Different play
Doc Rivers said the Celtics weren’t going for the tie at the end of the first overtime when Paul Pierce buried a shot to send the game into a second extra frame.
“The second three (in overtime) we drew up for [Pierce] to take a quick shot, not a three,” said Rivers. “And he just made it, which was awesome. I mean, that’s what great players do.”
