5/9: ECSF Game 2: Cavs@Celtics

[tims4wins]

You can quote me on this and it’s not just game thread. I have been 100% all in since preseason game 1. I am off the bandwagon after tonight.

 

[Auger34]

just cut and paste G2 Miami thread here

36pt Q3 for the CAVs

and Jaylen gets beat back door

I thought the same but on the replay that was just a great play call

 

[Nator]

I think they really needed to see a 3 go in right there. Let's hope that trend continues.

 

[Manzivino]

Everyone has acted as if winning this series is a foregone conclusion, easiest path to the finals in history and all that. Maybe the team feels the same, certainly don’t see much of a sense of urgency and a pretty lame crowd too

If they lose this series, they should make major personnel changes. They were -1200 favorites for a reason.

 

[Ale Xander]

Dude they’re banking in threes.

How many points have they banked in?

 

[Ale Xander]

Appeal appeal

 

[lars10]

Joe starting the fourth with Tillman and Pritchard tells me he is deeply unserious about this game.

Yeah.. because they haven't needed any help down low or any kind of change of pace.

Posterity

 

[ifmanis5]

I don't see a foul there.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Highly suspect call

 

[RSN Diaspora]

12 points aint shit. Go on a run. Makes some stops. Win.

It’d be a great time for a run. I’m torn between knowing this is entirely possible and the seemingly more attractive alternative of pessimistically screaming at the tv.

 

[OnWisc]

Even Mitchell thought it was on him.

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

Boooooo. On Horford?!

 

[Auger34]

Yeesh, that’s a bad call

 

[BigSoxFan]

Get White and Tatum in the fucking game.

 

[JCizzle]

Good thing Tillman is in there to do........?

 

[riboflav]

Joe playing their JV lineup in the playoffs

 

[8slim]

Ooooffahhhh.

 

[NWsoxophile]

Getting dominated

 

[Auger34]

If Tillman doesn’t want to shoot a fucking layup he can’t play.

 

[Ale Xander]

Rust belt is representing

 

[ifmanis5]

They just can't get traction.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Whistle going totally against you ain’t gonna help a comeback

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

An embattled Joe Mazzulla neglects to challenge the obviously blown call.

 

[Strike4]

Woof

Does that mean you'll stop posting?

Pritchard is fine. He’s the only one working his ass off out there.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

We had a discussion about defensive rebounding proper to playoffs—-this is why

 

[CreedBratton]

They just refuse to sweep anybody huh. Why get extra rest, what fun would that be

 

[Manzivino]

30 points in the last 19 minutes.

 

[Ale Xander]

Get White and Tatum in the fucking game.

Wait, this game counts?

 

[LesterFan]

Over

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

We're going to get buried with this lineup in the game, while Mitchell eats. Fantastic

 

[twibnotes]

That was some garbage d by brown

 

[lars10]

If they lose this series, they should make major personnel changes. They were -1200 favorites for a reason.

Giving up in the second game?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

An embattled Joe Mazzulla neglects to challenge the obviously blown call.

That’s not getting overturned under their standard of review

 

[Auger34]

I fundamentally do not understand the Tillman and Al minutes, and our inability to set anything up for Hauser in the postseason.

I really fucking hate the double big lineups. I can somewhat tolerate it when it’s KP and Horford. Horford and Tillman together is really goddamn stupid

 

[Helmet Head]

This line up needs to not happen at this point in this game. It’s playoff game within reach. Treating it like a regular season game. Wake the fuck up Joe

 

[bosockboy]

13-13 at home the last 3 postseasons.

As a 1 or 2 seed. Incomprehensible.

 

[JCizzle]

Tatum and CJM are getting fucking worked by their peers in this one. Jeesh.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

If they lose this series, they should make major personnel changes. They were -1200 favorites for a reason.

Thanks for watching dude, love having you

 

[RSN Diaspora]

Get White and Tatum in the fucking game.

I think this is the right call, but as much as I have blind love for the man, DWhite has been boiled ass tonight.

 

[slamminsammya]

coach joe should tell them to make cleveland not make ridiculous 3s and to make our 3s

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Yeah.. because they haven't needed any help down low or any kind of change of pace.

Double big with Al and Tillman isn’t it. It didn’t work well in the regular season in limited minutes why would it work now? I just find it really weird.

 

[dhellers]

I wanted Cleve instead of Orlando in order to avoid getting worn out by Orlando's physical play. The risk being that Cleve's high end was higher.
Fjgured so long as celts played well and hard, it didn't matter. And if the did not, it also did not matter.

 

[Ale Xander]

Get KP some horse meds

 

[HomeRunBaker]

4Q of playoff game for home court, down 10, Tillman in and Tatum on the bench. It’s the freakin playoffs!!! What is going on here? Zero sense of urgency by Joe and nobody supports him more than me but this approach stinks and it sucks!

 

[patinorange]

13-13 at home the last 3 postseasons.

As a 1 or 2 seed. Incomprehensible.

Ya, that's not good.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

An embattled Joe Mazzulla neglects to challenge the obviously blown call.

I don't think that was going to get overturned. Never should have been called, but they would have upheld it.

 

[NavaHo]

Probably an overreaction but I’d empty the bench. This effort level won’t cut it, might as well send the starters a message.
