game --- 1-0 , won 2 units
Cavs rolled to the dominate win as Celtics were in a horrendously bad spot.
LBJ was spectacular, but he did not come close to a triple double.
27 pts, 12 assists and only 5 rebs.
8 of 12 for 66.7%, 3 for 3 on 3's, and he shot 80% from the line on 10 attempts, with an incredible almost even ratio of shots from the field to shots from the line. 1.2 ratio.
But had he got 5 extra rebs but shot 34% from the field and took 4 FT attempts and 15 shots from the field for a 3.45 to 1 ratio but he got those 5 extra rebs then he would of had a much greater game according to triple doubles, once again, damn silly.
What makes LBJ an all-time great is what in he did in game 3.
Celtics have not lost 2 straight ATS yet in playoffs, I suspect Cavs win game 4 but could see either team covering the spread, but would look a bit more to Cavs covering game 4.
It will be a much closer game and I suspect Cavs will get the breaks at the end to just get a cover.
Celtics are 1-5 on the road, their only win coming in game 3 VS 76ers when the 76ers had those very careless TO at the end of game, just stupidity and possible inexperience by the 76ers gave Celtics the win.
There might be some great spots down the road in this series setting up off this big blowout win by Cavs that might go against the grain of conventional thinking based on how things have gone for Celtics in the playoffs thus far , just depends how things playout next game or 2.
And of course if it does we will be hearing all about how the script is in because no possible way it could happen otherwise, it is setting up to happen but things need to playout right next game or 2 games, maybe it does not set-up right, we'll see.
