Who is the Most Overrated Team in the East ..aka.. Why Boston Sux.

Lebron is just having no luck at all this season. big blow for the Cavs. Love gets a lot of slack but he's been great this year.

Could definitely see the Cavs slipping away from the top 4.. imagine Lebron not having home court in the first round? Would be tough for even him to get to the finals. Has a team in the bottom half of the standings ever made the finals before?

1998-99 Knicks come to mind. Reached the finals as an 8th seed.

Has a team ever come back being down 3-1?

Houston vs clippers in the western semis like 2012 or 13 I think.

RIP Rasual Butler. Last picture is quite horrific.

Well tonight the Chowders get the Knicks on their first game back from a lucky to get 2 and 2 road trip out west....The Knicks are but three games out of the playoffs and a win here would draw them within 2 if Philly loses .... The Knicks will give Boston a good run as they have size up front and an inside game that can give the small ball Celtics some issues. If the Chowders lose this one... The Raps go a game up in the loss column and are within a half game of the first place goal.

Philly plays in Brooklyn where its always tough to get a win these days .... Not sure if the NBA's part time star Joel Embiid is scheduled to play tonight but if he is slight advantage to Philly.. but if he is not due to rest then I like Brooklyns chances...

Of the three teams that the now Griffin led Pistons have to catch.... Philly is the closest....next up the ladder is Indy who gets Memphis at home and should come out ahead against the now tanking Grizz.

The Heat who are chasing the Lebrons for 3rd are the game of the night tonight vs the now love-less lebrons. Cleveland is in a mess right now .... Cleveland is pretty slow and the Heat run hard for 48 minutes ....and are a lot younger. What would have been an upset win now isn't. Heat W.

Smart is still on the shelf too right? So is Rozier going to play 48 minutes?

yeah smart is still on the shelf... two weeks for punching a picture that dissed him in a hotel room.....
i guess its rozier and larkin that will go tonight....

looks like Irvings knee is giving him trouble .... and he needs to rest it....
this guy has been playing a ton of ball this year ... he isn't the most durable of players....

Starting point guard, for your Boston Celtics: Jim in section 212, row 13, seat 6!

[Ebonhawke]

Jesus, the Knicks' offense is horrible

[Ebonhawke]

Heat go 1 for 16 from beyond the arc in the first half, yet still lead the Cavs by two.

[Mitch P]

Knicks look horrible other than Kanter. Nominees for most overrated or most overhyped player in the league? Porzingis? He might be great eventually but currently Horford is much better

[Ball]

Knicks doing us no favors by losing to a Celtics team without Irving or Smart...
