Despite a great start by Washington, the Boston Celtics turned things around in the third quarter and got the win in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Isaiah Thomas with 33 points and 9 assists led the charge and didn’t mind getting a tooth knocked out while playing defense. Al Horford was also amazing with 21 points, 10 assists and 9 rebounds and the final score was 123-111 with the winners shooting almost 50% in threes (19/39).

Bradley Beal had 27 points for the losing side and Polish center Marcin Gortat finished the game with a double double (16 p. 13 r.).

Croatian sharpshooter Bojan Bogdanovic came from the bench and was also a factor with 10 points, cutting Boston’s lead to three points (101-98) with seven minutes left. Still that was the best that Washington could do.
