Celtics has won six best of seven series when trailing 3-2, the most in the NBA.

Yeah that's not happening this time around. You can just tell by the air and energy from these guys and all season long.

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

I feel the C's will win Game 7 for sure if they win Game 6

Problem is, I really, really doubt they win Game 6. The momentum is entirely with PHI and the vibes just feel off with this team. Idk but even last season when we were trailing in series, it still felt like the team would at least battle and you had some hope.

That's some real alternate history.

Just need to get the Celtics a motorcycle and a staircase.

Miami has come out pretty well on the road, and despite a big run from NYK, they've responded

Wish the C's had that killer mentality. Miami might take this in 5 as well just like first round even with a road Game 5.

Maybe. But Miami haven't yet beaten them quicker than we beat the Hawks

Someone let Miami know that they have the necessary killer instinct to finish this. It might help them come back from 18 down

The way Miami cheats every single possession on either end is astonishing

Another home team win in Game 5. Knicks survived for another day.

Jalen Brunson played all 48 mins. Wow.
