Get it out of your system

3. “C’mon, Eddie.”

Wallow in the absurdity of Doc Rivers being hit with a technical foul for not properly genuflecting before referee Eddie Malloy.

Cringe at Kevin Garnett drawing a team technical after tapping the ball.

Vent at the travesty of what passes for officiating in the NBA when you're favored team is facing the Miami Heat in South Beach.

Get it out of your system.

Now, let’s talk about what matters after Boston’s 93-79 loss in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals.

Starting with the amazing end-to-end play of LeBron James and Dwayne Wade.

Or the 11 blocked shots by the Heat.

Or the continued lack of production from the Celtics bench.

James was unstoppable Monday night. The Celtics were unwatchable for three out of four quarters. Clanged free-throws. Missed jumpers. Tepid defense in the second half. Even when they took two points off the board at half-time, all the Celtics could do was manage a tie. Boston has yet to hold a lead in the Eastern Conference finals.
