Celtics Comeback From 24 Down, Beat Lakers Taking 3-1 Lead
What an amazing game by the Celtics tonight. If you stopped watching the game after the 1st quarter, you screwed up big time. The Celtics were down by 24 points at one point and 18 points going into the 3rd quarter. With 6 minutes (or so) in the 3rd, the Celtics pulled together one of the greatest comebacks in NBA history. The only one better, was the Celtics Eastern conference championship comeback in 2002 while down by 26 points at one point and 21 points going into the 4th quarter. The Lakers thought they were going to make it 2-2, but the Celtics never gave up and took a 3-1 lead winning 97-91.
The Celtics homepage after the win said they were down by a lot going into the half. However, on the right it says that the Celtics won 97-91.

Game 5 is on Father’s day (June 15th) where the Celtics will try to bring home their 17th Championship banner.
