Celtics sweep Pacers


 

The Boston Celtics erased a multi-possession deficit in the clutch for the third time in four contests to sweep the Indiana Pacers with a 105-102 road win in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals Monday.

Boston will take on the winner of the Dallas Mavericks-Minnesota Timberwolves duel in the NBA Finals. Dallas holds a 3-0 advantage over Minnesota. The series will begin on June 6.

The Pacers were up 98-90 with just under six minutes to play before the Celtics finished the game on a 15-4 run capped by a 3-pointer by Derrick White in the final minute to break a 102-102 tie. Indiana didn't score in the final 3:32 of the contest.
