Playoff Thread: Round Two vs. Boston Celtics - Page 5

I like the player intros. I was humored by the background music of the Star Wars' Imperial March theme for the road team Celtics....

Horrific last possession by Boston, but ultimately the Cavs came away with the win. Game 7 will be huge....

Tracked the game on ESPN Game Cast. Looks like we mostly played well on D, and LeBron hit a couple of big shots. Tough game, closer than I thought when we went up 15 early in the 3rd, but hey: a win's a win, huh?

Now let's see what we can bring to the table for Game #7.

I like Boston's choice for Aeterna Lux as their theme for the Celtics intro. It's a good song.

On the other hand, they get negative points for using what appears to be an instrumental version of Ayo Technology for the lineup intro...

Edit: I take it back. I think it was an instrumental version of Usher's Love In The Club. Either way, it's a fail.

Well, we lost!

Nothing more I can say. We had chances, but the key shots just didn't fall. A couple of tries for 3s in the last 90 seconds or so puzzled me: we didn't need to push the panic button at that point, but after hitting two in a row, I can at least understand LeBron's 3rd straight try.

Very disappointed, especially as I know (contrary to that freaking idiot Jeff van Gundy) we could compete with and had a chance to beat the "sacred Celtics" THREE TIMES on their home floor.

Kudos to LeBron though. He "manned up" and did what he could to take us back to the Conference finals. Just wasn't meant to be.

Congrats to Celtics fans on their win. But if you play like that vs. Detroit, you will lose in 5 games.

Still not enough firepower for a championship caliber team... here's to 08-09.
