Cleveland putting a hurting on the Celtics in the first half.

We could see the East and West champs both sweep their conferences... I bet that has never happened before.

Is that what Adam Silver wants?
 
This will be a tough series for Cleveland, regardless of this game 1.

Celtics have a roster full of athletic wings and 2 guards that can get physical and play defense.
 
Love is playing out of his mind right now
 
This league is just boring now. The only competitive thing we will be getting out of the playoffs is the finals when Golden state plays the warriors. You know, the only two super teams around who just so happen to steam roll their conferences and playoff matchups. League needs to do something about this. So boring.

Nah, the Celtics (like all non-Cleveland Eastern teams) have been total crap on the road. If they can't hang at home, it'll take a miracle for them to even push it to 5. Specifically, a miracle in game 2. If they lose game 2, it'll be an easy sweep.
 
That's what I thought, just wondering if Brad is getting thrown under the bus yet.

Boston did go 3-0 on the road in the playoffs against Chicago.
 
This game just goes to show you how much of a joke the NBA is
 
The East outside the Cavaliers is probably the worst a conference has ever been. But the Cavs have also flipped the proverbial switch. Should be an interesting Finals.
 
Irving showing his Aussie roots, he passed the ball to the ref with an Aussie Rules handball.

You can't guard James with Horford or Olynyk. When the Cavs play James at the 4, you have to play small ball. I don't know why the Celtics are doing this.

2001-02 and 2002-03 was really really weak for East. Nets had no competition.
