Nets - Celtics | times, TV, how and where to watch NBA Playoffs online
Ben Simmons has been ruled out for Game 2 of the Nets’ first-round playoff series against the Boston Celtics on Wednesday.
On the final key sequence of Game 1 in their first-round playoff series, all five Boston Celtics on the court touched the ball following a defensive stop that led to Jayson Tatum’s game-winning layup as the buzzer sounded.
Coming off a dramatic series opener, the Celtics will use their solidarity-driven momentum to seek a 2-0 lead in their Eastern Conference first-round series Wednesday night when they play host to the Brooklyn Nets.
The Celtics aim to win the first two games of a first-round playoff series for the fourth time in five seasons. Last year, they were overmatched against Brooklyn’s star trio of Kevin Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving and lost the first-round series in five games.
This time, the Celtics own better cohesion, especially in the past two-plus months. The togetherness emerged in a frenetic final few possessions of Sunday’s dramatic 115-114 win.
