You aware that we gave as many gifts to Bulls as the refs gave to us. Rondo taking multiple bad gambles, and the team opting for Ray Allen and Glen Davis over Pierce on two occasions.

Well there ya go. Hopefully (for your sake at least) they get those corrected. IDK why Pierce didn't get that last shot but I suppose they thought Allen was more open/had the better shot? Either way, I was stunned with both team's shot selection (at least players who were taking the shots).

Anyway, go CLEVELAND!

I am aware that Boston really only had one superstar and without him are an afterthought in the playoffs. LOL.
 
Did Van Gundy just compare Phil Collins to David fucking Hasselhoff?
 
Surprising since aren't Browns fans crazy? And Indians fans when they were good, they were pretty loud I thought?
 
Bulls/Celtics was awesome, and Rose and Rondo were incredible, but what the hell was Bennett Salvatore thinking on about six calls that were outright blown?

I can't imagine a referee having a worse game, but he did manage to impact both teams with his ineptitude, so he was basically a wash in terms of his effect on the game.
 
Looks like the only way to get Cavs fans riled up are chalupas.

Before Wednesday’s regular-season finale against the Philadelphia 76ers, James took the microphone to thank the fans for their support this season. It was quite a season indeed as the Cavs set franchise records by selling out 38 of 41 games and averaging 20,512, just a few dozen below capacity.

James told the crowd that it was a season of “wins and smiles.” But with his teammates around him, he had one request.

“We’re all a family and sometimes families have disagreements,” James said. “If we win, 99-20, don’t boo us because you don’t get a free chalupa.”

James was referring to the occasions this season when the fans got on the Cavs in blowouts when they came up just short of the requisite 100 points to trigger the prize. The Cavs have dribbled out their final possession with the century mark in reach 10 times at home this season.

One particular game in November against Milwaukee, the booing got under James’ skin when fans let him know they weren’t happy he was holding the ball as time expired. Unable to get it off his mind, he expressed some disappointment with fans a few days later.

“We want to bring you all a championship,” James said Wednesday. “Not tacos.”

Holy fuck that's embarrassing fan behavior.

This is just sad. I would be ashamed to be a Cavs fan right now. Is it because they think this should be an easy series?

I have no idea, but it sure makes for 'flat' watching experience. I fully expect the Cavs to steamroll Detroit, but it's hardly watchable because there's no sense of 'This is fun!' in this game at all.

Yeah, I think it's a "Call us when you're in the Finals" type of thing. Silly.

I've no idea, but even then you gotta start getting into playoff form as a crowd even if the series isn't all that exciting.

If the Rose Garden crowd ever gets like this someone needs to throw water on all of them or something.
 
It's a shame Detroit has no fight and is just a shell of its former self. Stuckey is not starting PG material.
 
GO CHICAGO!

I hope KG watches his team get eliminated in the first round.

Bark at that!
 
Jeff Van Gundy just predicted that the Rockets will blow out Portland.
