5/15 - G5 vs. CLE - Gentleman's Sweep

[bankshot1]

The Celts have the attention span of a kitten playing with a ball of string

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Ok we can get Horford back in anytime now.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

i love the guy but this is a real bad kornet stretch

Joe is living with Mobley getting his two and the Cs getting that much plus I guess

 

[OnTheBlack]

Tatum at the 5 and we would destroy these guys

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Sorry Al, we need ya tonight

 

[djbayko]

I’ve heard the phrase “find the laces” more times this series tonight than the rest of the season combined my life

fixed

 

[Manzivino]

I mean it’s pretty obvious they don’t trust Tillman, I don’t know if he’s knee’s still bothering him but he hasn’t lived up to his defensive rep when he’s gotten minutes and he drags down the offense.

 

[Cellar-Door]

It’s amazing that with the money WBD and Disney spend on the NBA they employ so many garbage announcers.

The NFL wouldn’t stand for crews like this.

Anthony is pretty good, Dedes is terrible. Probably just a question of..... how many PBP guys do you need when most of the year you only need 1

 

[slamminsammya]

uh oh. tatum hit a midrange

 

[Imbricus]

Mobley is eating Kornet alive.

 

[SteveF]

Probably need to start thinking about someone other than Kornet, but Tillman hasn't played in forever.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Can Mitchell sit the fuck down

 

[chilidawg]

Mobley is owning him tho so Al needs to get back in soon

Yup. Al back, time for a run.

 

[Marbleheader]

Fuck off Morris

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Cleveland ought to b eburied but they're making tough 3s since the last timeout, sadly

 

[slamminsammya]

morris ridiculous

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Tatum. LFG

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Morris literally with a 200th percentile performance

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

That’s some slick stuff from Tatum in the paint

 

[Cellar-Door]

Kornet has struggled, but I'm not going to knock Joe for not wanting to go to his 4th string C, he can live with it until Al can come back in.

 

[Devizier]

Marcus Morris making shots he couldn’t make for us years ago

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Anthony is pretty good, Dedes is terrible. Probably just a question of..... how many PBP guys do you need when most of the year you only need 1

Sure, but there are like 20-something NBA teams that aren’t using their lead TV and radio PBP guys now.

(as noted above, I think Anthony is perfectly cromulent)

 

[Marbleheader]

Tatum going into ISO mode

 

[ObstructedView]

I mean

 

[MJM2344]

Marcus Morris shooting 8/10 is disgusting.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Morris...you gotta be kidding me

 

[Auger34]

Jesus Christ. Marcus Morris “quality play off wing” now has his season high

 

[Deathofthebambino]

When they get out and push Cleveland can't keep up. When they slow it down, it just allows them to settle in and they compete. Just push it.

This, all of this

 

[slamminsammya]

the one time you really want tatum to just shoot

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Al just indicated he knew he should have taken that shot

 

[kfoss99]

Up six against a team giving it their all. Play smart and give it your all on D and end the series.

 

[Cellar-Door]

PP struggling with PnR defense

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

You, uhhh... might want to shoot the rock there, fellas.

 

[Obscure Name]

Dumb.

 

[Auger34]

Russillo sighting

 

[FelixMantilla]

Disgusting end of quarter possession.

 

[RSN Diaspora]

Lackluster finish to that quarter. It felt like we were just waiting for Cleveland to fade.

 

[chilidawg]

Terrible execution from Tatum on the end of the quarter shot.

 

[8slim]

Hopefully 6 becomes 12 soon and then we can grind to a dub.

 

[Auger34]

I know the Cavalier players can dribble a basketball so we shouldn’t expect a huge win but this is disappointing

 

[PedroKsBambino]

I said this many regular season games, and it's true in this one: we need about 4 really good focused minutes at both ends to salt this away.

Let's do it, guys. Execute and move on.

No mroe fucking around

 

[Manzivino]

Cleveland scored on 8 of their 10 possessions the second half of the third quarter, one of the empty possessions Mobley missed two FTs. Not great!

 

[bosockboy]

That they can’t separate from them in a close out game at home is staggering.

 

[MannyRam]

Jrue has to give you more than this

 

[TripleOT]

27-27 third quarter. Morris is keeping the Cavs in the game. I really hope that Tatum doesn’t try to control every single possession in this fourth quarter. They really need to play aggressive offense, moving the ball.

 

[OnWisc]

How do you not leave yourselves enough time to find the fucking laces?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Lackluster finish to that quarter. It felt like we were just waiting for Cleveland to fade.

In fairness they made like three contested threes that you just shrug at

 

[DeadlySplitter]

That they can’t separate from them in a close out game at home is staggering.

It'd be over if Morris wasn't on fire.

[JCizzle]

Russillo sighting

Haha. I feel about the same as he looks watching this shit show.

 

[benhogan]

All the MaMo slander around here is catching up with us

 

[Philip Jeff Frye]

Seems like they just think this is their game and they can just dick around because they are the Mighty Celtics. And they will probably get away with it.

I just hope they don't take the same attitude after looking at the banged up Knicks and thinking, "yeah, we've got this, they can't beat us."
