Road worriers

The Celtics continue to struggle away from the Garden, as tonight's 24-point loss at the Quicken Loans Arena will attest to (sports.yahoo.com) ...

On the one hand, Lebron James had another subpar performance shooting from the field (21 PTS, 5-16 FG), but did have eight assists against just two turnovers ... Meanwhile, Pierce (14 PTS, 3-8 FG) and Allen (10 PTS, 4-12 FG) revisited their shooting woes from Game One.

So, we find ourselves in a similar spot now, as the momentum of the series suddenly shifts to the Cavs' favor ... and yet, I'm not really worrying too much about this loss. After all, losing to the Cavs on the road isn't neary as embarrassing as losing to the Hawks (although 20-point losses still aren't that easy to swallow).

Basically, I'm just focusing on the fact that the C's have the numbers on their side, and (until they actually lose a game on their homecourt) there's really nothing to get too worked up over yet ... Am I right, folks?
