Sam Hauser was hotter than the sun, shooting 10 of 13 from 3 before leaving with an ankle injury. We recapped the game LIVE on Celtics Late night, discussing Hauser's near-historic night, Tatum's casual dominance, the evolution of this year's bench squad, and Jrue Holiday's insane numbers since the all star break.
Plus, we're not worried about Kristaps Porzingis, but when should we be?
This episode is the recording from our live YouTube show, Celtics Late Night. Every now and then we throw these up on the podcast feed because they're a lot of fun, and this is one of those occasions!

The Boston Celtics made their third comeback in four games to punch their ticket back to the NBA Finals while sweeping the fairly decent Indiana Pacers. Jaylen Brown is the well-deserved ECF MVP, but who are the other candidates? Join us for a full recap of game 4 while we try to comprehend just how the Celtics pulled this one out.


The Celtics SWEEP their way back to the Finals

It's been almost 24 hours and we are still freaking out over the Boston Celtics' ridiculous comeback win over the Indiana Pacers. What were the key moments in the comeback? Can the Celtics wrap it up in 4? Plus, Jayson Tatum's return to form, Jrue Holiday's clutch defense, and Al Horford makes us shed tears of joy.



The Celtics are ONE win away from the NBA Finals

What a comeback!! The Celtics made a ridiculous comeback in Indy to take a 3-0 series lead. Jrue Holiday was incredible despite his illness, Al Horford hit a thousand 3-pointers, and Jayson Tatum made a timely return to form. 



"Hang it in the f***ing Lourve" | Celtics overcome 18pt deficit to take a 3-0 lead (Celtics Late Night)

The Celtics have taken a commanding 2-0 lead heading into Game 3 in Indiana. Do the Pacers have any chance if Tyrese Haliburton is legitimately injured? What adjustments worked for Boston in Game 2, and what's likely to change in Games 3 and 4?


Checking in as the series shifts to Indiana | w/ Dan Greenberg

Jaylen Brown's efficient 40 points led the Celtics to a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference Finals, leaving the Celtics just two wins away from a return to the NBA Finals. Can Jayson Tatum find some consistency with his rhythm by the series' end? Has the Kristaps Porzingis timeline shifted yet again? Plus, Oshae Brissett thrives in small-ball, Jrue Holiday and Derrick White are awesome, and much more.
