110-106 Under 2:00 mins to play Celts to the line down 4.

Gibson is on fire tonight. This is a really close game.

I love that Z is a great free-throw shooter. Other teams just don't know and/or forget about it.

Cavs 2-1 vs. Celtics this year. KG missed one and LBJ missed one.

Lebron was one board that Z picked from over his head at the end from a triple double. Unfortunately for the Cavs they have to play Boston again at the end of the month and might still be without Andy and Pavs. Hopefully Drew can make a quick recovery and Andy can get back shortly after the All-Star break. The next 5 games are brutal for the Cavs. Day off, at Houston, at Atlanta, day off, Denver, at Orlando, day off, San Antonio. 3 out of 5 over that stretch would be great.

I know it's a long way out to be discussing this, but with the Cavs seven games back in the loss column behind Detroit, the #4 seed would seem to be their ceiling for the playoffs. That's where they sit after tonights game. It would get them home court in the first round, but would also mean a likely 2nd round matchup with the Celtics. At least they've made a good showing against Boston so far.

If we are healthy I think that we can beat Boston in a 7 game series...Boston really doesn't have anyone to give LBJ trouble...He has scored over 30 in his last 7 games against them...

Would be a great series...

If the Cavs have a better record than Orlando they will get the 3rd seed, which would be the best place for them to be. Weren't they the 2nd seed last year with Detroit in 1st? Even when both teams are healthy I think the Cavs are a bad matchup for the Celts.
