Great win. The series is not over yet, however L James/K Love bring their A game, and still fall well short. This team is fearless. My thoughts exactly, maybe their role players play better in Cleveland, but I am not sure how much more they can realistically expect from LeBron and Love. Yet we still win by 13. And looking at the box score none of our guys did anything over their heads, we can certainly duplicate our productivity tonight. If they couldn't win tonight, not sure how they beat us in Boston, unless LeBron goes for 60. We won big, even with pedestrian stats from Tatum and Horford! Imagine when they go off and help carry this team. |

From the Boston Globe:
Here is how Marcus Morris described the scene from the second-half run in Game 2:
“The coaches continued to tell us, ‘Wear them down, wear them down.’ And in the third quarter, we just jumped on them.”
I think this is the key to why we'll win this thing. LeBron is obviously tired and no one else on his team can carry them. He can't do it for 48 minutes anymore. To quote Tommy, we need to RUN, RUN, RUN! Run them into the ground. Push that ball every single time we can, even if we don't get a quick score, they have to run to get back. It's like body blows in boxing. Eventually they have their effect. Clearly Brad sees this and he's exhorting the guys to wear them down.

They got tired down the stretch. |

James was gassed, and Rozier made the jam. |

James must have been tired, but also Rozier is faster than him. Lebron tried to time it so he could pin the ball off the glass. But he couldn't get to the spot before Rozier released the ball.
That was a great poster shot for Rozier.
