Have you ever heard the phrase that “the bar is the floor?” Well, it would’ve applied to what it’d take for the Boston Celtics to win Game 3 and take a 3-0 series lead over the Orlando Magic.
The bar was, in fact, the floor.
Yet, the Celtics managed to find themselves in the basement.
It wasn’t always that way, though. Boston went into halftime with a 10-point lead over the hosts. They then headed to the locker room for what one can only assume was a Space Jam-esque loss of their basketball abilities.
