Game 3 started off the same exact way as Game 1 & 2 with the Wizards completely dominating the Celtics in the 1st Quarter. The difference is, in Game 3 the dominance by the Wizards carried on into Quarters 2, 3, & 4. The defense of the Wizards didn't let up today as Isaiah Thomas only scored 13 points with only 4 rebounds. His stats did not look like they did in the first 2 games. Al Horford's 16 points lead the Celtics in Game 3 and was not nearly enough for the C's to stay in the game.
Meanwhile, John Wall lead the way for his team scoring 24 points with 8 assists, 3 steals and 1 block. His great perfomance was followed up by Bogdanovic's 19 points & 10 rebounds. The Wizards looked like a more poise team in Game 3.
The battle between these 2 teams continues to lead to victories on their home floors. This entire season has gone this way. With that said, can the C's or the Wizards steal a win on the opposing teams home floor? If not, this battle will go 7 games and will end on the home floor of the Celtics. This series is growing very interesting as we get ready to head into Game 4 on Sunday. The Wizards are only game from tying the series. Celtics lead 2-1.
