First, I want to say fuck TNT for not letting us hear Paul Pierce's thank you speech. Second, it was a hell of a game. Maybe not a game 7 in the playoffs good but good none the less. Paul Pierce had one of the most emotional ring ceremonies I have ever seen, if you didn't get teary eyed watching it you are unamerican. He also was the catalyst to the Celtics tonight as he scored 27 points. KG had only 11 points and Ray Allen only had 6. Rondo played well after getting in early foul trouble as he scored 14 points, 6 assists, 5 rebounds and 3 steals and the question about how Tony Allen will do replacing James Posey went away as he played excellent defense and scored 11 points on 4-9 shooting. Also, don't worry about the departure of P.J. Brown scare you, "Hard Work" Leon Powe has it covered with 13 points and a timely dunk at the end of the game.
As for the Cavs, LeBron James had 21 points and was off a majority of the night especially at the free throw line(3-6), his newly acquired wing man Mo Williams scares me but was contained well by Rondo only scoring 12 points. The Cavs are starting to be my new Pistons, they play unnecessarily chippy and I hate them, they talk the talk, and don't walk the walk.
Strong concern: The Celtics missed a ton of free throws going 21-34 from the line.
