    The Boston Celtics are one win away from a record-setting 18th NBA championship

    The Boston Celtics are one win away from a record-setting 18th NBA championship


    Their game three Finals win over the Mavericks in Dallas gives them a 3-nil series lead.

    The odds are well in Boston's favour - teams are 156 and 0 all-time when winning the first 3 games in a best-of-seven series.

    The pair of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have become the first Celtics duo to both record at least 30 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in a Finals game.
