Cavaliers head back to Cleveland tied 2-2
The Cleveland Cavaliers rolled past the Boston Celtics in Game 3, but Game 4 presented a different challenge.
The Cavaliers played the Celtics straight up for three quarters but couldn’t close the deal in the final period.
It looked like Cleveland was tired or simply got lazy as Boston outhusted them for every loose ball.
Cleveland had no answer defensively for point guard Rajon Rondo, who finished with 29 points, 18 rebounds and 13 assists.
Despite the loss, the Cavaliers head back to Cleveland for Game 5 with home court advantage still intact.
