Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals kicks off tonight

in #sports7 years ago

Game 1 wasn't much of a game. 

Cleveland dominated from start to finish and the double digit loss was actually slightly closer than it was for most of the game.

Will Game 2 be any different? 

Game 2 will also be played in Boston and it is looking like Gerald Green will get the surprise start in place of Amir Johnson.

If you are not familiar with Green, he was drafted several years back by Boston and had some memorable moments in the Dunk Contest as well as clutch performances for several teams around the league over the past several years. 

He has since made his way home back to Boston and is getting the nod tonight.

In my opinion, he is the wild card tonight because he can get hot at any moment and single handily win (or lose) you a basketball game. 

Details:

The game starts at 8:30 EST and is being televised on TNT.

As of a couple hours ago Boston was getting 5 to 5 and 1/2 points at home.

Cleveland is looking pretty unbeatable right now, but perhaps Boston can keep it within 5.

My Prediction:

Cleveland by 3. 

What do you guys think? Who do you got tonight?

The Cavs look incredible!! I was worried with the way they finished the regular season, but man have they flipped the switch since the playoffs started.

Yep, night and day.

Lebron and Kevin Love had outstanding games.

WOOOOW. 72 vs 31 at first half. That must be a record. Just amazing.

NBA playoffs are boring until the finals.. This isn't healthy for the league. They need to do something about the parity of the teams..Finals will be GS vs. CLE

What was IT doing?Just looking and give up?
Lebron played very clean and well tonight.

He looked disinterested out there.

My 9 year old said they should forfeit the game after the 3rd quarter. That's a telling sign of the lack of effort and how hard it was to watch. Cavs will sweep.
