Celtics vs Sixers: Game Four

The 76ers got a stirring victory over the Celtics as they stunned the men in green with an 18 point comeback.

Down big and on the verge of having to go into Boston to fight for their playoff lives, Andre Iguoldala came up big, knocking down key shots including a shot clock beating triple.

Iguodala high scored for the Sixers with 16 points while Evan Turner also had 16 but shot at just 5-22 (22%) from the field.

“I thought, for the most part, we played decent defense. We just didn’t do it well enough in the last four or five minutes.”
– Boston forward Garnett.

Rajon Rondo was the Cs best, or at least close to it, with 15 points and 15 assists while Paul Pierce had 24 points on one knee.

Yet it seemed that the offence did not go through Garnett enough, as he had only 9 points. When he has a big night and gets lots of touches, the Celtics seem to win. When he does not, they appear to struggle. An interesting thought to carry into Game 5 in Boston.
