For the third time in these playoffs, the Celtics head into a Game 6 with a 3-2 series lead. Boston won the previous two games (against Cleveland and Orlando), but this time, it's on the road. And against the Lakers. And for an NBA Championship.
The Celtics have the chance to become the first 4th seeded team or lower to win the championship since the 6th seeded Rockets did it by sweeping the #1 seeded Orlando Magic in 1995. The title is there for the Celtics to take and hopefully they come out strong and win it here and now.
Head over to our Celtics blog, CelticsBlog, for a complete preview of Game 6, including probable lineups, key matchups, four keys to the game and the X-factors.
And for Game 6, the guys at CelticsBlog will feature both a Live Chat and a Game Thread.
Game 6, and the battle for Banner 18, begins at 9:00 P.M. ET.
