INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Boston Celtics completed one quest Monday night by returning to the NBA Finals.
Now, they'll chase an even bigger goal, the one that's eluded this team for more than a decade — capturing the franchise’s 18th championship.
Yes, despite playing for six conference titles in eight seasons, this marks only the second time Boston has advanced to The Finals during that span. And since winning their first NBA title in 1957, the Celtics' current 16-year drought is the second-longest in franchise history.
It would be the crowning achievement to what has already been a remarkable season.
