No Luck For These Irish and Thunder Even Their Series

Some more NBA action was seen tonight with the second game between the Celtics and the Heat. Somewhat of a close game until the end when the Heat managed to pull off a 14-0 run to get the a clear lead. The Heat would win game 2, 102-91. Dwayne Wade was the big man the other night but tonight LeBron James was the big man with 35 points and 7 rebounds. Not that Wade didn't have good night himself; he got 28 points and 8 rebounds. The Celtics are now down in the series 0-2 heading back to Boston. I'm sure the Garden will try and rally their Celtics back in this series but it looks pretty bleak right now.

The second game of the day featured game 2 between the Grizzlies and the Thunder. The Grizzlies took game 1 and shocked the Thunder with their big men. That shock, however, may have just woken the Thunder up. The Thunder would take game 2, 111-102. Kevin Durant did have 26 points but some great bench work by the Thunder came in handy, especially from James Harden with 21 points. The bench had a total of 48 points in this game.

The Celtics' odds of moving on just became significantly lower with their second loss to the Heat. Meanwhile, the Thunder have come alive and may have put the Grizzlies in their place.
