Are Cavs conceding #1 seed???

KRIT · 04-10-17, 04:24 PM

Cavs have the tie breaker over the Celtics. All they have to do is win one of their remaining two games. By the looks of it, they rest tonight, and then go all out on Wednesday at home against the Raptors.

jjgold · 04-10-17, 04:27 PM

Hope they lose 2 in a row

Conceding would be the dumbest move in NBA history

HOME COURTS ARE HUGE

This is wrong.

Both teams are tied, if they lose tonight, Boston controls their own destiny.

So, yes, Cleveland is conceding. They must not think much of Boston.

Mac4Lyfe · 04-10-17, 04:28 PM

Krit - Don't they have to win both of their remaining 2 games??? Unless Boston loses a game.

If celtics go 2-0 and Cavs 1-1, Celtics take the #1 seed

SamsNCharge99 · 04-10-17, 04:31 PM

Hawks last 3 games have all been wins....1 against boston and 2 against the cavs. Maybe the dark horse in the east?????

Cavs would have to play them round 2 compared to Conference finals.

I get Lebron has been to 6 straight finals, but isn't there some pride after blowing a 26 point lead to want to come out the next day and go out there and win

KRIT · 04-10-17, 04:35 PM

My mistake. Yes, they must be conceding, assuming Boston doesn't blow it.

Personally, I don't think #1 seed means all that much to them. I still think the distance between them and the next best team in the East is pretty big. We all saw what they did to Celtics in Boston last week.

Not if Celtics win last two.

Cavs simply don't care. If they did, would not be resting LeBron and Irving tonight.

They don't need HC to beat Boston.

keel44 · 04-10-17, 06:56 PM

Tell the fans no you can't go to a home playoff game 7.... Stupid

jjgold · 04-10-17, 07:17 PM

I hope they do not get into finals

Most rooting against them
In USA

slayer14 · 04-10-17, 07:24 PM

They where 5/1 to beat the heat today

jjgold · 04-10-17, 08:22 PM

Well looks like they will win

Get homecourt

With subs

SamsNCharge99 · 04-10-17, 08:44 PM

4th quarter meltdown. Team cant close.

Unless postseason lebron comes to play

lakerboy · 04-10-17, 08:53 PM

Let's not forget James has never lost a Eastern series as a 2 seed

kidcudi92 · 04-10-17, 09:01 PM

Cavs do want Pacers

The 2 OT game showed that

smitch124 · 04-10-17, 09:06 PM

The Celtics have to make it to the ECF for this to even matter. Big if.

krk1030 · 04-10-17, 09:28 PM

If they play like they are capable of home court wont matter.

And if they play like they are right now...home court cant save them.

Mac4Lyfe · 04-10-17, 09:41 PM

Cav's did not want to play Miami or Chicago in the first round. Smart move to concede the #1 spot. Celtics are going to get bounced by one of these teams... Watch

Regul8er · 04-10-17, 10:58 PM

i know the discussion is "Cavs will turn it on in the playoffs" but I'm not so sure....they seem vulnerable this year. Not sure if all of the energy they exerted last year, but they just don't feel like the same team. They could very easily win the East, but I don't think they will have a cakewalk in any one round.

Bulls are not beating anyone 1st round.

Very vulnerable

No defense

They could never beat GSW even 1 game

SamsNCharge99 · 04-11-17, 07:33 AM

people talk about the past too much. Lebron hasn't lost a first round series ever. Cavs haven't lost a first round playoff game in like 2 years..cavs when the weather is above 72 degrees on a weekend always wins their games by 12.3 points unless its a leap year

Like I look at it right here right now what's going on with the team and it's not pretty. They dominant celtics on the road and since then lost 3 straight. Not a good way to enter the playoffs.

Lebron also will be sitting out finale game of season Wednesday

Lol.

LT Profits · 04-11-17, 08:37 AM

LeBron already announced Out for season finale Wednesday, so Cavs REALLY don't care about seeding!

jjgold · 04-11-17, 08:41 AM

Huge mistake

I say -130 they do not get to finals

Boston has no shot..... cavs win the east.. west is up for grabs. GSW, Spurs, clips could all honestly come out the west

jjgold · 04-11-17, 10:00 AM

Lu gets fired if they lose before finals

No brainer

I really don't see any match up other than Cavs vs G.State round 3. Really don't want the Cavs to make it though
