Cavs matched series with Celtics 2-2
Cavs and Celtics, well both teams have made themselves respect in their courts, at first we thought Boston was heading to Cleveland to easily win game 3 and almost seal a ticket for the Eastern Conference finals, but the Cavs woke up from a nightmare that lasted 2 games and so now they are even in the series with the Celtics 2-2.
And Boston hasn’t being the almighty team we saw in the regular season since they barely made it to round two of the post season as they were forced to game 7 against the Hawks, now they are pushed at least to a sixth match to define the winner of this series.
Final score was 88-77 and Lebron James ended with 21 points, still a little low on his average, but certainly better than his performances on the Garden, while Wally Szczerbiak and Daniel Gibson shot for 14 each for the Cavs, and for the Celtics, none of their 3 All-Stars shot for more than 20, since Paul Pierce finished with 13 points, while Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett each had 15.
It certainly hasn’t being easy for the Celtics, whom are adding one more defeat on the road for a total of 5 on this playoffs, but now is game 5 in Boston, and so they have court advantage and the chance to take the lead on the series 3-2 to then take a trip to Cleveland for game 6, and if they are forced to a 7th match, they still can make it back to the Garden for a victory that will send them to the NBA finals.
