NBA Playoffs 2018 Conference Finals Live: Cleveland Cavaliers vs Boston Celtics - Game 5 Live Score

FINAL: Boston Celtics win 96-83. They lead the series 3-2!
Updated: 24 May 2018 08:57 IST - Published: 24 May 2018 06:28 IST
...
LeBron became LeTired by the end of the 2nd quarter, and he was lifeless, lackluster and haphazard for the most part on defense. The Celtics, buoyed by their home crowd, suffocated the Cavs with two halves of amazing defensive basketball conceding 42 and 41 points. They capitalized on their early 32-19 lead and preserved it for the rest of the game.
The Celtics will fight for a chance to reach in the NBA Finals in just 6 games at the Quicken Loans Arena on Saturday morning by IST and Friday night by ET. It will be a sight to behold if this young and fighting Celtics squad makes it past The King at his own palace.
It was nice to bring the game to y'all out there, we thank every one of you for hanging with us on this live ticker. This is Yash Matange and Amulya Shekhar signing off from the game, reach out to us at Sportskeeda Basketball on Facebook if you have something to talk to us about, or tweet me at tweet_amulya.

Hill gets fouled and he makes both FT's.

LeBron misses his 3 and Tatum gets the rebound. 

He runs down the floor and gets fouled. He makes 1-of-2

Both teams missing open shots right now -add Brown and Clarkson to that list.
