The Celtics went behind by 17 points in the first half to Karl-Anthony Towns and the Timberwolves, tossing turnovers around while Kemba Walker struggled and Jayson Tatum got frustrated with the officiating. In the second half, Marcus Smart exploded with energy, forcing two steals, a jump ball and hitting 7-of-12 field goal in the game along with stopping Anthony Edwards in transition to help turn the game around. Tristan Thompson and Smart built a wall inside against Towns, while Tatum scored 13 points in a row to close the third, taking a lead shortly into the fourth, before he finished with a career-high 53 points to match Isaiah Thomas' legendary playoff total. Jaylen Brown converted 7-of-10 to keep the game moderately close early while Kemba hit back-to-back threes in overtime to seal the game. D'Angelo Russell erased a late Celtics lead with a 14-2 run that helped Minnesota force overtime in the eventual Boston win, conflicting John Zannis and A. Sherrod Blakely about how good to feel about the win.
