Tough loss for the Cavs.
Garland didn't get to the FT line in this game against the Celtics. I wonder how he feels about that.

Boston has always been such a good team, but the playoffs has always been a question mark for them. I also like the Cavs with Mitchell and Garland, they’re lit to watch 💯❤️❤️🏀

Just another time I beg that the NBA uploads these videos in better than 360p…
Celtics fan here: My takeaway from this game is Donovan Mitchell is ridiculous
All five starters scored in double figures. Good win for the Celtics.
Ten point advantage for the Celtics on the boards, as they outrebounded the Cavs 45-35. That was the difference in the game.
Hard fought win. The Cavs were shooting lights out for most of the game but we kept chugging along and we never took our foot off the gas in the 4th. Now let’s do it again Thursday!
D mitch needs to go
Last year, we would’ve lost this game. LFG🍀🍀
These are the types of wins that give me hope but gotta see it against better teams than Cavs who are only very slightly above being a MID TIER team
11-0 at home
Good game CELTICS ☘️
The tween – snatch spyda put on j brown was so nasty 🤢 😂💪🏾 big little guards stand up #6’1andunder
Prozingus was absolutely stinking it up in the first half so was everyone else in the first quarter except for Jaylen brown what a way to bounce back and the second quarter and half the resilience and perseverance was something to watch this game by the Celtics and the Cavs as well who were on a night of a back to back great win and game by both teams salute Cavs have my respect for hanging in there the way they did hitting absolutely crazy tough shot after tough shot
poor video quality
Jaylen brown definitely had the better overal game over Tatum but Tatum had the better finisher
This game was lost when Bickerstaff put Okoro in the game. I don't know what else they need to see to know that guy is not an NBA player, at least today's NBA. He simply can't shoot. He's had 4 years now. You can't have someone who misses 8 out of 10 uncontested corner 3's. They're playing 4 on 5 on offense when he's out there. It's simply amazing to me how a good athlete like him can't develop a simple jump shot, but it's obvious to everyone but JB, evidently. They'll never win a playoff series with Okoro on the floor.
D white is so underrated
Yes we are tied with the twolves who lost last night yes reclaiming that top spot in the league please lose again t wolves and win again Celtics 😂
Look at Jalen brown saying ..(your beneath me) Its funny how he never does that with the ORLANDO MAGIC! lolz
3:26 no reason to play that far behind the screener. Better option aggressively attacking the switch forcing a trap making Donovan get rid of the ball then retreat by to your assigned defender. Hanging out at the free throw line afraid of getting beat of the dribble doesn’t help the team. Not fast enough to close 4 feet gap to challenge the quick pull up three ball😂
4:21 same thing again 😂 if the defensive center see the pick head of Time he could have blocked the ball handler who didn’t have enough space using side court as protection forcing Garland back to mid court. Below you see Al already cheering to provide help defensively. Celtics centers playing flat footed, they are a poor pick and roll defensive team hence why the got scorched by Indiana. Very poor pick n roll defense 4:28 look at the difference with Cleveland pick and Roll defense. Jared the center attacks the ball handler up on his toes read to challenge a quick pull up 3 pointer..yes Jalen scored but it was a more difficult shot. Baseline you see the other two Cleveland ready to rotate with help defense. Since the season began Celtics have had difficulty maintaining leads even after going up double digits. They won’t win a chimp if thy don’t work on pick n Roll defense.
5:00🫣😂who is Kristaps defending 😓😓😓😓
ORLANDO will hold the CelChicks to under 100 and defeat them at home just like they did to the CAVS!
Why is the NBA uploading 360p videos?
Some of the most boring announcers I've heard in a while!!🥱
Si white ba yung wala ng buhok?
Lets go lolo lebron!😅
Cavs gave it a good show but the forth quarter they couldn’t hold on in Boston. Good matchup though!
18🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🏆
Max struss not scoring,need emoni Bates and mobley brother to play.
Cavs get another shot to win against the Celtics later this week…play better next game Cavs 💯😤
Trash chingus pingus
Boston got that win over Cleveland!!!! As an Orlando fan, I can’t wait to face Boston this Friday in Boston. And I can’t say we are going to beat them. I can’t expect that. Boston is a very scary team!!!! I have a lot of respect for them
Well, that was gritty. Thank goodness for Brown, really kept them in the game through some very ugly basketball. Pretty much everyone on the C's had an extended stretch of terrible basketball, and then redeemed it with hustle plays and D. Cavs looked unstoppable for 3 quarters, feel like they moved away from Garland late and I'm really glad they did.
Only problem for the Celtic ,kornet is so tall I could not see,blocking or hard depenced is so soft
Goes to show Cavz still not there among the elite teams in the east
These highlights made me think Donavan had 50
they need to trade donavan mitchell. they can do better without him.
they need to get his value rn in a trade
i wish the cavs try as hard vs the sixers, bucks and miami the way they do the celtics.
First quarter was ugly if you're a Celtics fan, from then on out it felt like a playoff matchup.
