Celtics lament lost second but keep focus on G7

WALTHAM, Mass. -- Boston Celtics point guard Isaiah Thomas believes he would have been able to get a better final look at the end of Game 6 with an extra second on the clock but Boston players and coaches ultimately reasoned that there's little use lamenting what could have been.

The NBA admitted in a Last Two Minute report Saturday that the Celtics should have had an extra second on the clock before the final play in the Washington Wizards' 92-91 triumph on Friday. Thomas missed a rushed, off-balance 3-point heave before the final buzzer.
