**CLEVELAND, Ohio** - Jayson Tatum put on a show for LeBron James on Monday night, scoring 33 points to lead the Boston Celtics to a 109-102 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Celtics took control of the game in the second half, holding the Cavaliers to just 42.2% shooting from the field. Cleveland also struggled from three-point range, making just 17.4% of their attempts. "We just wanted to make it tough on them," said Tatum.
