What could happen to the Boston Celtics if they lose Game 7 vs. the Philadelphia 76ers (and how can they prevent it)? The Celtics frittered away a 3-1 series lead against the Sixers by reverting to old habits in the face of a determined Philly squad, reacting poorly to the physicality of postseason defense and devolving into ISO ball too often.

Throw in the ice-cold shooting nights from key players and going away from playing the depth and using the accountability that powered their regular season success, and you have a recipe for disaster. Is there a way for the Celtics to win Game 7 -- and what might happen to the team if they do not? The hosts of "Havlicek Stole the Pod" took some time on a recent episode of their show to discuss these concerns with Celtics Blog reporter Gio Rivera.

Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what they had to say about a truly decisive Game 7 for Boston, as well as what the future might hold. Listen to "Havlicek Stole the Pod" on: Blue Wire: https://tiny. ee/CdKp iTunes: https://tiny.
