The Boston Celtics are one step closer to achieving what no team has ever done: Winning a playoff series after going down 3-0. Miami struggled without injured Gabe Vincent as Boston’s balanced offense dismantled the Heat 110-97.
Here’s how NBA Twitter reacted to Boston’s win:

And it’s not the good kind.
