The Boston Celtics have been surprisingly good in the First round series against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Although the Cavaliers are up 2-0 in the series, there are still some close games and close matchups. The talent of the Cavaliers won’t LOSE to this Celtics team.
Either way, the Boston Celtics could have stole homecourt in game 2, but according to Evan Turner, the officiating was a big factor:
“I mean, you know, not to knock on [LeBron and Kyrie],” Turner told reporters in Cleveland after Game 2. “They are great players, but Avery [Bradley] is a known defender…To call a foul [when Irving is shooting] behind the backboard in that type of possession, it should never be called. It wasn’t a playable shot. It wasn’t a makeable shot.
“That was the craziest call, and then at the end of the game, you call a travel on the ground [when] that was the same [type of defense Bradley was playing] the whole time? That was the only tough part about today. That didn’t make any sense.”
Well according to the video:
