mercy rule would be if Lue sits all the starters for the whole second half.

I actually liked them during the season. But then IT starts chest pumping and all this other crap and now karma is catching up with him badly. He lead his team to a NBA record of being down 41 in the 1st half of the playoffs.

There is one it's called fans leaving. :lol:

Honestly I'm waiting to see how long these fans are going to watch this before they just empty out of the building.

Good lord, Boston's down at halftime by 10 more points then they scored in the 1st half.

Boston would have a better chance in the second half if 2017 Chuck, Shaq, and Kenny decide to suit up, with Erneh coaching.

I saw fans leave in the last game at halftime. I am willing to a good chunk probably walked out. Its Friday night might as well get the party started early.

Wonder if getting pissy drunk would make this game more interesting to watch.

I am glad I haven't watched a game since the Celtics/Wizards series.

Holy crap, I thought the score was a typo.

Well when your team is down like that, mind as well start the night of heavy driving ASAP. :lol:

You know it's bad when Marv Albert of all people has never seen a blowout this bad. :lol:

Post #1895 » by **DASMACKDOWN** » Sat May 20, 2017 1:59 am

I think Lebron just trying to get 30 then he will sit the rest of the game

Mech Engineer · Post #1896 » by **Mech Engineer** » Sat May 20, 2017 2:00 am

How bad were the Bulls to get blown out by this miserable team called the Celtics. And, the Wizards with supposedly 2 great modern day players couldn't win their series either. The Cavs are great but it shouldn't be so one-sided especially as LeBron gets older.

BigUps · Post #1897 » by **BigUps** » Sat May 20, 2017 2:01 am

The NBA has a competitive issue. Its way too top heavy.

Post #1898 » by **DASMACKDOWN** » Sat May 20, 2017 2:04 am

Boston might as well just keep both Nets picks. There really isnt anything they can do to really matchup against the Cavs.

Heck we are closer to matching up against the Cavs then they are.

If they could haul Paul George and Hayward, then it would make it more interesting but I still dont think it would be enough

Yup I think the bulls are the only team in the east that would of challenged them a bit. Maybe not beat them in series but definitely put up better games than this.

MJ stats before ECF in 1990:
40.2 ppg, 7.2 rbs, 7.2 apg, 3.3 stls, 1.1 blks, 54.4%FG and 34.5% 3pt.

His 89 stats before the Pistons in ECF:
37.1 ppg, 8.1 rbs, 7.9 apg, 2.5 stls, 0.8 blks, 51.5% and 33.3% 3pt.

Pretty outrageous.

He was fairly good.

Not to ruin anyone's night, but the Lebron can guard any position has been trumped. Per Coach Lue, one Tristan can guard any position. Echoed it several times. Someone make it stop!
