I need to chime in since I'm a Chowda Head from the Boston area...

After the Lakers, the Cav's are the biggest rivalry we have for basketball. I thought we had little chance of succes against the Cav's. I gave us a chance to make it a 6 game series. I was wrong.

Let's just say it...Lebron quit for Lebron. He's a me guy not a we guy. He needs to find a way to fight and win big games. They say he is one of the best of all time already??? The Celtics have 3 hall of famers with Rondo and Perk. Allen, Pierce, and Garnett are warriors even though being way over the hill. Rondo needs some credit also, this kid gets better and better and is by far the best Celtics player. Mo Williams can't hold Rondo's jock.

I would not count out the C's vs Orlando. Perkins always plays Howard real tough and get's him in foul trouble. The Magic should win in 6, but the C's defense could be the difference maker.

Go C's!

Go C's!

Couldn't have said it better myself. Although I never liked C's in general and Garnett in particular, I think they are mortal when healthy.

By the way, I will be rooting for Suns for the rest of the playoffs. What an underdog story that would be! Steve Nash, definetly my favorite Canadian!

I would really like to see the Suns beat the lakers.....

What would the NBA want???

Lakers vs Celtics (This is the C's last chance with the big 3 and one of the great rivalry in all of sports)
Magic vs Suns (2 small market teams with no history and smallish markets)

I would prefer a C's vs Suns series! And Nash does deserve a ring...

You guys are all crazy. You would rather see the suns? are you joking, their team is garbage steve nash can be shut down with propper defense and amare wont be able to do much against bynum and gasol. even though suns play an up tempo offense they are boring to watch. I have more to comment on but i have to go

Time will tell but I think it is more then they want to let on cause he is a free agent.....or as most Lebron haters are saying perhaps just an "excuse" for playing pathetic.

I agree the C's and Cavs have a good rivalry but the only reason there is one is because of Lebron. Lebron had a bad series no doubt about it, but I don't believe he gave up. He gets undeserved accolades all the time I agree but he did have a triple double last night I don't call that giving up. What they did have a problem with is a lack of defense. Mo Williams can't guard Rondo although personally I think he (Rondo) receives accolades he does not deserve. Shaq should have never started they play better with Varajou in the middle and he plays 110% every game. I would then bring in big Z as a sub for the purpose of clearing out the lane. Boston's big boys just camped there on D and clogged it for LJ. I think Cavs coach was flat out coached and deserves to be fired for that series alone. Anyways all congrats needs to go to the Celtics. Bottom line is they beat the Cavs and really should have swept them except for the game they quit on. Game one should have been Celtics and the series would have been over sooner.

I also am now rooting for the suns--Someone said Steve Nash can be shut down with defense. Sure you are correct somebody just needs to prove it.

Whoa! Rondo doesnt deserve his accolades?.. If he had a better jump shot he would be top 3 players in the league. The guy is still almost unguardable and they KNOW he is going to drive on them..

Rondo is tough to defend, that's for damn sure.

LeBron James didn't quit but his team did. I am mostly pissed about the Cavs loss for two reasons, A) I despise the Boston Celtics because they were the laughing stock of the league for a short while until they bought themselves a championship. Rondo and Pierce has been their best products so far but they wouldn't have made it without the addition of Garnett and Ray Allen. Big Baby Davis? Really, he's one of the biggest dipshits I've seen in all of basketball. I cannot stand watching that sloth play. Scalabrine? Poor excuse for a player. He appears to be the most awkward player on the court at times and I throw up a little inside my mouth each time I watch him play. And oh yeah, Perkins. That dude plays like he's mad at the world, as if one wrong look in his direction and the Sears Tower is next for American structures to be destroyed ... only to see him come up with ho-hum numbers. Oh sure, rebounds are nice and all but is that really all he can offer other than a few blocks here and there? Stupid cunt.

and B) watching LeBron James and Co. flex their muscles against my Bulls made me want them to go on to win it all only because you never want to be the team that lost to the team that lost in the next round.

Mo Williams did not help his team out one bit. Fouling Rajon Rondo to fould himself out of the game would have the Cavs more good than just letting him go to the basket freely. LeBron James can only do 1/5th of the job on the court. He still needs the other four guys to do their parts and when you have Mo Williams jogging up the court, Shaquille O'Neal plodding, Varajao being the one to take the three, Jamarrio Moon stepping out onto the court with that big ass goofy grin of his when the Cavs are down huge in a game they need to ensure a game 7. They disgusted me last night. As a Bulls fan, it disgusts me that I had to cheer this team on only to watch them let the Celtics deficate all over them as if they were the recipients in 2-girls/1-cup.


Just an FYI, I've been pretty sore lately after my Bulls lost and watching the Cavaliers get made to look like little girls.

bosch can play as power forward.

parker, james and bosch... in the same team would be painful for most of the teams.

Hey I understand you have to defend Rondo not saying he isn't good just saying I don't believe he is as good as the C fans think he is. Yes he is quick and can drive and I can't argue with his passion/determination but a PG needs to be able to shoot the outside J, and he isn't exactly the best defender either. His best attribute is driving. In BB terms he has wondrous driving, respectable rebounding, mediocre JS inept JR, and strong Inside shot, proficient passing, proficient handling, mediocre outside defense. It is nice to have a wondrous attribute but somewhere the poor ones will be exposed usually in the playoffs.

I would agree, except a little higher passing and handling
