There’s no denying the Celtics’ backs will be against the wall when they face down elimination against the Milwaukee Bucks Friday night at Fiserv Forum.
Coming back from a heartbreaking Game 5 loss in Boston and forcing a Game 7 at TD Garden will be no small task against Giannis Antetokoumnpo and the defending champion Bucks, of course.
But if nothing else, the Celtics have proven themselves full of surprises this postseason, including stealing Game 4 from the Bucks in Milwaukee.
Former NBA coach and current TNT analyst Stan Van Gundy has seen this heavyweight fight up close on a few occasions already and has come away impressed.
