NBA playoffs: Celtics-Heat Game 6 live updates, scores, lineups, injury report, how to watch, TV channel

Never say never. No NBA team has ever come back from an 0-3 deficit in 150 tries. The No. 2-seeded Boston Celtics were facing that hole, then rattled off two straight wins to claw back into the Eastern Conference finals and force Game 6 against the No. 8-seeded Miami Heat on Saturday in Miami.

The series seems renewed and the Celtics aren't about to go quietly into the night. They still need to win two more games to return to the NBA Finals. The West's top-seeded Denver Nuggets await the winner of this series for a June 1 start to the Finals.
