The Boston Celtics have their backs against the wall. They face the mighty Golden State Warriors in Game 6 of the NBA Finals down 2-3 in the series, and simply put, the Celtics must win on Thursday night.
Al Horford knows that his team is at a disadvantage at this point in the series. However, the Celtics veteran remains steadfast in his confidence in this group:
“We've been in positions of pressure games like this before, obviously never in the Final, to your point,” Horford told reporters, via NBA on Twitter. “But I do believe the way that this team is, there's too much fight… I'm confident with our guys. I'm confident that they'll come out and that we will respond. Obviously, Golden State's a really good team, but we feel good about our group.”
"We will respond. Obviously, Golden State is a really good team but we feel good about our group."

Horford has been around the league for many years now, but this is his first trip to the NBA Finals. There's no denying that he's also feeling the pressure at the moment, but he nevertheless, continues to cling to the fact that the Celtics just have no quit in them.
Stephen Curry and the Warriors are a seemingly unstoppable force, but Boston definitely won't go down without a fight.
