Celtics Slip in Game 5, Fans Worry

On April 29, Boston Celtics dropped a tough one, 0-3-97 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers

at home on Tuesday, April 28.

That puts the Eastern Conference first round series at three games to two in Boston's

favor, with game six headed to Philly's Arena this Thursday, April 30.

The real story hit in that fourth quarter where the Celtics just fell apart defensively

and couldn't keep up the pace.

They got outscored big time as the sixers turned up the heat with aggressive play.

Fans are buzzing now, wondering if the slip-up signals bigger trouble heading into Philly.

Some point fingers at shaky shooting from stars, others at the whole team's lack of fire,

and yeah, even questions about Coach Joe Mizzoula's calls.

A fresh breakdown from the WEEI Boston Sports Crew on their YouTube channel digs into it

all, highlighting that team-wide defensive drop and missed.

Intensity.

Still, with the lead intact, Boston's got a chance to wrap this up on the road, keep

an eye on how they bounce back Thursday night.
