Amid another ref controversy, White’s Game 6 buzzer-beater has Celtics on verge of history

No team has ever come back from down 3-0 out of 149 tries in the NBA.

But the Boston Celtics have found a way to tie this Eastern Conference Finals series vs. Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo, and the Miami Heat. It’s now 3-3 heading back to TD Garden.

Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and co. headed into Game 6 as just the 12th team to even push a series to six games after dropping the first three. And now, they’re just one of four teams in history to push it to seven.

Of those four of 149, they’re the only ones who will host the seventh and final contest.
