Cs in Portland-at last, Road Game Five.

As Starters will Tatum and Hayward...thrive?

Kylie’s back, Kyrie, Cs’ first score!

Tatum! Horford! Blazers running the floor.

Blazers, 8-0 run. Hayward! No headband, Baynes!

Straight down the middle, into Cs, Blazers, gains.

Morris ($$)! Smart, energy! Welcome back, Kyrie! 

Aha!TATUM FOR THREE! TATUM FOR THREE!

Horford, block! Cs, 7-0 run! Cs within 5 start Q2.

Cs shooting 46% (vs 50). Tatum more relaxed, too.

Active Rozier! D! Old Pal Turner, pull up J.

Tatum! Hard to the hoop like we expect him to play!

Rozier! Blazers jacking up, not missing, threes.

Blazers, 15-2 run. Kyrie to Baynes! Starting Cs ;(

Kyrie, foul 2. Blazers, 26-6 run. Cs, 5 minutes, no FG.

Horford, block! Tatum! Cs from within 2...19 start Q3.

Umm, the rim is off-kilter, been like that all night?

Noticed by a Blazer. It’s our side that wasn’t right!

Kyrie, D! Kyrie playing alone. KYRIE FOR THREE! 

Kyrie, push...Horford! HAYWARD FOR THREE! 

Horford, front rim...then block(s).TATUM FOR THREE!

Smart, smart D! Tatum, moving! TATUM FOR THREE!

AT. LAST. TATUM FOR THREE! TATUM FOR THREE!

TATUM, 12-0 run ;) Horford! KYRIE FOR THREE!

Ugh, McCollum, Lillard arrived. Ball movement, Cs!

Smart, smart ➡️ Horford! SETH Curry shooting threes.

Cs got within 5, Cs within 13 end Q3.

Morris! MORRIS FOR THREE! BROWN FOR THREE!

THEIS IN! Brown (he’s here)! ROZIER FOR THREE!

Cs, 11-0 run! Cs, D! MORRIS FOR THREE! 

THEIS!

NICE!

KYRIE FOR THREE! Horford, 1 of 2 FTs.

We covered Lillard, McCollum...Aminu threes?

Cs, desperation mode with three minutes to go-

Cs within 6. Sigh. 1 and 4 trip, not our best show.

Tatum, Season high. Here’s my thought:

Hayward shouldn’t start, tho hard he has fought.

No rhythm yet, erratic around the hoop.

Rozier, Smart start well, better for our Group.

CELTICS HOORAH!
