Had a down year and stumbled into the playoffs then dominate Miami and have for the most part been the better team with the all mighty Cavs. Celts up huge tonite in Cleveland...will take 3-2 lead!

I can't tell you who these Celtics are, but I can tell you that these are the same old post-season Cavaliers.

Nah. This Celts squad has a good postseason build, but just a bit old and injured to dominate over the course of a long regular season. Celts and Magic are the class of the East and two of the top 3 in the league.

Yeah, I can agree with that. These do look like the C's of a couple years ago.

However, blowout road wins like this don't happen unless the home team mails it in.

They mailed it in, but Celts pounded them too. Celts are a better defensive team and has more ways to attack offensively. When Cleveland's leader isn't rolling, they're through.

The Celtics are what BPV called them, a team that is built for the playoffs.

Very good defense and a team that knows it's offensive identity.

Everyone plays within themselves, unlike the Cavs who have panicked when down and forced multiple shots.

Mo Williams should be ashamed of himself, he should be forced to give his earnings back to the Cavs.

LeBron looked to get his teammates involved early, which is nothing new but at some point he has to understand that he is the man and he needs to get himself going.

Taking 3 shots in the first half is unacceptable, by comparison, Pierce had 15 shots in the first half. That disparity tells you everything you need to know about the game.

The series is over in my mind, the Celtics know how to close out a series and the Cavs have just lost all confidence.

Next question....where does LeBron play next year?

The C's started off the season 23-4 until the injury bug hit them hard. Pierce, KG, Ray, & Rondo have all went through some kind of injury this season. They were never able to stay completely healthy & get a good rythm going after their great start. Now that their finally healthy your seeing what they can do. When the C's are healthy they are the best defensive team in the league because they have a GREAT rotating defensive. That's why the Cavs always have a hard time with them, because they make Lebron a jump shooter & everyone knows thats his biggest weakness of his game.

I still dont think this series is over, I really think that will all the scrutinity that Lebron is getting today from the media that he will try & go off in Boston on Thursday. I could really seeing this go back to Cleveland. Either way I still dont see the C's advancing past the Magic, they are playing the best basketball right now & they looked really determined.
