The Boston Celtics were able to get a win at home on Friday night in Game 3 of their first round playoff matchup against the Atlanta Hawks, bringing the series to 2-1 with the advantage going to the Hawks.

The team was led by Isaiah Thomas‘ 42 point game, but he was not to be outdone. Marcus Smart tried to do his part by drawing a foul on this play under the hoop. Unfortunately, he may have been trying a bit too hard.
