Not only do the Celtics need to climb out of a 2-0 series deficit, but there's more recent history that they need to overcome.

For a second-straight game, the Celtics blew a 20-point lead on Wednesday night at home to lose to New York at the buzzer. New York forward Mikal Bridges' clutch steals have capped those incredible Knicks comebacks, putting his team ahead with a 2-0 series lead against Boston.

What is wrong with the Boston Celtics to cause them to drop two games to the New York Knicks to start their 2025 NBA Eastern Conference Semifinals second round series? Not only that, but they lost the contests on their own home court of TD Garden after being up in the second half of the game by as much as 20 points.
