Boston was a team-record 24-of-53 from 3-point land in Game 4, then went flat (11-of-39, 28%) in Game 5. It was an off-night for the better and healthier team in this series. Philadelphia leaned on its best players to stay alive, with four starters playing 39, 40, 43, and 43 minutes. In the last three games, Boston's edge in offensive rebounding has been impressive. The Celtics won Games 3 and 4 at Philadelphia, 108-100 and 128-96. Look for a big bounce-back effort as the talented and deep men in green end this series. Play Boston.
