Celtics vs. Warriors: TV channel, live stream, prediction, odds and radio station for NBA Finals Game 4
By Joe Mullinax
The Boston Celtics will be looking to put the Golden State Warriors firmly on the ropes in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
The Golden State Warriors looked like their old selves in one quarter of Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday night – the 3rd quarter, when they historically have thrived and beat Boston 33-25. Otherwise, the Boston Celtics dominated the contest and especially the game’s first and final frames. Boston outscored the Warriors 56-33 across the 1st and 4th quarters and rode strong both a strong start and fabulous finish on their way to a 2-1 series advantage.
The trio of Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Marcus Smart were too much for Golden State in Game 3 as they combined for 77 points on 56 shots and 10 made threes on 41.6 percent shooting. Meanwhile, while Stephen Curry (31 points) and Klay Thompson (25 points) were able to keep pace with the scoring of Boston’s key three they only had two other players score in double figures – Andrew Wiggins (18) and Jordan Poole (10). No other Warriors player scored more than 6 points in the game. More will be needed from those 2 if Golden State wants to take back home-court advantage, especially if Steph Curry isn’t 100 percent after his Game 3 injury scare (it seems he may be close to 100 percent, however).
Tipoff from the TD Garden in Boston, MA will be at 9:00 p.m. ET, Friday, June 10.

Golden State Warriors vs Boston Celtics Game 4 prediction
The Golden State Warriors have struggled mightily when Draymond Green has played poorly in the Finals. Green has the same amount of points in this series as he does fouls, and in Games 1 and 3, Draymond played the worst games of his NBA Finals career. In Game 2, he had 9 points on 3 attempts alongside 7 rebounds and was a +7 for the Warriors as he held his own against the Boston bigs. Golden State winning that contest isn’t surprising.
The Warriors winning this game in Boston, with the Celtics performing so well offensively and the depth that Boston has in the front court compared to this undersized Golden State squad, would be. The series won’t end in San Francisco – the Warriors almost certainly will not lie down in a do-or-die Game 5 at home. But Game 4 will belong to the Celtics.
Prediction: Celtics 109, Warriors 102
