Tuesday night edition of the pod as the Boston Celtics roar back in the second half to take it

0:08.1

107 94 over the Cavaliers and the Bron James came out firing

0:13.5

42 points 12 assists did have six turnovers though Cleveland's defense was actually pretty decent throughout most of the first half and then in the second half

0:23.1

The Cavaliers just couldn't score. They only put up 39 points

0:27.0

94 points for Cleveland and that Cavaliers offense that so struggled in the first round and so

0:34.0

destroyed Toronto in the second round has regressed once again and Boston of course has had a very big part in causing that

0:42.6

For sure

0:43.3

I thought a place to start with this game would be to talk about

1:33.2

He got to the room a couple times late when the outcome was essentially decided and they were kind of in no three's

1:40.0

Defense but taking a look at his shot chart here that 16 of 29 from the field 11 3 point attempts

1:46.9

He ended up seven of eight at the rim, but again at some of those were late and he really was not getting into the paint

1:54.4

forcing help setting up others and then when he did try to set up others

1:59.2

Anyone else except for Kevin Love and Kyle Corver just couldn't do anything in this game for Cleveland
