On May 14, the NBA Eastern Conference semifinals G4, the Celtics continued to play away against the Cavaliers. With a big 2-1 lead, the Green Army is eager to go to the next city and get the match point. The Cavaliers are under a lot of pressure.
In the first quarter of the game, Tatum played steadily, hitting 6 of 9 sports shots, scoring 16 points and 4 boards alone, and the Cavaliers' rebounds were exploded, and the overall response was insufficient.
In the middle and late part of the second quarter, when the Cavaliers were trailing by 11 points, Garland scored consecutive throws driven by Strus hitting two consecutive three-pointers, and the Cavaliers sent a wave of 13-3 horror climax, and the wave narrowed the gap to 1 point. The Green Army continued to score in response, Garland hit a three-pointer from the buzzer, and the Green Army made two fouls and made two free throws. Garland continues to soar for 3 points! Tatum hit a three-point step-back shot, and at halftime, the Celtics held it 62-57.
In the third quarter, the Cavaliers sent a wave of 8-2 and directly overtook the score. Brown completed 2+1, and LeVert stepped back to hit a three-point shot. The two sides went back and forth, and the Cavaliers' disadvantage extended to 10 points, and the situation was already quite unfavorable.
In the final quarter, the Cavaliers didn't get a chance, and the Celtics played steadily and continued to improve their advantage. The Cavaliers failed to chase the score, and the game time was getting less and less. In the end, the tide was gone, the Cavaliers fell behind 1-3, and the Celtics got the match point. Mitchell is out for this game, but the team is gone.
The first group of the NBA semifinals came 1-3, but I didn't expect the Cavaliers, who ranked fourth in the East, to hang by a thread. Tatum and Brown continued to play efficiently, and the bench Wonders scored 11 points on 3-of-5 shooting, and the three-point shot was very crucial. Can the Cavaliers usher in Mitchell's comeback in the next round, otherwise there really won't be a chance.
