The top-seeded Boston Celtics continued their impressive playoff run on Wednesday, defeating the shorthanded Cleveland Cavaliers 113-98 to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals for the third consecutive season. Jayson Tatum led the Celtics with 25 points, while Jaylen Brown added 25 points and seven rebounds. The Celtics, who have the NBA's best record this season, dominated the Cavaliers from start to finish. They led by as many as 24 points in the third quarter and never trailed in the game. The Cavaliers, who were without All-Star guard Darius Garland, played hard but were simply outmatched by the Celtics' superior talent and experience. Donovan Mitchell led the Cavaliers with 24 points, while Jarrett Allen added 22 points and 13 rebounds. The Celtics will now face the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Heat are a tough opponent, but the Celtics are confident they can win the series and advance to the NBA Finals.

The Celtics' victory over the Cavaliers was their 14th in a row, and they are now 16-2 in the playoffs this season. They are the only team in the NBA to have lost fewer than three games in the playoffs.

The Celtics are looking to win their 18th NBA championship, which would tie them with the Los Angeles Lakers for the most in league history. They have not won a championship since 2008.

The Celtics are a team with a lot of talent and experience, and they are playing with a lot of confidence. They are the favorites to win the NBA championship this season.
