Warriors took the lead in the 3rd quarter then it all went Bostons way. Incredible performance by the Celtics. They needed it, now the Warriors need to steal game 4.

Yeah I was already counting my sats when they took the lead in the 3rd quarter. The Celtics were on the rebounds like nothing I've seen against the Warriors this season. Usually GS is one of the best at defending and allowing one or two shots max. The rebounds were the killer.

Anyway, I expect to see GS tie up the series on Friday. The NBA Finals have needed all 7 games to decide the champions for the last 7 years straight, and I don't expect either of these teams to run away with it. They are very evenly matched, which makes the series a lot fun.

We'll see it tomorrow and we know that this time if Warriors will be the consistent one.

Nah, they lost at TD Garden. I'm seeing that they will have a hard time again next game and they will certainly have a hard time snatching some road games. The Celtics was good in terms of adjusting and I think they could really dominate every game if they will make some good use of their sizes just like what happened earlier because the Warriors are having some trouble inside especially Green. Thompson is back though but unfortunately the others aren't in their usual performance.

Yep, Celtics is better on game 3. Still, the series hasn't ended yet and there are more to come. If game 4 is another win for Celtics then we can have that at least 70/30 chance for them to bring home the bacon.

So far so good, there's still no report of injury that I've seen and this is good for both teams. The Boston Celtics have won today and it's like a sprint game for both of them.

Everyone had contributed to their win today and Tatum really played well on this one as usual. I'm starting to believe the comment that I've seen in other sports page that Boston Celtics roster is lowkey geniuses.

Boston Celtics and Jayson Tatum had a good job they will win game 3 of the finals. They are doing great in that game their team-up is good with good teamwork. Also to Golden state warriors fight as they can but when Klay Thompson and curry are out off the floor Boston Celtics will rise their lead cause GSW doesn't have a good outside shooter when klay and curry are out in the floor. Now celtics back to thier lead in the series 2-1.

Yes, they've already won game 3.

It wasn't that bad with what the GSW has shown, it is that Celtics did better and there's still a few matches I guess if the winning streak for Celtics continues.

The Warriors are really capable on doing that and they will do that again in the next upcoming games, they have just lose in Game 1 because they slacked in the last quarter that's why the Celtics managed to win. This time around, the Warriors will defend much better even though they are more of an offensive team, they will win even if that means no rest in the whole game.

I'm just curious for Klay Thompson though, he's having a hard time playing the last 2 games.

We'll see it tomorrow and we know that this time if Warriors will be the consistent one.

It was the physicality of the Celtics that was in full display again, they are attacking the paint and less settled in the 3 point line. Warriors using a small ball wasn't effective in the 4th quarter as Celtics were in control to take the lead and dominate them. Congrats to Boston for taking the lead but this series is not over yet.

Now, it's the Celtics who are in advantage because of a good win in game 3, however, I'm seeing a different series here, looks like there's a trend like the Miami Heat series, so I think Warriors will win game 4 to even the series. It's too far from over, yes, Warriors will eventually bounce back and Curry will have a great performance.

Yeah, that really sounded good when first two games don't have that casualty report.

Tomorrow is going to be the game 3, this look that the game has been so quick and eventually we'll be on the game 4 and so on until we end up to watch the final match.

And I expect that it will remain that way, I mean the whole series would be more fun and exciting to watch if both teams are all healthy. That being said, I'm looking forward that the Celtics will give some challenges again to the Warriors because almost all of them were having a bad night and let Tatum do the work. We will see later how would the game go Cheesy

And it's going to be in Boston Garden, maybe we will see Tatum having a good night in front of his fans or he is going to choke playing his first game in the finals. We will see, Warriors though has the slight edge for me.

The term choke is not applicable to Jayson Tatum. If you are referring to his Game 1 performance, that can't be called a choke but rather he is off-night. But if he is like that for consecutive games then we can consider him having a choke performance although unlikely to happen.

The gap between Golden State Warriors and Boston Celtics is too gap or distant. I don't know what's the basis of bookies but I'm really surprised that a healthy Warriors were still given a 2.30 ML odds to win the game.

It's very unusual to see the Warriors having an odds like that during playoffs.

Just the same though for me, in the series against the Bucks, he has some off-night as well. But today, it was a different Tatum and Celtics that play. They took control from the start and never give the Warriors a chance to recover. Warriors trying to come back in the 3rd, which they usually does in the playoff, having a good 3rd quarter. But as I have said, the 4th was different they don't want to give the Warriors some chance to make a comeback and steal this game.

GSW seems weak tonight especially being in foul trouble for his some silly moves. It's so hard to beat Boston when they are in perfect shooting form and a refs on there side protecting there back.

There still a chance since they are always strong on 2nd half despite there bad start. I put to small money for GSW ML just in case they miraculously turn around this game.

GSW really got the best 3rd quarter and the 4 point play by Curry, the clutch 3 by Porter was the momentum shifter for them but they can't contain the Boston. I don't think the refs are on their side, it's just the right calls bus was too thin I guess for the refs to call it. I guess the Warriors may make a comeback this Game 4.

Currently the Celtics are up 15 near halftime.

Hey now, the Warriors just closed the gap to 10 a minute ago. I got small money Golden State!

I'm generally not an NBA fan, but I can't help but get drawn into the hype with the Warriors are in the finals. Anyway, it looks like they're going down 2-1 in the series tonight. Hopefully they're in better shape Friday after having a few more days to acclimate to jetlag. as if jetlag affects them youngsters like it does grouchy old farts like me. Lets face it, they were just out partying in Boston, which is a great city in which to party. Wink

You own the pen

The Boston Celtics won game 3 thanks to Jason Tatum's effectiveness and as the commentators said, he really makes some wise decisions tonight going to the basket without thinking of getting fouled he was just thinking about shooting the ball in the paint and the result was awesome. They beat the GSW with no problem tonight because they are a championship team and I'm also looking forward to seeing the same gameplay from the Celtics in their next game on their homecourt. By the way, Paul Pierce was enthusiastic with his old team and he was also supportive.

June 9 will be the game three between the Celtics and golden state warriors, for this game, it's a big home-court advantage by the Celtics but we can not say that they will be the winner of this game because like in game 1 golden state warriors lead from quarter to quarter 3 but in the last and final quarter, Celtics become a monster and win the match so in game 3 maybe warriors will win. Actually I am a warriors fan good luck for our bet.

Currently the Celtics are up 15 near halftime. They have came out strong but the warriors are a 2nd half team, I look for this game to get alot closer by the 4th quarter.

If Boston loses this game it will be a huge blow to their confidence.

Warriors were able to cut it to a single digit deficit with 8 points within just 30 seconds, but a couple of TOs and stops gave the Celtics the edge again and we go into halftime with Celtics up by a dozen, it's a far from over game and how the 3rd Quarter ends/the start of the 4th Quarter might be the deciding factor here again just like it happened in the first 2 games.

Yes.

That's for sure, they'll review and take notes on their loss on game 2 and we will see if they'll do the same thing as what GSW did to them.

We'll see too if they'll maximize or at least capitalize with the advantage of being on their home for the game 3. I'm loving this finals, hopefully no injuries will occur for both teams.

Yeah, I really hope so too that there would be no major injuries along the way but the way I see it, these teams aren't injury prone because they are more into playing safe rather than risking their health in a messy play. These teams both know that having an injured player could make their chances of winning smaller that's why they chose to be safe than sorry.

We will see how would the Boston Celtics adjust in the Game 3 especially that Horford and Smart had a bad night because of the Warriors defensive tactics.

Yeah, that really sounded good when first two games don't have that casualty report.

That's always been the case, this is the finals and the Celtics are going to give what they have, but Warriors has the experience in this kind of games.

And it's going to be in Boston Garden, maybe we will see Tatum having a good night in front of his fans or he is going to choke playing his first game in the finals. We will see, Warriors though has the slight edge for me.

Let's see what will happen in game 3, I guess the majority are expecting the Warriors to win, so if the Warriors will fail then maybe the discussion will favor the Celtics which is the home team and I already expect that people will stay Celtics are not a good home team. LOL.

Anyway, let's just enjoy the game tomorrow, have a good sleep, and watch the game in the morning because that's what I'm going to do.

I believe that majority believes Warriors will win because they know what they are doing much better than Celtics. Don't get me wrong, Celtics is a good team but they could just get excited about such a game.

It is basically role reversal, when in 2016 Lebron played with calm and fire at the same time, he managed to make Warriors fear him, and he played in a such way that Warriors stopped playing the great basketball they played that year, the 73-9 season Warriors, and missed scoring for like what 2-3 minutes in a row? During the same period Lebron and his co didn't score much neither, just 3 points by Kyrie, but Lebron had that calm experience he needed. Same with Warriors against Celtics this year.

We'll see it tomorrow and we know that this time if Warriors will be the consistent one.

I'm not concerned about Thompson to be honest because he is doing great on defense, yes, his shooting is not good, he is struggling but as long as he continues building his confidence, he will surely find his rhythm in a game. We are now in game 3, a different atmosphere for the Warriors, so it's a challenge for them if they can beat the Celtics on the road.

If that rhythm of him comes.

Then for sure that it's like an unstoppable shooting for him, we all knew it and it's not just going to be Steph that the Celtics should be aware of.

But let's see if the home court advantage will give the Celtics that warcry that shall make them better than their play on game 2.
