Don't Blow It!

The Boston Celtics won Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals in fairly impressive fashion. Leave it to Mr. Glass Half Empty to accentuate the negative:
If the Celtics don’t win the series, it will be one of the biggest blown opportunities in Boston sports history

We are four games into this bizarro Eastern Conference final and the only takeaway is that No One Knows Anything and it’s now a best-of-three with Miami holding home-court advantage the rest of the way.

Folks in these parts certainly think the Celtics are the better team and there was nothing on display at TD Garden Monday that would dispute that notion. In a wildly unpredictable series that’s seen sparse late-game drama and multiple beatdowns by both squads, it was the Celtics turn to freeze the Heat in a 102-82 Game 4 rout.

“We didn’t want to go down 3-1,’’ said Celtics coach Ime Udoka. “It wasn’t our best offensive night [39.7 percent shooting from the floor], but we can always rely on our defense. We can do that even if our shots are not falling.’’

If the Celtics don’t win this series and advance to the NBA Finals, this will go down as one of the biggest blown opportunities in Boston sports history.

What a fraud. If the Celts win this fraud will use the tomato can excuse or whatever crap this fraud has puked over the last 20 years discrediting this 20 year run of titles.
