The Cavs were down 2-0 and had to win Game 3. The Celtics had a huge grip on the series and were looking to take a 3-0 lead over Cleveland as they seek a trip to the NBA Finals. Lebron knew he had to make a statement in Cleveland and take Game 3. He did just that, scoring a game high 27 points and 12 assists. James helped bring balance to the Cavs' offense that was lacking in the first two games. Cleveland's starting 5 all scored in double figures as the Cavs defeat the Celtics 116-86. Jayson Tatum scored a team high 18 points for the Celtics in the loss. Boston looked flat in their offensive and defensive schemes. I'm sure Brad Stevens will have his young Celtics ready to try and take a commanding 3-1 lead in the series. Nevertheless, the Cavs have made it a series down 2-1 to the Celtics and look to take another home game in Game 4 on Monday. (Click the photo above for highlights!)
