The Celtics may battle their way to two more wins in a refusal to go out silently, but New York has reduced them to an erratic collection of deep gunners who cannot find consistency on offense. Boston’s interior game looks even less effective with Kristaps Porzingis trying to work through an illness.

Bill Simmons revealed why he feels arrogance played a role in the Celtics' second-half collapses against the Knicks.

The average cost was $1,956 for Game 3 and $1,716 for Game 4 at Madison Square Garden. The cheapest ticket for Game 3 was $626; for Game 4 it's $613.
