The Boston Celtics picked up their 5th win in a row after defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers on the road, 119-113 on Tuesday night. Gordon Hayward put on a show scoring a game-high 39 points on the night, Kemba Walker also poured in with 25 and Jayson Tatum put in 18. For the Cavaliers, they were led by Collin Sexton who scored 21, while Tristan Thompson finished with 19 points and 13 rebounds. The Cavaliers fall to 2-5, as the Celtics move to 5-1 as they tie for first place in the Eastern Conference.

WOW……..Gordon Hayward!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was an awesome game by him! He couldn’t be stopped and there was not one person on the Cavaliers that could guard him! He caught fire early and never looked back, I’m pretty sure he missed like 3 or 4 shots the whole game, it was great!

The Celtics are 5-1 now and this is a really good start for them so far. They have beat tough teams like the Bucks and the Raptors, and they could be an underdog in the East. Tonight it might’ve been close, but I knew from the start of the game that the Celtics were going to win. Brad Stevens seemed to give the bench players a lot more minutes tonight, hoping that they will get a flow going together and knowing that they were probably destined to win the game.

Kemba had another nice game, but I still don’t understand how Giannis won Player of the Week and Kemba didn’t, but oh well whatever. Jayson Tatum played smoothly, he didn’t take a whole lot of shots, but he looked good out there for the Celtics. Carsen Edwards, with his new haircut, poured in 13 points. Edwards played a really good game last time in Cleveland, so I guess he didn’t want. to dominate once again ;).

I honestly still think the Cavaliers are really bad, they need to make some trades or try and go out and sign a free agent in the summer. Ever since Lebron left, they have been a bunch of nobodies. Kevin Love should ask for a trade, because I wouldn’t want to play there. They played hard against Boston, but I honestly thought if the Celtics wanted to, they could’ve ran up the score. The Cavaliers might see a lot of rebuilding in the next few years.

The Celtics next game is in Charlotte vs the Hornets on Thursday. I expect this game to be a good one, because Kemba is returning back to Charlotte for the first time, so I’m sure. he might be emotional and that the crowd will be getting into that game. This game will remind me of Al Horford’s first game back in Atlanta, when Isaiah Thomas hit the game winner.

Maybe we will see the same in Charlotte??

One last thing

Al Horford and the Sixers lost the other night, Kyrie Irving and the Nets are 3-4. Im hoping we will see more of this losing by them 😉

Go Celtics!
