Your One Source For Everything Celtics
The Celtics coming off a good win against the Raptors and come to Cleveland hoping to tack on another win. Three Celtics stepped up with double-doubles, Kevin Garnett with 11 points and 10 rebounds, Rondo with 23 points and 12 assists, and Glen Davis with 17 points and 11 rebounds. The Celtics defense shined this game with 8 blocked shots, 3 by Paul Pierce. Glen Davis had a big game on the defensive end grabbing 11 rebounds and one blocked shot. They finished the game 106-87 getting another win on the road.The Cav's head coach Byron Scott was quoted saying, I think in the second quarter, they decided to play a little bit. They decided to come out and be a little bit more aggressive on both ends of the floor. It's almost like that boxing match where you get punched in the face and you want to see how you are going to react. I thought we staggered, but we never really threw a punch back and I thought that was pretty much the difference
.
The new Cavs aren't what they used to be without Lebron, but everyone know that I just didn't think they'd be that bad. They have good players like Mo Williams, J.J. Hickson, and Joey Graham, but they don't have the chemistry nor the leadership that the Celtics have. Good easy win for the Celtics, but it's time to regroup tomorrow for the Trail Blazers.
