Boston Beats Cavs 104-86 in Game 2

The window hasn't closed on the Boston Celtics. It's still wide open. Rajon Rondo tied a team playoff record with 19 assists, Ray Allen scored 22 points and the Celtics, showing they're still very dangerous despite their years, opened a 25-point lead in the fourth and then survived Cleveland's comeback for a 104-86 win on Monday night to even their ...

It will be another year that the Cavs will come up short and
we will hear the same old tune (Next Year)This is the true story
of Cleveland.

we were there. it was awful. The cavs couldn't seem to hang onto the ball or put it thru the hoop. sloppy tonight.

I think lebron is hurt worse than he is letting anyone know. Time to let him rest and let someone else play

[JCU Dave]

Expected... Cavs in 6 still my opinion

I think its time for the Cavs to come clean and tell everyone what LeBron's elbow problems really are. How much can we count on him for whatever is left of the playoffs? Right now the team is playing four-on-five and that's not fair to the rest of the team. Hey Mike, its time to put the chew down and make some REAL coaching decisions.

Can't win them all. Oh, well, GO CAVS!!!!!!!

[Carl Jenkins]

Quite simply the Cavs are poorly coached. Time and time again I've watched and just scratched my head. Mike Brown has no clue what he's doing. I could easily sit here and type example after example of his poor coaching abilities and decisions, but that would take far more time than I want to put into this. All season long the Cavs have "cruised" through the game thinking/knowing that they could turn up the heat and tempo at will and beat their opponent. Last night they got a wake up call that they are not facing the same level of competition. This in and of itself is another example of poor coaching. Brown having allowed this casual attitude during the season created the problem we saw last night.

ofcourse we're going to win the whole thing, bad elbow or not. it's our time.-side note- Wayne your slippin, I expected you to be killed over on the couch (jokingly ofcourse) when they did the segment about beautiful women being bad for your heart, knowing your next to those two beautiful ladies everyday.

Has anyone considered that the team may have celebrated LBJ's MVP award a bit too much on Sunday and the focus of intensity that is normally in their eyes was missing do to the award presentation again on Monday??? I believe they will come back with a vengeance!!!! Go CAV's!!!!!

[Big Daryle]

The Cavs had better get it going, they could very easily be behind 2-0.

[Tiffany]

I hope no one sleeps on the celtics.The celtics are in it to win it.Last year was rough because they had injuries,but this year they playing hard,and Lebron and the cav's cant stop them,they wont stop them.
Its boston b!tch.

If the Cavs lose, the Cavs lose Lebron.

[Babs]

Disappointing Cleveland year after year. Hey Lebron, You could do the same thing in a Browns uniform.

Denver doesn't need to worry about meeting up with the Cavs, they just need to wonder who's going to pick them off this year.

I agree~When LBJ was awarded the MVP last year- facing same team, same game, same result! They will bounce back & take the series!

My son lives in Boston- A HUGE CAVS fan, He will be sitting right behind the Cetics bench wearing his Cavs gear!

All you nay sayers are ridiculous. You'll be the same ones writing how awesome "your" cavs are once they win it all. They are by far the best team in the league. LBJ is the best player to ever play the game, and Mike Brown is a GREAT coach.

They lose one game and this bs already starts... GET A LIFE!
