Despite 3rd quarter hiccup, C’s dominate Warriors with defensive effort

17, 15 and 19.

Those are the point totals the Boston Celtics gave up on Wednesday night in the first, second and fourth quarters.

The C’s have consistently played well against the Golden State Warriors the last several seasons, bringing their best effort for one of the NBA’s top dynasties of all time. This game was all that intensity turned up to another level. Boston held the Warriors to a dismal 29% shooting from the field in the first half, 4-24 shooting from deep, forced eight turnovers and held a 13-point lead at the break.
