The Celtics drained six of their first seven 3-pointers in Saturday and continued to bolster their confidence by making hustle plays that earned them extra opportunities to launch more threes.

The Celtics are seeking to become just the fifth team to win a series after losing the first two games at home in 26 instances since 1984.

The New York Knicks were in a prime position to capitalize on their 2-0 series lead over the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference semifinals on Saturday afternoon. New York's road to the 2-0 series lead was far from easy, as they overcame 20-point deficits in each game.
