WATCH: Boston Celtics Roster Beats Locker Room Heat in the Best Possible Way
Follow Us
The Boston Celtics beat the Toronto Raptors 4-3 in the conference semi-final. But something worth reporting remained largely unnoticed. The Celtics lost the third quarter in all those seven games that they played. This must be a worrying factor for the team because it again repeated against the Miami Heat.
Every game matters when it is about the post-season. In Game 2, the Celtics had a 13 point lead after the first half. Then they lost the third quarter 17-37, and eventually, the game. This particular loss hit the team motivation hard as reports of yelling from the locker room surfaced after the game.
The Boston Celtics have found their way out of the game tension!

It is obvious for a team to get mad over letting important games slip away. This grunting and yelling become part of team discussion when they ponder over the performance to figure out the issues. So there is nothing sensational about Marcus Smart being hot-headed on the day of the loss.
Nevertheless, the unit found its way to keep the spirits high as they turned to the poolside in the Orlando Bubble. Point guard Marcus Smart and center Enes Kanter were seen hustling to push each other into the pool while a teammate captured the circus. In the end, Marcus won the tussle as Kanter found himself inside the pool.

Youngsters Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are surely at the helm of the roster with their great offense. But Kemba Walker’s consistency, Marcus Smart’s perimeter defense, and Enes Kanter’s athleticism also contribute big time for the Boston based team. One good news for them is that forward player Gordon Hayward is back in the roster and has played a couple of games.
They are now the top-seeded eastern conference team that is now left in the contention of the title. The fight with an equally aggressive Miami Heat is proving tough for them, but it seems like they’re finally working on their weaknesses. The two teams will next play each other on September 23.
