BOSTON - Brad Stevens finally unleashed the Swedish Larry Bird Friday and was rewarded with sweet Jonas glory.
Jerebko scored 11 points, tied a game-high with 12 rebounds and dished out 4 assists to help lead the Celtics to a vital 111-103 Game 3 win over the Atlanta Hawks.
With Jerebko and Turner in the starting lineup, the Celtics offense was rejuvenated. Turner scored 16 points with seven assists while running the offense for most of the night. They constantly posted him up on a smaller guard and whipped the ball to an open shooter as the Hawks collapsed.
Isaiah Thomas scored a career-high 42 points while being the center of attention to some rough play and a pair of flagrant fouls. There were four flagrant foul reviews in Game 3, with one being overturned.
The Celtics had a massive run in the first quarter and led 37-20 at the quarter break. But the Hawks ramped up their defense in the second before stomping out the Celtics' 17-point third quarter lead.
But Isaiah Thomas had an answer for the Hawks, as he continued to get to the line whenever the Celtics needed to stop the Hawks' momentum. It culminated with Thomas sniping a dagger from 30-feet out in an unsuspecting Jeff Teague's grill...READ FULL REPORT
