LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- For the past two days, the world waited to see how the Boston Celtics would respond to both collapsing down the stretch for a second straight game to open the Eastern Conference finals and the emotional outbursts in the locker room that followed.
But after the Celtics got themselves back into their series against the Miami Heat with a 117-106 victory Saturday night in Game 3, Boston said its response was proof that there is more than enough resolve within this team to turn this series around and win it.
