Boston: news and form
After a thunderous start in this NBA final, the Celtics came back to earth in game 2 (107-88). They were dominated in the physical duel and cracked in the third quarter by conceding a difference of +21. This defeat seems relatively logical and puts the two franchises on a par. Boston will try to regain the advantage this Wednesday evening since the series will relocate for the first time in Massachusetts. But his home stints had not necessarily been very successful in the conference final once morest the Heat. Watch out for danger!
Celtics: players to watch
Despite the loss in this game 2, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum continued to be the two best players in their franchise. The first scored 17 points while the second finished at 28 points in the game. But the two All-Stars really need the rest of their teammates to switch the meetings. They were present in Game 1, with an impressive Al Horford with 26 points or a Derrick White with 21 points. Point guard Marcus Smart will also have to do better as he changes the face of his team when he takes the game on his own.
Golden State: news and form
We were very surprised by the Warriors’ inaugural defeat in this NBA final, but the response was immediate. The San Francisco players have raised the tension on the floor of the Chase Center. When the Warriors accelerated in the third round, they left their opponents behind to win quietly. Although they did not release a total mastery over the meeting, they seemed above the Celtics. Two games in Boston now await them. They will absolutely have to win one to come back with home advantage.
Warriors: players to follow
In this final, the Golden State metronome remains Stephen Curry. The 34-year-old said he still felt in his prime as he finished as team and game leading scorer with 29 points. His performance was all the more appreciated as his usual partner, Klay Thompson, is particularly inside since the beginning of this series. On the other hand, the performance of Draymond Green was particularly noticed. Not in terms of accounting, but in terms of aggressiveness. The player who is able to derail any opponent has spent the second in physical combat and trashtalking.

In the Celtics’ previous series, they paradoxically struggled in front of their home crowd. We think the Warriors will pull out all the stops tonight to get back ahead in this final.

The Golden State guard missed his first two NBA Finals games. But we know it is still capable of catching fire at least once in a series. It would be fashionable for him to wake up to help his team tame the TD Garden and regain the advantage of the field.
