After a game 3 victory by the Cleveland Cavaliers over the Boston Celtics I came to one conclusion; Coach Rivers may be nicknamed Doc however he does not have any cure for the Celtics lackadaisical play away from home. Sorry Doc, but there ain’t a prescription for that. Look for the Cavaliers – Celtics series to be tied 2 – 2 after the game 4 tonight. The Celtics have not won away from home so far this post-season and after their sub-par performance in game 3 one must begin to wonder why they lack the intensity during their away games.
Of course the Celtics had the best regular season record in the league and could by winning all their home games; win the NBA championship without having to win a single away game. Nevertheless, they won’t be playing the Atlanta Hawks in these playoffs anymore so they shouldn’t be expecting all easy home games either. The Cavaliers have had such shitty performances from Lebron James in the first two games in Boston; however don’t bet on that happening in game 5. I know I like to hate on James all the time but lets be real Lebron can easily have himself one of those playoff-defining moments and have his team up 3 – 2 going into game 6 in Cleveland.
The way I see it Lebron is a winner whether we (I) like it or not; Garnett, Pierce, and Allen have throughout their careers shown us that they have all been perennial losers.
