Boston Celtics fans are a bit anxious this week following their team's shocking 111-97 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers in Game 2 at TD Garden.
With the series tied at 1-1, the pressure is on the Celtics to respond in Game 3 on the road.
Fortunately, they've been here before, having lost four of their previous seven Game 2s at home. Three of those four times, they bounced back to win Game 3 on the road.
Accordingly, Boston beat reporter Noa Dalzell isn't concerned about them heading into Friday's contest.
"No reason to panic. 1-1 is not a terrible place to be. This team's been so good on the road," Dalzell said following Tuesday's loss. "They've been good with their backs against the wall for years now, right?... They have a long history of those kinds of games. Think they're gonna respond just fine in this series."
