The Boston Celtics gave the Golden State Warriors a heck of a ride their last time out, when they took the defending NBA champions into double overtime before falling just short, and allowing the Western Conference side to pick up their record 24th victory to start the season.

They’ll go right back to taking on a team that participated in last year’s NBA Finals on Tuesday evening when they host the Cleveland Cavaliers at TD Garden Arena.
For the Cavaliers, they’re starting to get healthy, which could mean big things are coming from the top team in the East.
Cleveland Cavaliers:
The Cavaliers got Iman Shumpert back on the weekend, putting together a 111-76 beat down on the Orlando Magic on Friday evening. Shumpert, who had been sidelined since September with a wrist injury, scored 14 points on 5 of 7 in 25 minutes of court time.

LeBron James scored 25 points while playing only 25 minutes in the rout. The Cavaliers shot 56.9 percent from the field as a team, the best mark they’ve put up all season long. The team also scored 31 points off 20 turnovers.
They’ve now won two in a row following a three-game losing skid.
Boston Celtics:
The Celtics fell to the Warriors by a score of 124-119 in double-overtime at TD Garden on Friday. The team understandably had a letdown in its next outing, but fought back to down the Charlotte Hornets by a score of 98-93 on the road on Saturday.

Both teams pride themselves on their play at the defensive end, and that’s going to be where this game is decided. Expect this game to have a playoff type atmosphere as both sides work out some frustrations from last year’s playoff series.

The Celtics also have the added benefit of getting some extended rest in advance of this one, which will allow the team an opportunity to rest up and come out ready to put together the kind of strong defensive performance we’ve come to expect from this squad.
