  Kyrie is the only reason this is a game /obvious.

  How many lucky rolls can Boston get? Horford's shot was below the rim the entire damn time it was in the air.
• like_that

  

  How many bullshit shots are the Celtics going to make? FUCK
• ironman02

  Jerebko bitches about Love "flopping" in the last game, but now he wants to bitch when he flops and doesn't get the call? Fuck off.

  That rebound in traffic by Love

  Apparently the league has a rule that unless LeBron dies when going to the rim, it's not a foul.

  You can count on that since I absolutely despise every single thing about them.

  I worry about you if Cavs up 15 and Draymond banks in 3's. I fear this would end it all.

  Kyrie!!
  
  I too believe that the earth is flat.

  This is fricken pathetic.
  
  Still have 3 quarters to turn it around at least.

  I think Boston is better without him, in this series. They were SO SMALL with him in there, and Cavs had no problem guarding those lineups...plus they were awful on defense with him. Their team is better matchup on both ends without Thomas.

  Uncle Drew being a grumpy old man. I swear, I saw him bleeding antifreeze tonight.
  
  Flashes of Kobe.

  I remember hearing Shaq talking about this a few years ago. There was a conversation about how many calls LeBron gets, and Shaq actually pointed out that his size and athleticism causes fouls against LeBron to go uncalled, not unlike he himself experienced when he was in the league.
  
  For as many people as will whine about when James gripes about not getting a call (and he does, just as all superstars do), he does tend to get fouled a lot when it goes uncalled.
  
  I have to confess something, too. When the Cavs traded Wiggins for Love, I was not a fan of the trade. Kyrie was not a good defender, and I didn't like the idea of two starters being such defensive liabilities.
  
  However, Love put on a defensive rebounding clinic tonight. Combine that with his going Gary Payton on Curry in the closing minutes of last year's Finals Game 7 and putting on the size this last offseason, I am officially glad that we made the trade.
  
  One thing nobody is talking about regarding these last two games has been the lack of production from the bench. Late in this game, I looked it up, and the bench had given the Cavs a total of 16 points over the two games combined, and 11 of them were from Shump. Essentially, six players have gotten all but five of the points. Doesn't it seem like that could certainly have played a role in the struggles? That the last two games have shown the Cavs getting almost no help from the bench, sans Shump's 6 and 5 points, respectively?

  Wow... Korver needs more touches in the finals, then

  Nice to see them come back and pull this out. Biggest bright spot was Kyrie stepping up as a leader. This team better tighten up their defense quickly if they even have a shot in the Finals. Golden State will hit those open 3's that Boston is clanging.
