No Epic Comeback For The Celtics & Every Sports Fan Outside Of Boston Is Celebrating

Good morning, Sports fans!   Davey Mac here with a very big Sports Report for ya!   Hope you had a great three-day weekend...if you missed any big stories from yesterday...don't worry!   We've got you covered with this article!   NBA & NHL playoffs!   MLB scores!   Indy 500 results!   NFL scuttlebutt!   And more!   But first! Everyone outside of the Boston area can breathe a sigh of relief as the Celtics failed to win Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals yesterday...preventing them from coming back in the series...down zero games to 3.   They were looking to become the first team in NBA history to win a series after trailing thee games to none.   The previous 150 teams who attempted this ALL fell short.   As did Boston last night.
