NBA Season Ends With Celtics' Loss to Warriors in Game 6 of NBA Finals

Celtics vs. Warriors live stream: How to watch NBA Finals Game 6 originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston

The Celtics came two wins away from an NBA Championship, but the season came to an end with a Warriors victory in Game 6.

Boston got off to an early lead, but was largely outscored through the rest of the game.

Golden State beat Boston 103-90, depriving the Celtics of the title.

An earlier version of this story follows.

Will the Golden State Warriors celebrate their fourth championship in eight seasons on Boston's home turf? Or will the 2022 NBA Finals be decided in a winner-take-all Game 7 in San Francisco?

Those are the stakes for Thursday's Game 6 at TD Garden. The Warriors own a 3-2 series lead after winning Game 4 in Boston and Game 5 at Chase Center to hand the Celtics back-to-back losses for the first time since late March. With a victory Thursday, the Warriors would become the first team since the 1990s Chicago Bulls to win at least four titles in an eight-year span.

The Celtics have been here before, however. They rallied from a 3-2 deficit in the Eastern Conference semifinals to defeat the Milwaukee Bucks in seven games and beat the Miami Heat on the road in Game 7 of the East Finals. They've played their best basketball with their backs against the wall, and they'll need to continue that trend Thursday night.

Boston will look for a "superstar" game from Jayson Tatum, who is shooting just 37.3 percent from the floor in the series but is averaging a series-high 7.0 assists per game. They'll also try to prevent a bounce-back game from Stephen Curry after the Warriors star failed to make a 3-pointer for the first time in 233 games.
