Why isn't LeBron padding his points? If the Celtics can't win I want a show dammit.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Classy showing by the fans here, chanting let's go Celtics anyway for game 7.

[Divinity]

I would've been willing to bet a hefty amount of funds that my prediction was right.

Blowhards trying to measure their dicks when the series isn't even over. Lawl.

Ohhh bold prediction! Two teams that are filled with superstars making it to the finals. Two teams that almost matched up last year in the finals. By the way' date=' it looks like your prediction will most likely be wrong...[/quote']

 

I don't want to say series over' date=' but holy s*** it looks like we have no chance now.[/quote']

 

Haha, what a change of opinion.

 

I don't know if you know this, but the Celtics are my team. But from a pure basketball standpoint, OKC/MIA is a much more appealing Finals series on paper. I would love for the C's to pull through in Miami, but I wouldn't stop watching the playoffs if they lose. It'll still be great basketball, especially if LeBron puts up numbers like he did last night.

Your point? The heat were supposed to " steamroll" the celtics? The fact that it's going to gm 7 has already exceeded my expectations ( even though I want them to win, and thought we would ) but how could I be upset ( if we lose ) by taking the best team in The NBA to 7 gms?

 

And even though the celtics lost by 19, they played horrible? Even with lebron on fire they still held the heat under 100.... If we were hitting shots and still lost by 19 I'd be worried, but fact is we played like s*** and lebron had an amazing gm..

 

Keep lebron in check and we win gm 7...

And the fact that this guy was no where to be seen when the heat lost 3 straight<_>

Good luck with that.

By " in check " I mean 28 +/- 4......

I never thought the Heat were going to "steamroll" the Celtic's, especially with Bosh sitting on the bench with an injury for almost the entire series. If Bosh started every game then yes I think this series would already be over.

 

If the Celtic's were missing one of the big 3 like the Heat were they very well may have lost to the Sixers in the semi-finals.

the celtics are missing a very improtant starter in bradley? say all you want about " he's not the player bosh is " and your right, but the fact is the celtics were 15-17 before bradley became a starter, and after had one of the best records in the nba and paired with rondo it gave the celtics arguably the best defensive backcourt in the league

by the way, was your computer in for repairs when the heat lost 3 straight? lost internet for a week? busy with work/school/etc? did you happen to forget your password and couldnt log on?

 

or, are you just a fair-weather bandwagon heat fan that jumps on after they win by 19????:dunno::dunno:

I have been pretty busy with work the last two weeks as a matter of fact, before the other day my last post was on May 26th before the series even started, you really going to hold it against me for not being able to post everyday?

 

Secondly I'm not even a Heat fan, I root for my home team the Knicks, so trying to make my opinion look biased is completely off.

Game 7..... Bottom line, pierce has to step up

[Jasonbay44]

Damn for being labeled "not clutch" and a "choker" Lebron is sure having a hell of a 4th quarter.

[yeszir]

Celtics just completely fell apart. Completely.

Lol the man is a beast.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Thanks again Danny Ainge, for not getting any f***ing rebounders. For the 3rd straight season.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Absolutely pathetic.

[Jasonbay44]

Lol the man is a beast.

 

Hell of a game by Bosh too, the Heat getting him back made such a huge difference. He came up absolutely huge on both ends of the floor.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Bosh came up big last year vs Chicago too. He comes through when they need him.

Which team you rooting for in the finals?

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Not sure if it was a joke because I look like Durant lol but i don't care who wins.

 

All my co workers say I look like Durant though haha.

[redsoxrules]

This should be an entertaining finals . If LB continues to play like he has in these playoffs he might just finally get his ring

San Antonio had won 20 straight until OKC got their heads out of their asses and now they've been resting just about the right amount of time ( enough for nagging little injuries and what-not to heal, but not long enough to be "stale" )

Idk... Personally I'd like to see a 7 gm series and have it come down to a gm winning shot, whoever wins-wins..
