On May 12, in the eastern semi-final of the NBA playoffs, the Celtics defeated the Cavaliers away, leading 2-1 in the series, and regaining the home court advantage.The whole Celtic team performed well in this game. Under the leadership of Tatum, Jay Brown and Holliday, they led by 9 points in the first half and expanded their advantage in the second half. Even though the Cavaliers played a wave of 10-4 to narrow the gap in the last quarter, the Celtics stabilized the situation and successfully won the victory.
Celtic withstood the pressure in the away game. When Mitchell, the core of the Cavaliers, scored six three-point shots and scored 23 points in the half, Tatum and Jay Brown stood out and withstood the impact of their opponents.In the third quarter, the Celtics played 8-0 within two minutes, directly extending the difference to 17 points. Even though White's outside touch was ordinary, the Celtics' inside impact was still strong.
In the previous two games, the Celtics won 1 and lost 1 at home. It is very dangerous for the Celtics to let the Cavaliers win at their own home.Fortunately, when they come to the G3 away game, they win, so that they can win the home court advantage of the series again. In the next G4, their mentality will be better, because if they win, 3-1 will take the absolute initiative.Even if the game is lost, there will be a home court advantage in the case of 2-2, so from this point we can see how crucial it is for Celtic to win the G3 series.
Yang Yi said that it is good for Celtics to meet some difficulties in the playoffs, not to sweep 4-0 in every round, and then become a big favorite after entering the finals. The pressure on the players is great and it is not easy to play well.In this way, every round will encounter some frustrations, but they will always be the ones who advance. There is no opponent in the east, and the players will have a better mentality and play better in the finals.
Obviously, Yang Yi is optimistic about this year's Celtics. He believes that there is no suspense in the east, he will win the championship in the eastern part of the playoffs, and he will be in a good situation after entering the finals.Especially when the Suns, Clippers and other strong teams were out prematurely, and the Nuggets encountered great resistance, the Celtics with stable performance was indeed favored by more people.
The next series of G4 will still be held in Cleveland Cavaliers' home court. If Celtic wins, they will win the match point of the series. Therefore, for Cavaliers, it is a battle against each other. We look forward to the players of the two teams playing at that time.
