As important as winning both in Boston were I think this game as huge for Boston as well as Brooklyn. While it's tough to sweep any team going up 3-0 should demoralize Brooklyn. I don't see them as a team that has a ton of fight so if they lose today then I feel this series is absolutely over. If they win tonight then 2-1 for Brooklyn is nothing in their minds. They feel they can win in Boston since the games were very close but if they lose the 1st at home then I feel they will shut it down.
The crazy part for the C's is that they haven't played a full Celtic game yet. Tatum and Brown havent had that 30/30 game yet that should happen soon. They've played poor 1st halves both games. If they put it all together for 4 quarters and hold the nets to 105 or less they will win tonight by 12 at minimum. They just need to have that Celtic energy from the 1st minute. Brooklyn will need to come out hot and swinging.
