Boston Celtics crush the Cleveland Cavaliers 96-83

While not necessarily the case in fact, for many, the heart and soul of the 2018 Eastern Conference Finals between the Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers would be decided in Game Five.

For Boston, home court advantage has been the deciding factor, with the team going nine wins and zero losses on their home court.
Would it be enough to keep control of the series?

The thought of going down 3-2 to the Cavaliers with Game Six set to take place in Cleveland not being a pleasant one, an extra sense of urgency permeated the building, and was evident in how both teams approached the game from the earliest moments.
