I turned on the Celts-Cavs game just a few minutes after it had started to find that C’s already down like 20-points. What the heck? I came back later and it was 30.

No big deal, they got killed in Cleveland in what amounted to a completely meaningless game. The Celts were going to be the No. 2 seed in the East win or lose, and they didn’t have Kevin Garnett.
