Yeah real clever Grant Williams, go double Horton-Tucker in the post and allow LeBron to cut uncontested to the basket. Boston with no answer early for Davis, without Robert Williams in the lineup. God Mike Breen's annoying, shut the hell up. Smart keeping the Celts in touch in the 1st term, Lakers up 8. Tatum with a nice steal and transition basket. LeBron with the license to yell at referees, other players gets tech's, just saying, Lakers up 1 at the half. Boston starts the 3rd with a run and ends the quarter up 11. Tatum going to the rim a lot, with more of a complete game. Celtics win the last term convincingly. Boston shot better from the field, the Lakers better from 3. Both teams took care of the ball, Boston with 31 points at the line and an unlikely +18 on the boards. Davis at center for the Lakers most of the game, Howard limited minutes, Jordan none. Tatum with an efficient 37 points, 11 boards, 3 steals, just 1 turnover. Smart 22 points, 6 assists, 8 boards, just 1 turnover as well. Schroder 21 points, Horford 18, Richardson 15 of the bench. Davis 31 points for the Lakers, 6 boards, 3 blocks, just 1 turnover. LeBron 23 points, 6 boards, 2 steals. Westbrook not impactful.
3. (Bos) J. Tatum, 2. (Bos) M. Smart, 1. (Lal) A. Davis.
