No official word but guessing Love is done for this series.Too bad, but I think we can overcome it.
Didn't like the Rozier dive into Lebrons Legs at halfcourt at the end of the 1st half no call either ...looked a little gimpy walking off.
why is it that the Celtics get away with the same things that we'de get called for every time in this series?
I know it's playoff basketball, but man this is the type of shite that makes me think the fix is in.
Luckily we got solid minutes out of Clarkson and Green and Nance because Hill and Smith are still garbage
tonight so far.
Osman really must be in Lues doghouse and we already know Hood is. :nonono:

I expect another monster game from LeBron in Game 7 and expect Cavs to finally come through in Boston. Cleveland will have to make some changes in the off season, however, to keep him. If it were not for that man, the series would end in four or five games. Truly is the second best player of all time. Much respect to him and his heart and love for this game.

Good win at home, now can we continue it in Boston? Not supremely confident , but can't complain given the roller coaster this roster has been props to Green and Nance playing effective minutes in Loves absence and better defense.

Man, downtown was hopping! Lots of people walking around, always great to see fellow Clevelanders out and about and supporting local businesses and our teams.

Why in God's name would they want the Celtics to advance? So less people watch the Finals?

Not how it would work without fan drop off Imo.
Usually any pressure from outside influence is enormous with the amount of revenue generated from just 1 playoff game so the home team gets a little cooking usually to extend a series against a better team. But in Boston its magnified with the players being flop Kings they have Isaiah to thank for that yet the fanbase thinks if you grab and pull and poke in a crowd or away from the ball you are not fouling...but when an individual opponent defender does the same on an island the ref blows the whistle every time even off ball.
Those are the easiest favors refs get away with.
Usually game 7 all bets are off and the officiating is better. But if the fix is in it won't be.
FYI Boston and GSW were probably on the docket
From the moves last summer ,so despite the injuries nothing would surprise me.
