"HOME IS WHERE ONE STARTS FROM." T. S. Eliot

BASS WITH THE STUFF! THE STUFF!
Of LeBaby, Mozgov...enough, enough.
SMART FOR THREE! Smart hard to the hoop!
Love is as annoying as the rest of his group.

AB FOR THREE! AB FOR THREE!
Whiny LeBaby. Special applause for IT.
Da Time for Datome! Sully in the post--
His soft shot and work ethic, Ainge loves the most.

Cs within 6 start Q2, it would be wise:
LeBaby? Ok. Cover the OTHER guys.
Jerebko rebounding. Incredible hustle Cs!
The energized sellout crowd this does please.

Cs a 9-0 run. Hard foul by (Sign) The Swede.
JR with the T. Turner! AB! Cs take a lead.
Cavs a 12-0 run (ugh). Cs within 8 start Q3.
Zeller flew down the floor! What a sight to see!

Brad: first half Cs played with energy, not with poise.
Still you have to love the Crowd and these Boys!
Cavs an 11-0 run. CROWDER FOR THREE!
Is this the Sullinger we've been waiting to see?

CROWDER FOR THREE! What a great guy to have!
Drafted by the Cavs before he became a Mav.
Cs hanging tough, within 8 start Q4!
Foul called on Smart--LeBaby whined on the floor.

Jerebko, Turner, Zeller...Celtic Ball!
Does every shot for LeBaby seems to fall?
CROWDER! Caused LeBaby an over and back!!
Aggression and Energy Crowder does not lack!

Cs a 14-6 run, great to be a Cs Fan.
Gotta love these Cs--to a man.
Love, LeBaby stepped up. Cavs the higher score.
But the Celtics played hard from tip through Q4.

Win or lose, these Cs have Pride!
We Fans are starting a glorious ride!
Feeling no intimidation, Cs have no quit--
No complaining, no whining--always in it.

Cs will learn to control emotions, play with poise,
Be aggressive and get used to the Best Fans' noise.

CELTICS HOOORAH!

"[Brad's]...GOT THEM PLAYING THE RIGHT WAY AND PLAYING TOGETHER." Gregg Popovich

Brad showed the Cs film, but it was not about ball.
It was a man with muscular dystrophy--did the Marathon: ALL!
The message is clear--it's about Team, Focus, it's about Heart.
And not letting the naysayers take us apart.

Cs started out well, despite awful calls on AB.
(He's been called more this season for his brand of D).
Head Up Plays, Turner, Zeller and Bass,
The latter hardworking, playing with poise and class.

SMART FOR THREE! Cs 15-3; Cavs 8-2 run.
Cs taking charges--no calls, no fun!
20 pounds lighter Sully. SULLY FOR THREE!
LeBaby is less a problem than is Kyrie.

(Jerk) JR Smith (last game) said maybe he is like Kobe,
Can't be touched (3 quick fouls)--talking about AB.
Cs up 1 at the end of Q1!
AB FOR THREE! REFS still having fun.

AB FOR THREE! OLYNYK FOR THREE!
Cs 8-0 run, Cavs 8-0, SULLY FOR THREE!
7 ties, 8 lead changes, Cs within 1 end Q2.
Phantom foul on Smart--refs get bored, too.

Every time Smith fouls, says that C is untouchable.
Cavs a 15-2 run, don't like them very muchable.
SO MANY TERRIBLE CALLS I HAVE LOST TRACK!
A fair shake (and going to the hoop) the Cs lack!

Cs started driving the ball mid Q3--
How many fouls on Love to make ONE foul? Three!
With or without the refs, the Cs could lose the game--
Let really see Cs vs Cavs, outcome could be the same.

Marv! C. Webb--are they for real?
Every Cs TO they call a steal.
Jerebko rebounded--Cavs "..lost the handle on the ball."
They say the Cs are fouled, then confirm refs' opposite call.

CROWDER! THOMAS! TURNER!...and just maybe
Refs are starting to make calls on Love and LeBaby.
Cs stopped going to the hoop, they're jacking up threes,
That's how the Cavs can beat the Cs.

Cavs by 8, but there is no shame.
Lots of positives for the Cs from this game.
(Mozgov fouled out). In these Cs there's no quit.
We'll get to the Gahden (there's hope) and go after it!

Twenty-five players through, these Cs have come far.

OLYNYK FOR THREE! OLYNYK dunk! We want more!

SMART FOR THREE! Cs are aggressive both ends--
The crowd's not happy. Cs aren't here to make friends.

Early foul trouble on Olynyk. Love took a charge? Hah, no.
The officiating has to go the way we know it will go.
SMART FOR THREE! Cs within 8 end Q2.
20 points Kyrie, first half, playoffs debut.

Shooting foul for Love who never had the ball.
Then the third foul on Love, a make up call?
Smith decked Olynyk--where's the flagrant call?
Second chance, third chance. Cavs rebounding the ball.

SMART! Ouch. Took a shot in the face.
(Not like he's expecting a call in this place).
LeBaby came up gimpy, turns out he's okay.
Exciting watching Crowder starting to play!

Cs a 14-0 run, THOMAS FOR THREE!
No quit in these Cs, playing tough D.
Cavs a 9-0 run, Jones at the buzzer for three.
Cs (were down 20) within 15 end Q3.

It's raining threes for the Cavs. Crowder is tough!
Where's Avery Bradley is this game so tough?
CROWDER FOR THREE! THOMAS FOR THREE!
Finally shots are connecting for AB.

Cs fast break, Thomas has a Double Double.
(Next game) Cs can pull together, cause some trouble.
Pressey, Time For Datome. Better playing we will see.
Cavs won this game by Ten Plus Threw.

This series is not over, it is just Game One.
Cs have competitive spirit--that's how games are won!

The Pacers are in town, every game Cs must fight!
Shav's elbow, meet Olynyk's eye, still he'll play tonight.

So far he's the leading...everything of our group.

Cs good ball movement, a lot of shots are short.

To the ever poised, capable, reliable Bass.

Cs up 6 at the start of Q4.
LOVE CROWDER! OLYNYK FOR THREE!
He plays better when out of one eye he can't see ;)

Coast to coast, hard, went Jae Crowder.
Finally the Celtics Fans got louder.
Smart smacked to the floor by Scola, Hill the call?
Yikes! Smart will hurt later, he took quite a fall.

Third TRIPLE DOUBLE FOR TURNER, on NBAtv,
The world gets to see how Turner fits as a C!
OLYNYK FOR THREE! The Cs played great,
Zeller and Olynyk combined for 38.

LOVE CROWDER! AB FOR THREE!
