PLAYOFFS, Rnd 2, Gm 1 – Cavaliers @ Celtics – 7:00PM, Tues, May 7, 2024

I like Evan Mobley’s potential but he’s softer than our guys.

If they go the Mobley on Tatum route, he will be in foul trouble all series.

They’re better off using Okoro+help, and keeping Mobley on the court. But what do I know, I’m just an nba coach.

I knew you were Monty Williams.

Cs in 4.

Mitchell is playing hurt.

Jarrett might also be out for the entire series.

Should be interesting to see what Joe does. If Mobley is starting at 5 do we try and use Luke’s size off the bench or do we give Tillman a shot? If mobleys athleticism kills both of those guys Queta would seem to be a great matchup. Similar athleticism much longer though.

Taylor Snow - The Celtics are playing boos over the loudspeakers as Jaylen Brown shoots free throws. Derrick White started chiming in with boos of his own at one point.

White should also boo him during the game

Spoiler:

Just to make it the same as practice and therefore make him comfortable of course.

Didn't Miami fans want Boston too?

To be fair, each time the fan bases chant it their options are being eliminated or playing Boston.

Seeing a few more games is nice, although not sure why Miami fans wanted it if they didn't show up for them.

If Mobley is at the 5, Joe can go with Brissett in place of Al.

JT and JB can defend Mobley.

It's the fans version of pulling the chair.

It sounds like cattle chanting "We want the knife!" as they march into the abattoir

I hope he puts a lot of money on that, lol.

Little known fact - each one of those boos was an individual recording of BK2020.

That's really funny!

That Cavs-Magic series was probably the most unremarkable 7-game series I can remember watching. The Cavs are bad. But then again they got Celtics-killers Strus and Levert. This should be over in 5. If it reaches 7, we're not good enough for the ECF opponent.

[TheMartian]

Cs in 5, unless D. Wade is back…then it goes 7.

Good God Almighty... the Cavs have Dean Wade?

[Andre3822]

Mobley has bad hands and is afraid to go up. Physical game at the 5 doesn't suit him. Without Allen they are cooked, Kornet would start for them tomorrow.

Imagine having to give Tristan Thompson and MORRIS playoff minutes in 2024. Al might drop 30 this series.

Full circle series. The last time Cs faced the Cavs in the playoffs, Mook was still playing for the good guys. We just need to bring back Aron Baynes.
