Eastern Conference Finals, Game 4: New Jersey Devils vs. New York Rangers - 8 p.m.
Avery Bradley probably shouldn't be out on the court, if we're being honest here. His shoulder popped out of its socket, again, in the second half of the Boston Celtics' Game 4 on Saturday. Before he could reach the end of the bench trainer Eddie Lacerte popped it back in and sent Bradley on his way to shoot free throws. Bradley is playing through immense pain at the moment with Ray Allen limited. His grittiness hasn't been lost on coach Doc Rivers.
The Boston Red Sox have won seven of their last nine games. After pitcher Josh Beckett was shelled in an 8-3 loss to the Cleveland Indians on May 10, the Red Sox won five games in a row. Could a players-only team meeting have sparked the turnaround for Boston?
Designated hitter David Ortiz reportedly called a team meeting on May 11 (via Fox Sports). The meeting was "heated" and involved hitters telling pitchers to "step it up." Since the players meeting, the Red Sox have improved to 20-21 overall, including Sunday's 5-1 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. Boston is now 6.5 games behind the surprising Baltimore Orioles for first place in the AL East.
