Jaylen Brown praised his team Boston Celtics for their team performance in beating Miami 110-97 in Game 5 of the NBA Eastern Conference finals.<\/p>\n
Boston reduced its deficit to 2-3 with the win in the series. The Celtics will now look to even the score on Saturday in Miami. If they pull off a comeback, Boston will become the first team in NBA history to win a series after trailing 0-3.<\/p>\n
Brown, who contributed 21 points, said the team was up against the wall after the first three games. “Obviously, we didn’t imagine getting into a situation like this, but once we faced the reality, you could see what the team is made of. It couldn’t have been worse than 0:3, but we didn’t look back and we didn’t go in different directions. We stayed together,” he said.<\/p>\n
Only three teams have taken a streak to a seventh game after losing the first three games, the last being Portland in 2003.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor some reason, even last year it seemed like we were making things difficult for ourselves. But the character of a person, of a team, shows when things don’t go well,” added Jayson Tatum, who also scored 21 points.<\/p>\n
“We showed how much we want success, we are committed and we believe in our teammates,” he added.<\/p>\n
Jaylen Brown has no illusions that Game 6 against Miami will be easy. \u201cThese guys can play a lot better and they’re going to come out extremely aggressive. We will be ready to take their hit,” Brown explained.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
