Monday night the Cavaliers received a playoff beatdown from the Boston Celtics.  It was terrible to watch.  LeBron was not at his best, obviously resulting in a Cavaliers defeat.  Mike Brown summed it up:

“They kicked our behind from the beginning,” lamented a visibly upset Coach Mike Brown. “They got every 50/50 ball, they converted every offensive rebound into points and we did not fight back until late. We have to decide if we are going to take the fight to them and take these games. Nothing is going to be given to us at all.”

Asked again what went wrong, Brown asserted,  "We all got our behind kicked. Every single one of us, starting with myself, did not fight tonight and it showed on the court. You gotta give the Celtics credit. It's 1-1, but let's keep it real, they kicked out behinds tonight."

We made a run in the 4th quarter but it was too little, too late.  Rajon Rondo ties a franchise record in assists, and we lose by 18.  Not exactly what we were hoping for.

Let's just pretend like this one didn't happen.  Talking, or thinking about this game is pointless. It's clear that we need to win at least one game in Boston during this series.  Hopefully they just win the next 2 and then close Boston at home in Game 5.  As dedicated Cavaliers fans, we must humbly accept defeat but it realize it was a fluke.  LeBron's elbow will get some much needed rest and we will come out Friday with much more intensity.  The Cavaliers don't lose 2 games in a row.  We're better than that.  LeBron James is still Underrated
