Why are Celtics favored over Lebron today?

[tokio]

hopefully Cavs pick it up the 2H.

This happened earlier in the season
Cavs should make a comeback and cover

Still? It's been two years since they were the team to beat.

Last year Cleveland and Orlando were better, this year Cleveland, Orlando, and Atlanta are better.

This was a meaningless road game for Cleveland.

Cleveland is the team to beat in the East and I'd bet heavily on Boston not winning the East.

I'm chasing my ass off. This should put me up 13 units for the night. I shoulda never chose the Cavs+2.5...

[jjgold]

easy winner

Banged up last year in the playoffs. Have all their guys this time around, they'll be a tough out in the playoffs.

Cavs 31-16 fourth quarter to cover my spread. LOL!!! J/K...

Garnett is a shell of his former self.

Like I said, they are far from being the team to beat.

Are they a good team? Yeah, but they're the bottom team in the upper tier of the East (four legit teams in the East: Cleveland, Orlando, Atlanta, and Boston).

Even with today's win, they have a pretty bad record against teams over .500, and they likely will be the fourth seed (a game back of Atlanta, but Atlanta holds the tiebreaker).

I think they would beat Miami or Milwaukee, but then lose to Cleveland in the second round.

look what we have here

[ANGRYBLACK]

Vegas has a bunch of scientists doing this spread sh1t...

[seaborneq]

So that's why the Celtics were favored?

[hoopster42]

come on man, you're better than this - the gm was meaningless to cleveland. theyre all meaningless for cleveland until the playoffs start

[gabbysabe]

they did make a comeback but it was to late

[incomeraise]

Cleveland just didn't play good the first 3 quarters...but its all good.I wonder who is going to win the East,,

[gabbysabe]

The cavs only need 1 game to lock up the east

[Johnny 55]

Celtics are through, out in the first round.

[seaborneq]

The cavs only need 1 game to lock up the east

Locked everything up with the Lakers' implosion against the Spurs.

[hoopster42]

the cavs only need 1 game to lock up the east

are you fukking stupid? The cavs already locked up hm crt advantage in the east and even if the lakers go 5-0 in the last 5 gms and the cavs go 0-5, they will still have hm crt for the playoffs in the finals as well because they went 2-0 vs the lakers

you are clueless

[gabbysabe]

They locked up the east today with the lakers lost

If you read what he wrote he didn't say anything about home court in the finals

You are clueless

Did i say that they wouldn't have home court doing the p\layoffs jump off my nuts and read before you try to reply to me

[OverUnder]

lebron = lejoke

[robert_wrath]

Boston needs a better spot in the East for playoffs. Cleveland has it pretty much locked up for position in the east.
