Live Thread: Cavs @ Celtics 2017-05-25 Off By Nate Smith LeBron James. Closeout game. Let’s hope the Celtics are looking like the pic above once they hit the fourth quarter. ‘Nuff said? The Point-Fourward: Big Three Better Than Little One InstaCap [R3G5]: Cavs 135, Celtics 102 (Boulevard of Broken Records)
Let the Punk-Dray tour begin
Two years in a row both teams are healthy coming into the finals.

Can you send this to all the idiots who keep saying it took him more games.
It’s stupid. They’re both epic.
I got to say this objectively: Sure they did not call hand-checking fouls in Mj’s days, yet in play-offs you could not get close to MJ without getting whistled for the foul. LBJ never gets close to the foul calls that M J would g et
Yep. Those good Cavs teams of the Wilkens era couldn’t breathe on Jordan without getting called. It also didn’t help that Wilkens would not do anything different defensively against Jordan. (The Shot was a rare exception — he had Nance and Ehlo try to double-team Jordan on the inbounds to deny him the ball. Jordan got free anyway.)
This Claws preview is disturbing. Like seriously?
Two two things I was looking forward to after tonight:
1) Cavs in the Finals.
2) No more TNT show trailers.
LeBron puts oscar robertson as his number two. OK. That’s bizarre. How can Magic not be in the top 7??
Did you know that even though LeBron passed Jordan in playoff scoring, he has played in more playoff games than Jordan did? ‘Cause I’m not sure if they mentioned that.
But less shots.
I guess I needed to add the /s. They couldn’t mention the record without bringing up the games difference.
Man, we are so blessed. So excited for the finals. It’s like return of the King. The best of the three lord of the rings movies.
Two Towers was the best of those.
It was, which isn’t a good sign
Crazy season of highs and lows. Now we go for all the marbles, can’t wait!!!
Cols and Nate getting along in the comments.
LeBron back to the finals.
Some things never change. AND SOME DO!?
Gonna watch the trophy then go to bed. Happy night Cavs fans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Derrick Williams looks good.
Can’t argue.
Dahntay Jones looked good too, especially for a guy who didn’t play all year
It was good to see James stroking the theee tonight.
I love my dog.
TMI
Gerald Green is garbage time king….dude is lights out when game is way out of reach
Was Zeller this bad on the Cavs? So slow
So windhorst was on Lowe post and complaining again that LeBron was tired because minutes. Yet he came out tonight and dominated.
Guess who still won’t ever say he was wrong? It’s so annoying.
Yes exactly. He said he played too many minutes and probably wouldn’t ever score another basket again and should probably retire why even try. You summed it up well. Good job smart guy.
Windy is a slave to his narratives
Your last sentence is rich, considering its source. Seriously, rofl.
James Jones dunk!
Goddammit. Insuck.
I’m glad that they won this game so confidently. See ya’ll June ONE!
DWill and Kyle Korver going to their first Finals, right? They must be fired up.
I remember my first Finals back in 2007 :)
Sitting on either side of Lebron on the bench.
Are you someone we know? Ira Newble?
All Eyez On Me is the Sergeant Pepper of rap. That album is so great.
Finals will be epic.
Let’s hope they are.
I like the Kia commercials.
The King’s in the building…
So if RJ retires, does Derrick Williams step into his minutes and role? What’s his contract situation?
Pretty sure he’ll be a free agent who will probably get bigger offers than the Cavs will be able to give him. And he’s too young to pass up a bigger payday, unless he has been extraordinarily disciplined with his money.
Three straight Funals. Unreal. This alone makes it a successful season.
Why can’t you be this cogent all the time?

Derrick Williams, nation’s best 11th man.
Tom needs to go on the Bill Simmons podcast tomorrow.
For real tho…will Ana Horford curse us? She’s the real based god after all
Video games have passed me by.
The only thing more consistent than the Cavs offense is the Mila Kunis Jim Beam commercial
Four long years…
Eh. The Mummy looks dumb. But it has Tom Cruise. Maybe a stream.
Mummy Impossible
id agree, but think it may be super dumb to even stream
amazing both teams played bad for most of their home games you would think opposite would be true….yes Cavs won Game 4 but they played average to bad in first half…..they come to Boston and close out in like 15 minutes…crazy impressive
Olynyk, Horford, and GerbilCo look like delta bravos from the most obnoxious frat on campus.
LOL
they are the Omegas from Animal House….especially Jerebko
He looks like a composite of all the d-bag bullies from every 80’s movie
this is ugly basketball hahaha…..really can’t believe Celtics went out like this….that 1st qtr really brought them down and halftime killed them
