Celtics jump on Cavaliers from opening tip and never look back winning 103-86
Celtics jump out to a 22-4 lead against the Cavaliers on their way to leading 28-10 after one behind Avery Bradley's 2-3 from 3 and eight points. Andrew Bynum was a metaphor for Cleveland's season in the quarter finishing 0-4 including a miserable seven foot left handed jump hook that was not only short but right of the rim which led to a Jordan Crawford to Jeff Green alley oop.
After this miscue Mike Brown sat Bynum for the rest of the half as The C's led 55-39 behind 18 from Jeff Green.
Cavaliers continued their awfulness in the third quarter falling behind the Celtics 79-58. Jeff Green, building on his stellar performance against Memphis, had 27 after 3.
Celts cruised the rest of the way. Final Score: Boston 103 Cleveland 86
Game notes:
Jeff Green finished with 31 and five rebounds.
Avery Bradley had a great game shooting 9-11 including 3-4 from distance: 21 points
Jordan Crawford showing his non-scoring abilities with a triple double. 11 points 11 rebounds and 10 assists.
Dion Waiters, who is on the trading block, had 21 and 6 assists for Cleveland
Cavs 1-9 on the road for the season.
