If you told me the Celtics would limit Steph Curry to 16 points on 22 shots and 0/9 on three pointers, I’d feel pretty good about their chances to win the pivotal, momentous, crucial, pick-an-adjective game 5. But Andrew Wiggins scored 26 points with 13 rebounds, Klay Thompson added 21, and Gary Payton II scored 15 points on 6/8 shooting, as the Warriors came away with the 104-94 win.
Tatum scored 27 with 10 rebounds and Boston was in control of the game after a great third quarter, but they couldn’t continue it in the fourth, and the Warriors escaped with a 10 point victory.
