Boston Celtics vs Golden State warriors
the winner of game one in the finals is the Boston Celtics, they were able to overturn a 10-point plus gap and end the game with a 10-plus point gap, no less at the Golden state warriors stadium. Impressive.
important highlights
The golden state relied too heavily on Steph curry, this is why they lost the game, the Celtics are more of a team with many people putting up 3 pointers.
Curry put up 6 threes in the first quarter, which is a Nba finals record. the guy is amazing but I knew watching the game the Warriors have a deficiency
Quater 2
In the second quarter the Celtics came out ahead and Tatum didn't put up any numbers ut instead the entire team did a solid job, Steph was missing a lot of shots and due to having 3 fouls already was aggressive, what then is he is benched, Klay put up some numbers, Iguodala did do a fine 3 but there is no one.
the main point is basketball is a team sport, Steph is the best 3-point shooter, but he isn't going to do all the other blocking or necessary things to dominate a game and push his team.
Quater 3
as if what I said watching quarter 2 was an indictment of their GSW playing they went and smash quarter 3 ending the quarter 102. better game plan maybe. I thought, yeah they could win this . is this lead keeps chugging along. Steph shot a couple of 3’s, Tatum missed a lot of shots and the entire Celtics look ready to accept their loss,
Quater 4
Holy shit! how did this go so bad, I think the GSW went 5 minutes without getting a single point , what the hell. there was some back and forth but the Celtics keep getting back to back 3 closing the gap to 5 points. if the gap is larger than 5, you have breathing room. I could see when the Celtics , closing the point gap, the warriors started panicking, trying to rush to get more points taking bad shots, leading to rapid turnovers which gave the Celtics space to get in good shooting positions
