Celtics @ Heat game 4

[garnett_21]

Game tips on ABC in about 45 minutes. Celtics lead the series 3-0 and are looking to go for the sweep, and to become the first team to move on to the second round in the playoffs! Will the Heat try to look at least somewhat respectable in this series, and send it back to Boston for game 5, or will the Celtics bring out the brooms?

Honestly, it's gonna be a close game today, but I think Boston will make the sweep... first time since '86 i hear? It's always nice to be ahead and have time before the next round. Last year they came off the 7-game set vs. Chicago then right after had a long series vs. Orlando. I think we'll see Pierce and Allen get around 25-30 pts. today, and some bench time/points from T.A. and Baby. I don't know why but I wanna call a Rondo Double-Double for some reason..

Oh, forgot to mention... my schedule for work is a short shift, but yet 2-5.. so I'll be catching the Playoff Playbacks on NBA TV or SportsCenter Highlights

I'm going one step further - a Rondo triple-double!

Unfortunately, I had prior obligations as well, and I'll be gone from about the end of the 1st quarter until well after the game is over. Hope I come home to good news!

Same here! I gotta leave around 1:45 so I'll be catching most of the 1st Q... but still what a blow! I would've called in sick if it were a Game 7

Tip-Off!.... KG drains the first points of the game.

Yes, *cough*cough* I have Celtic fever - only thing that cures it is 2 1/2 hours in front of my TV today. lol

Heat coming out strong...they surely don't want to be swept. 24-14 with about 3:20 to play in the first quarter.

Strong start to the game by em for sure.. Hope they can make it a close game soon, (as I'm getting ready to leave). We'll see.

Nice end to the quarter by Rondo. 31-18 Heat lead.

Miami's rolling - 42-25 with about 7:30 to go in the first half.

Boston on a run! Cut the lead to 11!
