| Where Failing to Close Out Road Games Happens | |
77 It happened again. I’m virtually lost for words. This was a defensive matchup in which the teams were toe-to-toe all game long, but down the stretch, Cleveland made big plays while the Celtics did not. It’s that simple. While the Cavaliers certainly deserve credit for their defensive intensity, the Celtics did not capitalize on their opportunities, and are now 0-5 in the postseason on the road. The evened series (2-2) will shift back to Boston for Game 5 on Wednesday night, where the C’s will have a chance to regain the series lead. Let’s hope LeBron James doesn’t officially unleash his venom and steal the wrong game from the Celtics at the wrong time.
