The Cleveland Cavaliers executed a remarkable comeback against the Boston Celtics, overcoming an early 22-3 deficit to win 123-116 and tie their season series at 2-2. Star players Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley emphasized the grit displayed by the team, showcasing their ability to respond under pressure. Despite Jayson Tatum's outstanding performance with 46 points, Cleveland proved their championship mettle by defeating the defending champions at home. This victory served as a pivotal moment for the Cavaliers in their ongoing quest for success this season, with Mitchell reflecting on the importance of consistency and growth.
Everything that could have possibly went wrong went wrong. At that point, it's like, you can only go up from there. Give them credit, they started the way they were supposed to but for us, we've given up 38-point quarters before...even when we got the lead, just still being consistent.
It means we've got grit. No matter how down bad we get, we're going to keep fighting, keep going all the way to the end of the game. Tonight we kept fighting.
At the end of the day, we've done a lot of really good things this season. I keep telling my guys, we haven't done anything. This is a measuring stick.
