are the raptors that bad or were the pacers that good in round 1? cavs suddenly look like they are able to defend, even love looks decent at that end

Absolutely true, Kevin Love wouldn’t have been able to get down with Embiid. The Celtics will be a curious matchup though, they aren’t as rough as the Pacers were but they are still tough.

Cavs fans should send flowers to Indy

It's a combination of Raptors being overrated/overachieving in the season, plus Cleveland finally starting to gel and play good basketball.

Also Kevin Love when playing well and when stinking it up is a HUGE difference.

And TT owns Al Horford's soul. That has always been BOS' weakness since Brad Stevens took over is their frontcourt play just doesn't have the beef on top of the fact, they have no one to throw on LBJ once he goes in the post.

Now, "if" BOS had a healthy Hayward/Kyrie, we're having a totally different discussion but do Tatum/Brown/Rozier make the jumps they have thus far? As unfortunate, the injuries have given those guys invaluable time/experience that might just make BOS insane going further...Rozier, man, I really wish he would've been thrown in instead of Zizic...a damn shame...

It’s like the raps are trying to top the previous game for most embarrassing game. Sad that we have to cheer for this garbage.

What can Brad Stevens do with a roster that's shook at the presence of Lebron?

No pitching coach or manager was able to help David Price overcome his playoff jitters.

Boston will play CLE tougher because their team isn't SCARED of LeBron like Lowry & DeRozan are and in fact will probably play tougher than they already have for Kyrie and because so many are counting them out.

Also discount the fact Stevens will actually have a reasonable game plan for LeBron that doesn't involve putting in 5'10 FVV into the starting line up to somehow help manage that.

Nobody has an answer for LeBron

GS does. It's called Curry, Durant, Thompson, Green and Iggy.

None of those guys can guard him either. Don’t make a matchup post then try to use a team argument to back it up.

this year's pacers must be considered as one of the greatest teams of all time along with the 95-96 bulls
