After playing with little energy and no defense in the first 3 games, the Celtics finally returned to their defensive identity in Game 4 to force a Game 5. The Celtics were mostly competitive in the first two games, getting out to a lead in both games but fading down the stretch to lose Game 1 123-116 and Game 2 111-105.
