That is it. Two nights after an embarrassing second-half performance, the second-seeded Celtics submitted one of their worst efforts of the season, losing to the Sixers, 106-93, in Game 6 of their first-round playoff series, and now they face a Game 7 — and the possibility that they can blow a 3-1 lead — at home on Saturday.
A reminder: Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have never lost a first-round series as a tandem. They have never blown a 3-1 lead. None of this has ever happened to them.
