I love how everybody is on the cavs side tonight. I love how everybody expects Lebron to destroy us. Even some celtics fans...

And I love how we are going to win tonight and shut all the haters up, especially all the celtics fans who are scared of Lebron!

There's no doubt that Stern would like another Michael Jordan, who goes to the Finals 5 times in his first 10 years or so. The NBA is just too rigged, and Game 6 clearly showed it.

The East Semifinals are alredy in the books people. Regardless of how good we'll play, the two finalists will be Detroit and Cleveland. The season is over; the Celtics capitulate. :cry:

That is such BS. You honestly think that Stern would prefer to see a Lakers - Cavs finals over a Lakers - Celtics series?

Yes.

I'm almost certain that he wouldn't, a Lakers - Celtics finals is pretty much the best possible outcome for the league. All this talk of games being rigged just smacks of bitterness.

How is criticizing other fans for claiming the league is fixed a violation of the TOS?

Everyone thinks of it as, aw man, we could lose and be sent home.

But, I am going to think of it as, this game, we could win and go to the eastern conference finals!!! Lets go celtics!

I think the cavs have a better defense than the pistons so we would score more points and keep our solid D. We just need to win today! I will be watching form work on a very small and snowy tv.

I just pray to god that Allen, Pierce, and Rondo have been in hibernation and IF we win today they wake up.

not if the celts hit shots. no matter what the refs do, if we hit shots they cant stop a win.

the celts need to shoot lights out like they are capable of doing.

I agree the NBA is rigged and for people to think evey business is on the up and up are truly blind.

but nothing can stop a win if a team shoots well.

Everyone seems to be picking against us. The Celtics team has proven doubters wrong all season long, I trust they'll do it again today.

arent you guys pissed you only got 1 day of rest between game 6 and 7? the spurs/hornets played their game 6 a day earlier than you and then play game 7 a day after you...thats such bs

it should at least be the same or more rest for boston/cleveland

It is a little strange that every other series involved at least one stretch where they weren't going every other day playing. Probably bad for Ray Allen and PJ Brown.

We are 8 pt favorites and I feel semi confident. Lebron still scares the hell out of me.

I don't think I will be the first to say this is the biggest game of my Celtic Fanatic Career and I got the butterflys like a mofo.
