The Boston Celtics are in deep trouble, as they trail the Miami Heat 3-0 in the Eastern Conference Finals following a 128-102 loss in Game 3 on Sunday.

The Celtics are now on the verge of getting eliminated on Tuesday night. If that happens, the Heat will pull off one of the biggest upsets in NBA history, as they had come into the playoffs as the eighth seeds.

Meanwhile, much like their Eastern Conference foes, the LA Lakers are also down 3-0 against the Denver Nuggets. While the Lakers are hopeful of becoming the first team in league history to recover rom a 3-0 lead, not many think they will do so.

The same goes for the Boston Celtics. Fans are confident that the Heat will advance as they made fun of the Celtics after a humiliating loss.

@cquiller1 tweeted: "Yeah, true superstars don’t have only 14 points in a Must Win game."
@carlosgil83 tweeted: "Hey, remember when the Miami Heat stumbled in the play-in tournament? They were this close to elimination. Yet here they stand, just one win away from the #NBAFinals. Lesson learned: never underestimate the underdogs. Dreams do come true!"

Boston Celtics on brink of embarassing exit

The Boston Celtics haven't played like the second seeded team against Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Boston is likely to get swept by Miami if they don't play their cards right. Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum were nowhere to be found in Game 3. It's no wonder the Celtics ended up losing on Sunday night.

Boston's two stars had lackluster performances in Game 3. Brown only added 12 points and six rebounds, while Tatum put up 14 points and 10 rebounds. While JT notchded up a double-double, it didn't impact the Celtics in any way.

They will need a much improved performance in Game 4 to avert the ignominy of a series sweep.
