A Nets' win in Game 2 is a kiss of death for Celtics' playoff hopes

The track record for teams coming back from being down 0-2 to win a series is not very encouraging. Throughout NBA history, the 27-399 overall mark for teams in that situation tells the whole story.
Surprisingly, the Boston Celtics made two such comebacks in their playoff history, ousting Chicago in 2017 in the first round and the Lakers in the 1969 NBA finals after going down 2-0. As Kevin Garnett taught Celtics fans 13 years ago, "Anything is possible." Well, especially if a former Celtic great is the GM that netted you KG, but that's a story for another day. The fact of the matter is, Brooklyn's talent is overwhelming and for the Celtics, Game 2 represents their chance to stabilize the series and at least give the Nets something to think about heading to Beantown.
