Dean Wade gets the start again. Aggressive Mobley alert!

I eye roll on all pull-up LeVert threes and he just keeps hitting them anyway. He's a flamethrower right now

refs try not to blow the whistle. difficulty impossible

You should enjoy the luxury of being able to do that, Garland can't and is out yet again.

Lol kidding! Won't be watching this one but I'll go to B dubs the next time they play the Celtics because its on ESPN.

LeVert has been really good on the offensive end tonight. Celts are crowding the middle of the floor on Mitchell so he has to give it up and they are not doing the same for LeVert so he's been able to get to the rim and dish it out well. He's getting targeted on defense, but tbf its Tatum and Brown who are currently on a tear. The help defenders haven't been great getting to him in time

LeVert having the game of his life wtf. Two offensive rebounds in a row plus a pull up three to go ahead

This feels like playoff basketball in October.

This game has been insane. Caris LeVert with the takeover. They mentioned his 51 point game against Boston two years ago, but this has to be his best game ever

Mitchell and LeVert go off for 41, looks like I missed a good one, gonna have to YouTube some highlights.

Really fun game. With Okoro in his funk we had no ody to guard Tatum really, but Tatum got tired. LeVert seemed to get stronger as the game went on.

You can definitely credit exhaustion, but Wade was playing him well in the fourth and OT. Tatum and Brown were cooking whoever we through at them in the first three though.

Side note: I love the Cedi/Wade swaps for offense or defense down the stretch.

Pretty impressive feat accomplished by LeVert & Michell both scoring over 40 as teammates. Only been done 15 times in NBA history (11 of which happened in the regular season).

Dang, I figured the Kyrie and LeBron duo would be on that list for sure!

They are, or should be. Game 5 of the 2016 finals both had 41

Yup, right you are. I think it happened more than just that one time too.

Edit: nope just the once. LBJ came close with Mo, Love, and Jeff Green but on all 3 occasions they barely missed matching his 40. There was one other instance with Kyrie where LeBron just barely missed 40.

At any rate I think that link is about 10 years outdated.

yep, just goes to show the grass isn't always greener, Celtics fans are upset that Smart can't shoot, Brown can barely dribble, and Tatum runs out of gas to close games.

Sometimes all you have to do is come off a screen and make your J's white the opposing big is in no man's land, albeit you need that guy who can hit the corner 3 and keep help out of the paint.

imagine how much things change if LeVert is more than just a guy .... (and doesn't break something)

Him, Love & Rubio can be a destructive bench force. We can see if he’s content to play the role for the Cavs that Sexton wasn’t.

I’m less than confident in him staying healthy, being a driver, playing all these minutes, etc. but as a Jamal Crawford on the win type secondary facilitator who can step in for chunks of games. Sure.
