Horford is looking his age. KP is a big absence.

Garland finally gets going and we're not looking for him?

3 minutes left. Not sure. Cavs need to hit shots and get stops I don't think they'll be able to stop the scoring

Jason Tatum is such a frustrating player. He drives, he has success. Yet, he drives 1 out 5 times and would rather shoot the fadeway. Can somebody tell him he ain't Kobe.

Interesting Celtics traded for Xavier Tillman but haven't really given him any run in this series.

Damn, they're letting Tatum cosplay Kobe out here. These Cavs ain't about that playoff life.

How does a professional basketball player miss a wide open point blank layup? Shameful. Garland.

Cavs just couldn’t make enough shots. I think they have it in them to maybe win another game in the series.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

Analytics lesson for Cleveland, just because you shoot league average from 3, doesn't mean that should be your default decision. That results in losing against legit contenders.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

Good effort by the Cavs, at least it was a competitive game.

i am more impressed with these kind of Celtics victories; not top heavy scoring (Tatum's 31 points in very quiet) contributions from everyone and defensively and pace (slowing it down in key times) also just on point. This is how they'll beat any of the West team in the NBA Finals (and Knicks might drag them down to that style as well)
If you can win ugly games, you can win any style.
