Boston played a good portion of that game w/basically 4 players... i 1-handed Rondo who did the best he could, and Shaq who did CRAP the whole game.  Boston certainly is not dead yet, but not sure they can win 3 in a row w/all their health issues.

Sorry, but this is an absolutely ridiculous argument to make. It was their choice to play Rondo when they had a more than suitable guy in Delonte West available to take his place if they felt Rondo wasn't effective enough.

Oh yea, and Shaq played THREE minutes. Cmon man.

Nobody thought the Mavericks would sweep Los angeles like they did,

dallas was +7 the first two games and won them both at Los angeles

atlanta +9.5 wins at chicago game 1

crazy things happen

i think game 5 is the key lets go

neither team has any depth, Boston a little more, but LeBron and Wade are the best players on the floor

Miami at least had 5 HEALTHY players... I'm not saying that Boston didn't have other choices, but if you watched the game, it was crazy how Boston really only had 4 "good" options on either end of the floor for a lot of the game.  Crazy that they chose that.

maybe miami will finally get called for a flagrant for once

how did JO get called for a flagrant yet again last night

but bibby makes no play for the ball and no flagrant

how many flagrants are going to go against the celtics

hopefully the refs help the celtics out for once gat damn

So what exactly are you saying? This is the team they have to work with, and Miami is the better team. Period.

never underestimate the power of david stern to extend a series and then kill the team in the game 7

he does this type of stuff all the time

Boston had plenty of guys that were "healthy" -- Pierce, Allen, KG (nice 2 shots in the 1H, KG, way to step up in a huge game at home and finish with 7 freaking points you front-running bully), Jermaine O'Neal, Delonte, Jeff Green, Big Baby... they just can't do anything to stop LeBron and Wade.

Maybe Rondo should be hurt for all of next season because he played his best offensive game of the year....he actually shot over 25%!

Anything is possible but the last game was IMO the nail in the coffin.

Maybe the Celtics should of gone to Garnett more often. But then again 1-10 from the field is so Kevin Garnett'esk'!!

yes, if boston can win gm 5, all the pressure switches to the heat... just don't think it will happen, though think boston will keep it close.

You should stop dreaming. your avatar speaks a lot of your hatred. move on CelticsThug. your Boston Celtics is done. Celts is a great organization. It's full of shame asking for a series extension from David Stern. Best of Luck next season.
