Still, a remarkable performance by the Celtics so far. It looked like it was going to be LeBron's night tonight and the Celtics turned the tables on him. This is an amazing first two games considering what Boston is missing.
This is all to reasonable for how this tread has been going. Pretty impressive team play and intensity from Boston. [Reply]

I would as well. But I don't think you're getting full value for Kyrie right now with the knee issues. [Reply]
There's enough talent they should win when they play with the best player in the NBA. The problem is LeBron's hand-picked coach not putting them in a position to succeed because he's incompetent, and that the team lacks any type of chemistry. It's LeBron and the Cavs. The other players are just his lackeys. Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]

Like if he's still taking those shots with Stevens as his coach (who has no doubt told him to limit that shit), it's likely just who he is. Still probably adds more than he takes away, though. [Reply]

Yep..same old Iso ball. No team play or ball movement at all. [Reply]

If Kyrie was healthy, we'd be looking at a sweep. Let's not act like he doesn't average 25-5 in the playoffs and like he didn't hit the game winning shot in 2015. Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]

2016. He was also injured in 2015 too.
Good scorer when he's on, but the guy is massively injury prone these days and plays no defense. [Reply]

He's been good enough on defense that when Blatt was coaching, the Cavs had a top 5 defense and he was a good not great defensive player on a top defensive Celtics team. He's not a problem on defense.
His knees are a concern but I'd still rather have him than not. There aren't a lot of players that can score at will like he can. Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]
