Boston Celtics kill the confetti; go up 3-0 on Sixers (videos)

PHILADELPHIA -- In another heartbreaking loss for the Sixers, the Celtics grabbed a 3-0 lead in their best-of-7 series in an overtime thriller in Philly. After a miraculous game-tying shot at the end of regulation by Sixers shooter Marco Belinelli fell through the bottom of the net, Brad Stevens reminded his group that they’ve been through the same level of adversity throughout the season and know what it will take to seal a win.

“We talked about it in the huddle heading into overtime. No team is more built for having a disappointing end in regulation and then turning it around and winning it,” Stevens said.
