I think the home crowd will give GSW an edge and let them win. By a lot. Like, a blowout after halftime (but still somewhat competitive to start. Like within 12 points.)

Van Gundy is just an awful commentator. Not sure he’s Joe Buck bad, but I can’t stand listening to him.
Glad Cleveland had a strong game, but I don’t see them shooting 55% from 3 and holding Boston to ~35% from the floor again this series. Cleveland will be lucky to take this to 6. Honestly, as long as Golden State doesn’t win I’d be happy with any other champ.
Just from this first quarter, Rockets are good, but even with Steph sucking these GSW are the better team. I just don't see that changing in the other 3 quarters. If anything I see the GSW put their foot down at some point and go on a serious 10 point+ run. Rockets seem to be back to doing too much ISO ball and too little moving the ball around finding openings. That will in the end not work against the GSW I think.
GSW up 54-43 at half. I think it's gonna be a blowout.
Can't believe how Boston are making it out. Without Irving and Hayward they are beating Cavs at final.
Celtics-Cavs about to start. Hopefully a better game than Saturday.

Welp, so much for the Celtics having a good game again. They're doing the exact same thing as Saturday, they are playing to their man instead of playing their own game.

If this keeps up for a few more minutes I'm just going to turn the game off. I was reading a book and that interests me more than seeing the Celtics play like shit again.
When Jaylen Brown gets out played by Kyle Korver then it's time to go do better things.

I've watched pretty much every Celtics game this season, and even when they play like crap I typically just sit it out. I;ve only threatened to stop watching twice cause they were gawdawful and both times they turned it around and seemed to suddenly find focus. I promise I won't abuse this power in the future (mostly cause I just prefer to watch the games).

Aaaaaaaaaaand, the play turns to shit again. They had it down to 10 and now back to 15 through careless play and rookie moments.

Celtics missed 13 shots IN THE PAINT, Cavs missed 15 shots total. Brutal numbers. Just the 3 missed dunks would have made this game only a 9 point difference. >.<

HOW the fuck is that a foul?!
Morris got walked into and it's a foul on HIM?!
Fffffffffffffffffffffff

Fuckingh hell, that would have been the 4th on Love and now it;s the 4th on Morris. That's a MAJOR officiating fuck up

These officials man... Rozier not touched gets a 3 point foul on JR. Calling bad both ways.

Here we go again. They play well for a while, and then get drawn into frustration plays again by the veteran and more savvy Cavs. They HAVE to keep their head during these stretches and keep playing. They can't let the Cavs go on a run again just by losing focus.

Lebron will come back in, so now is the time the Celtics need to keep a cool head and push through and not let the Cavs go on a run again. Going to be tough, but they have to if they want to win. Now or never in this game.

If the Celtics hadn't fallen behind by 15+ in the 1st quarter they would have had a slim lead right now. Celtics scored more in every quarter except the first. Very frustrating to watch. I'm sure the Celtics can win in Cleveland now, but they had lapses that put them in unwinnable situations instead.
This will be 2-2, but I think the Celtics feel they are the moral winners, despite losing this game.
I think Cleveland is confident enough to take one win in boston and finish it at home, still having them in 6

I think that Boston ups their level at home and wins game 5. I'm sure xskarma would love to remind us that Boston is undefeated at home in the playoffs.
Guess Cleveland has to change that then.

They'll have to, cause Boston has home court advantage. It's either beat Boston in Boston or go home. Not exactly a stretch to say so.
Standing by my Celtics in 7 though. They just need to come out at the start with the kind of intensity they have down the stretch and they are good to go.
God Lebron set the record for most Field Goals made in the playoffs (passing Kareem). http://stats.nba.com/alltime-leaders...atCategory=FGM
HOU @ GSW (1-2) tonight. 9 PM. TNT.
I don't think it'll be a 41 point blowout again, but I can't imagine Golden State losing...
Let's pray Houston can get that W tonight. Otherwise GSW are just taking it in 5... ResidentSleeper
Rookie All NBA teams announced.
Not really any surprises among them.
You'd be putting Kyrie right back with Lebron, which is where he forced himself away from. To do it, you'd have to trade Kyrie and keep Hayward most likely.
???????? Since when has Houston had a black uniform? Oh wait it's GSW in black. ?????? I thought..
Oh speaking of Kyrie btw, I saw Deadpool at the movie theater today, and in the previews there was a trailer for the Uncle Drew movie. It looks like it has a good budget and is meant to be a generic black comedy, not just...a basketball spoof.
Listen, I loved those Pepsi commercials, but this went too far.

Forreal Pendulous, 5 minutes into the game and GSW are up 12-0 lol.
