Videos: Boston Celtics 104, Atlanta Hawks 95 Playoffs game 4 highlights and box score
The Boston Celtics evened their first round playoffs series 2-2 against Atlanta on Sunday evening at the TD Garden with a 104-95 overtime victory against the Hawks, with many New England Patriots in attendance to support: Bob Kraft, Bill Belichick, Rob Gronkowski and LeGarrette Blount. Blount and Isaiah Thomas shared a nice moment after the game where IT4 gave Blount his jersey (although I am not sure that it will fit him).
