ECF: P2 | (2) Boston Celtics vs (4) Cleveland Cavaliers | Tied 2-2

Cavs need someone other than Lebron or Love to have a big shooting night in Boston in order to win. If it's going to be anyone, my money is on Korver.

I don’t think so . Cs cant shoot right now . Tatum was ghost in the 4th

I mean yeah, but then they will shoot lights out at home.

We will see . They should shoot better

Cavs are playing great D no reason that stops

Different Cavs team right now defensively . TT showing up big time

[CelticSooner]

C’s are in trouble no doubt about it. Back to the underdogs they’ve always been. This is going 7 at best for them at this point.

[Ballerhogger]

Again Boston had rozier on Lebron CAN NOT happen .. seriously

[G R E Y]

So you must feel this is an offensive foul:

https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/8dafm4/ridiculous_foul_call_on_victor_oladipo_on_kevin/

Do you honestly not see the difference between Dipo flying so close into Love's body - so even if yes Love leaned in, but he was able to get that call because of Dipo's proximity to him - and Love literally flying by Morris? If we're going to compare calls, we have to compare same instances (O player kicking out motion, like OP mentioned with Curry); these are not the same plays.

Agree. it was not a blatant kick and should have been a no call. I did nothing to change the shot and did not bait a defending player to give up a foul. Love was in the air before Morris had the time to react to stick a leg out

It's not about intent to kick out, though. Even if it's a natural shooting momentum, because it impeded Love's landing, it got called. Likely would have been a no call had Love just fallen without getting caught up in Morris's foot. The consequence affected the call, which is its own issue.

[Entengtot]

We were atrocious in the second half. Love missed countless bunnies and LeBron turned it over virtually every pass he made.

Yeah. if not for the timely offensive rebounds (Nance, TT, Love), this game should have been closer. Pathetic refereeing on both sides for this game still, the Cavs are better when Bron doesnt go god-mode. He had a quiet 42. Love was terrible this game , hope he steps up in G5 and Hill carries the momentum to the next one. Still seeing Cavs in 6

Yeah that had to have been the quietest 40 point game I've seen in a while. I don't feel like he was particularly good tonight to be honest.

i have ust been lurking around and know you are pissed with Lou rotations but he is getting better right, TT and Nance getting more time. Cedi is a pipedream over Green but at this point I would rather have Calderon/Hood/Clarkson take Green's minutes.The five-out line-up is not needed this series, they need either Love,Nance-TT there at all times. Rebounding is Boston's achilles heel.

We will have to see on that too. Boston has been a different team at home. Frankly I don’t get how home court matters as much as it does.

Yeah it's still not good but it's been better. It's be nice to see Cedi getting minutes over Green and Calderon playing over Clarkson, but it's obvious those two things aren't going to happen.

I don’t get it either. Feels like a crutch for a young team to lean on. You think LeBron is afraid of any road environment though? lol he’s coming for the throat on Wednesday.

I imagine they will. Not going to be easy for the Cavs, that's for sure

you're right but Cleveland didn't play defense in their first two games. Boston always does poorly offensively when they run into good defense - just because of the personnel they have. Its hard to play good defense by any team. If Cleveland plays with the same tenacity on defense in Boston, it will be a close game.

I wish Korver was 10 years younger so we could keep him for longer. He's such a great addition to any team, on and off the court.

No, if I’m betting on someone, I’m betting on Lebron to steal a road game. This Boston team is young and can’t keep digging themselves a hole early in games.

He has another good 2 years in him I think.

Boston wishes Ray Allen was 10 yrs younger

I'd trust the Cavaliers to win a road game in this series more than the Celtics any day of the week.

This is exactly why I think the Cavs will win besides the absurd amount of calls they get in favor of them at home.

Well the celtics don't have to win a road game, do you trust the cavs to win a road game more than you trust the celtic to win 2 home games?

[Ballerhogger]

Game 5 will be biggest game of the series

Good question. I think that the series probably goes to 7, so we will probably find out.
