Celtics use dominant 4th quarter to go up 2-0 on Nets
Seven Boston Celtics players scored in double digits as the Celtics used a balanced attack and a 4th quarter comeback to take care of business in Boston. Marcus Smart hit a huge 4th quarter lay-up to pretty much seal the deal and give the Celtics a sweet comeback win. The Nets led by as much as 17 points in the game. The final score for Game 2 was Celtics 114, Nets 107.

On the Brookyn end, Kyrie Irving put up a real stinker finishing with just 10 points, which means of course that seven Celtics scored as many or more points than the Nets' star guard. The Celtics will now head to Brooklyn for Games 3 and 4.
FINAL: Celtics 114, Nets 107
