The Boston Celtics look to keep their season alive tonight with a “win or go home” Game 6 against the Miami Heat.

Though they may have had their backs up against the wall, the Boston Celtics came out with vengeance in Friday’s Game 5 against the Miami Heat, attaining the highest point-differential victory throughout these Eastern Conference Finals (121-108) and, in turn, kept their season going.

Coming into this series, it was a widely accepted notion that the shamrocks were the favored team of the matchup. After all, they did win two of their previous three regular-season outings and finished three spots ahead of Miami in the conference standings.
