NBA Playoffs Comebacks?

     Last night the Celtics and Rockets each won their 2nd straight of the series. The Celtics beat the Knicks 92-86. Kevin Garnett had 16 points and added 18 boards as well. The Knicks were off from behind the 3pt line shooting 5-22. The Celtics also helped their own cause by shooting 100 % from the FT line. Melo dropped 22 but it wasn't enough to end the series. After the game the two teams got tangled up a little but nothing very bad happened. In the Rockets-Thunder game 8 of the 10 starters scored in double figures, and 5 of 5 Rockets' starters scored in double figures. James Harden had 31 points and 8 rebounds while going 7-9 on threes. Francisco Garcia was also launching, as he dropped 18 points on 5-12 shooting from 3 point range. Kendrick Perkins only played 16 minutes, and he could have helped them get the W. Kevin Durant scored 36 points, grabbed 7 boards, and dished out 7 assists. The final was 100-107 Rockets. ATL took on IND and the Pacers dominated the Hawks, 83-106. The Hawks shot only 21.4 % from 3. There was also only a total of 16 fast break points. Paul George had 21 points, 10 boards, and 5 assists on 7-8 shooting.
