Your Morning Dump… Where the NBA gets the Game 5 it wanted

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big story line. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.

There was disappointment in the locker room but the Celtics appeared resigned. They didn’t attempt a free throw from the 11-minute mark of the second period to the 28.3-second mark of the third period, a stretch of 22 minutes, 32 seconds. The 76ers attempted 16 in that span.

When the referee assignments for last night’s Game 4 became known yesterday morning, a collective groan was heard from Celtics Nation.
