"Gave up" implies they were ever trying. I didn't see them put together 2 straight minutes of real basketball over the entire game last night.

Boston now finds itself in rare company as just the second top-seeded team under the NBA's current playoff format to drop the first two games against an 8-seed.
Here's some positivity that Bradley can lean on: The only other such instance was the 1993 Phoenix Suns, who rallied from two games down to beat the Los Angeles Lakers in a best-of-five series and went on to reach the NBA Finals.
