With 76ers awaiting, Hawks and Celtics prepare for Game 6 -
Jaylen Brown called a fourth quarter in which the Celtics allowed a 12-0 run by the Hawks to tie the game “a disgrace.”
The Celtics are 6.5-point favorites to prevail in Game 6, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. The extension of the series is good news for the awaiting Philadelphia 76ers, who will have even more time to rest before the start of the second round. That’s huge for star Joel Embiid, who is recovering from a sprained knee.
Derrick White said having a core group that experienced moments of adversity last season will be key in helping Boston bounce back. “We’ve got a lot of guys in here that trust each other,” White said. “We’ve just got to lean on each other and get through this together.”“We’re still in an elimination phase,” Young said. “If we lose one, we’re done. So, we’ve got to keep that same energy and be ready to play when we get back home.
- KEEP AN EYE ON: Atlanta’s Dejounte Murray. He sat out Game 5 serving a one-game suspension for bumping and verbally abusing a referee in the Hawks’ Game 4 loss. He returns to a team that finally found its shooting touch, knocking down 19 3-pointers in Tuesday’s win. Murray’s presence will force the Celtics to make some difficult decisions on the defensive end.- PRESSURE IS ON: Boston.
