"The comeback. It's a sports tale as old as time," Ortiz and Edelman said between highlights of the 2004 Boston Red Sox, the New England Patriots-Atlanta Falcons Super Bowl, and 2022-23 Celtics. "In this town, we have been here before. Backs against the wall. Taking it one game at a time. Taking it one play at a time.
"But this time, don't call it a comeback. Call it unfinished business."
The C's aim to become the first team in their sport ever to come back from down 0-3 in a playoff series, just as Ortiz's Red Sox accomplished vs. the New York Yankees in the '04 American League Championship Series.
Coverage of Game 7 begins on NBC Sports Boston at 7 p.m. ET. Tip-off is set for 8:30 p.m. ET at TD Garden.
