LIVE: @cavs/@celtics Game 2 Postgame Presser #NBAPlayoffs presented by Google Pixel twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1DXxyjpwRRkKM

Just four offensive rebounds for the Celtics so far. The Cavaliers, who can be susceptible on the glass, gave up double digits in six of their eight previous playoff games.

Cleveland scored 36 points in the paint during the first half with 15-for-20 shooting at the rim. That means nearly half of the Cavs' shots were at the rim. Not typical for the Celtics defense to allow that type of shot profile.
