Re: Second Round: Boston vs Cleveland

I love our chances with Cleveland. Down low, they have no answer for Garnett. Wallace gives up half a foot and Ilgauskas isn't athletic enough to to stop him. Garnett also doesn't have to play defense on Wallace, so he can save energy and use it for whatever we need. Perkins can do a good job on Ilgauskas. Rondo will school West in every part of the game. And whoever Szczerbiak guards will go off. As for LeBron, Pierce has a lot of size, length and strength to compete on D. Posey is also a great guy to put on LeBron. I really think we should play LeBron 1 on 1 with Pierce or Posey on him at all times. We don't want Gibson, West, Szczerbiak getting open looks or Ilgauskas, Varejao and Smith getting easy layups.

Re: Second Round: Boston vs Cleveland

Yeah play Lebron 1 on 1, i want to see posey get a ton of minutes on him i think he can trouble him the most..

Ray should get open looks all day, and KG should get his mid-range off over ben all series.

I say we take it in 6, Just stealing the last one in cleveland

I think that's a pretty good assessment. I agree about Pierce and Posey on Lebron and I would switch a little more often than normal to wear him down. Cos I don't care who you are, LeBron is hard to guard.
And since Wallace is more of a defensive threat, if LeBron gets past them, KG has it.
We're going to have to play excellent defense, take care of the ball and just keep it moving.

Re: Second Round: Boston vs Cleveland

Lebron just had possibly the worst game of his career, especially in a big game

luckily for him, so did Ray AND Pierce.. those 2 better wake up for game 2, KG cant do it all himself.

huge props to him on a monster game though

Re: Second Round: Boston vs Cleveland

That was a solid win. Don't worry about LeBron's horrible game (2-17, 10 turnovers), since Pierce couldn't hold on to the ball and missed his way to a playoff career low. Ray had the worst game of his NBA career. As for LeBron's atrocious game, it wasn't all just an off game. Pierce played excellent D on LeBron(which is the only thing he did well), forcing half of his 10 turnovers and making him take the jumpshot. Posey forced the other 5 turnovers and locked in during the clutch and gave up nothing.

Re: Second Round: Boston vs Cleveland

Don't try telling that to the Lakers fans, they'll simply cry and shout and tell you that both teams really suck. What's worrying them is that the NBA Fnals refs will take this sort of "let'em play" approach, and that Gasol will break down weeping in the first quarter of game 1 and never recover.
