00:00And they can score the ball.
00:02Daniel Tice and Tristan Thompson step to the center circle.
00:06The tip is run by the Celtics and we are underway.
00:09...that they had two years ago and they're getting close to it already.
00:14Three by Walker is true.
00:15No more Marcus Morris.
00:17No more Aaron Bain.
00:19Walker, six to shoot.
00:21Pedals to the paint, ten footer.
00:23It's simple basketball.
00:26Three straight games at 32 plus points.
00:29Sexton from the foul up.
00:30He catches in.
00:31Sexton!
00:33Cavs rebounding, checked in, tenth in terms of percentage.
00:36Boston 24th.
00:37Cavs hope for an advantage on that glass as Hayward gets into the act.
00:42Tristan Thompson in his ninth season out of Texas.
00:44Smart alley-oops for Tice.
00:47Plunked the floor.
00:48They didn't.
00:48As soon as he turned his back, somebody was there.
00:51That's what you have to be very aware of.
00:53Larry Nance, deep in the run.
00:55Has checked into the ballgame.
00:5726-year-old rookie out of Radford.
00:59Up to Kemba.
01:00Kemba deals to Hayward in the corner.
01:02Fakes a three.
01:03Goes baseline five.
01:04Footer is true.
01:07Hayward now.
01:09Celtics lead by five.
01:11Stunner steps down the lane.
01:13Too easy.
01:13Too easy.
01:14So their defense is what they're hanging their head on so far.
01:17Walker contested three.
01:19That's perfect.
01:20Here's Clarkson.
01:22Stunner steps to the top of the key.
01:24Cavs trail by eight.
01:24Two and a half to go first quarter.
01:27Love now.
01:28Open for a three.
01:29Love's first triple.
01:30We mentioned five apiece into the last two contested.
01:34Kevin Love.
01:35Hayward down the left alley.
01:36Stops banks and scores.
01:37Good body control by Gordon Hayward, who's a perfect four of four for ten points.
01:42But again, they're running their plays.
01:44They're running execution of their plays.
01:47Nance in the rim.
01:48Here's Williams.
01:53Backdoor pass to Hayward.
01:54Hayward gets loose again.
01:57When being down by only seven points, shooting like that, not bad.
02:00That means your defense is doing something.
02:02But your one-on-one defense is really the problem here.
02:06Player in your locker room in terms of being a great teammate and a great worker.
02:10Hayward's at the basket.
02:11Oh, my.
02:12Boy, he is having a career day.
02:16He says the rookie out of Purdue, Carson Edwards.
02:18Speaking about putting on the show, boy, did he do so in the preseason game between these teams on the score.
02:24Smart fires a three and scores.
02:28Shot clock down to six.
02:30Love works on Smart.
02:31Lob to the rim.
02:32Good pass.
02:32Finds dance.
02:33You see, that's what you have to do.
02:34He introduced himself to this Cavalier crowd during the preseason.
02:40And as mentioned, 26 points as Tatum knocks down a baseline jumper.
02:43Eight of 11 when Carson Edwards in the third quarter.
02:46Clarkson now.
02:49Clarkson has 17 or more points.
02:51Eight of his last four games.
02:52A circus shot up.
02:54And it goes.
02:54And Clarkson has a chance for the three-point play.
02:57As a player, I'm going to play the game the right way.
03:00He respects that.
03:01You'll get a lot of playing time if you play the game the right way.
03:04Amazing.
03:05Nobody ever thought that would happen.
03:06You'd have said that before this season, most people would say, well, the Clippers got off to a sluggish start, apparently.
03:10As Garland with a bank shot.
03:12He knocks it down.
03:13Shot 52% here.
03:14Two nights ago.
03:15The Celtics are up at 54% in this first half.
03:19Sexton fires a three.
03:20He knocks it down.
03:21Carlson, Garland, Clarkson, Knight, and Sexton are on the floor.
03:25Garland baseline missed the shot.
03:26Thompson in the bank.
03:27What's it in?
03:28I'll tell you, double-team.
03:30He's a one-man wrecking for tonight.
03:32Has been Tristan Thompson.
03:33This is season number nine.
03:35Hayward's a perfect 7 of 7, bothered by Knight.
03:37Gets to the faint.
03:38He's 8 of 8.
03:40Now for Hayward.
03:42Played, of course, for Brad Stevens in his collegiate days.
03:45He's a sextant of the 15-footer.
03:47Yes, they're going to play the high-picking role like that.
03:50Since he's starting to help the Cavaneers out now, the one-and-out opportunities they're taking advantage of.
03:55Yeah, the big reason why the Cavs are down.
03:57Only four.
03:57Now down only two.
03:59As Clarkson banks it in.
04:00He picks up one, four in a row.
04:01Clarkson off of Thompson's screen goes to work.
04:06It's cut off by Williams at the baseline.
04:07Doesn't matter.
04:08He switches to the left hand.
04:09Clarkson with a dance to the hoop.
04:13Clarkson has 10 points.
04:15He's the high Cavalier.
04:16Smart fires a three.
04:17Five-point game.
04:19Walker off to Hayward.
04:20He's a perfect 8 of 8.
04:22It's around.
04:23Knight pulls up 15-footer.
04:24Well, they're making him the all-star tonight.
04:26I mean, Ojale at 6-6.
04:29Clarkson at 6-5.
04:30The jump.
04:31Ojale wins the tip.
04:32Outlet to Tatum.
04:33That was a set play.
04:35Tatum lays it in.
04:37I have nine straight shots without him feeling me a couple times on the defensive end of the floor.
04:43The teams start the second half the way they started the game.
04:45Thompson flipped it up and in.
04:48Sexton can't get that to go.
04:49Walker rebounds.
04:52Kemba Lobsler to the rim.
04:53Hayward lays it in.
04:54Man.
04:56Numbers dipped last year in his second campaign.
04:58Sexton runs over Kemba Walker.
05:00Walker gets caught for a block.
05:02Count the basket and Sexton has a chance for the three-point play.
05:06The one thing the Sexton's are doing, they're staying in front of the Cavs.
05:10Not letting them have easy drives to the basket.
05:13Hayward gets a friendly roll.
05:16And, to me, they're just not aggressive enough to get those kind of calls.
05:21Walker steps into a three.
05:22Love takes a lot of pass at the bank.
05:29He converts.
05:30Love checks in second in the NBA in rebounds per game at over 15 a contest.
05:35Walker in the three.
05:36Catch and shoot.
05:38Under four to go in the third quarter.
05:42Osnab.
05:43He'll launch.
05:44His first five shots tonight.
05:48Tatum step-back jumper.
05:50Rebounded by Clarkson.
05:52Long lead pass to Love.
05:53Makes the catch at the basket.
05:54Puts it in.
05:55Every time they need a basket.
05:58Carson Edwards, the rookie at a Purdue, checks in.
06:00Hayward to the paint again.
06:03He scores.
06:03Soft touch.
06:04Had that type of offense at night.
06:06Nance has a look at a three.
06:09Hay knocks it down.
06:10Looking very confident with that three.
06:12Do a better job of getting within ten points quickly.
06:17Sexton finds night in the corner for three.
06:20Got it.
06:20Three!
06:23Sexton now has 16 points.
06:24Four of 12 from the field.
06:25A perfect seven of seven from the line.
06:27Hayward Alley.
06:28Oops.
06:28One for Williams.
06:30Clarkson.
06:32Locked by Wanamaker.
06:33Beers on the Thompson screen.
06:35Good feet to Nance in the corner.
06:36He knocks it down.
06:38Larry Nance is a perfect three of three from deep.
06:41Fifty-three points a game in the tournament.
06:45Whoa!
06:45Williams down the lane.
06:47Hammers home a two-handed.
06:48Too easy.
06:50Osmond, Nance, Clarkson, Knight, and Delavadova
06:53make up the Cavalier five.
06:54Knight from three.
06:55Yes.
06:56Starting to get a field.
06:58Cavs within four.
07:01Hayward has 30 points tonight.
07:03Now 32.
07:07Hayward quick spin on Knight.
07:10Hayward's just too big.
07:16Tatum now gets a half-step on Offen to the basket.
07:19He lays it in.
07:19Tatum now has 16.
07:21Edwards zigzags.
07:22Now curls in the corner and resets.
07:26Long three.
07:27He can shoot it now.
07:30Nice.
07:31Looks to drive on Love.
07:32Got a half-step to the basket.
07:33Nice defense by Delavadova.
07:35Tice thought he got fouled.
07:36Down it goes to Osmond.
07:37Osmond in on Wanamaker.
07:38Around him he goes.
07:40Cavs make another run.
07:42Tatum.
07:43Blocked by Delavadova.
07:45Whirls to the thing.
07:46Pretty move.
07:50Southies have squatted 11 shots here tonight as Osmond pulls up free on the way.
07:55He's got it.
07:57Batted by Tice.
07:58Grabbed by Wanamaker and off he goes.
08:00Wanamaker down the lane.
08:02Always have somebody waiting to take a shot.
08:07Hayward for three.
08:08That's only his fifth shot from outside.
08:11Get him by Garda by Tristan Thompson.
08:15Pulls up.
08:17He's having his fight back.
08:19He just don't have enough to get over the hump.
08:21Love spins baseline.
08:23Good contest by Smart.
08:24Shakes his head.
08:25He says sometimes you just haven't dipped your cap.
08:27One board shy for Love of a double-double.
08:29Love gave sex.
08:30And the ball said go.
08:31As he was guarded by Tice.
08:32Off it goes to Osmond for three.
08:34Jenny.
08:35Find the mark.
08:37Tatum has re-entered for the Celtics.
08:40Love gets doubled.
08:43Passes out of it.
08:44Thompson spins around.
08:45Tice to the basket.
08:48He had to stop the penetration.
08:50And then go guard the guy into the back.
08:52Ball's lobbed to Love.
08:53His floater.
08:54No.
08:54Thompson put back is good.
08:56Three-point game.
08:58Tatum in on Love.
08:59Number zero with wine and gold.
09:01Turns back number zero.
09:02Bringing in White.
09:04Walker contested three.
09:05Oh, boy.
09:10Garland finds Thompson top of the key.
09:12Wheels one to Sexton.
09:14No fire a three.
09:14Hey!
09:15Knocks it down.
09:16Very good defensive effort by the team.
09:20Walker launches a three.
09:21Missed it.
09:22Rebounded by Hayward.
09:23He puts it up and in.
09:25And Gordon Hayward has 39 now on the night.
09:28The Cavs battle back.
09:29Get within three with under a minute remaining.
