While it once looked like the Western Conference Finals and Eastern Conference Finals would both end in sweeps, the Boston Celtics have won three-straight games against the Miami Heat to force a Game 7 after trailing 3-0. With the Denver Nuggets taking care of the Los Angeles Lakers in four games, they shared a hilarious reaction on Twitter to the Eastern Conference Finals extending even further:

The Nuggets swept the Lakers in the Western Conference Semi-Finals, punching their ticket to the NBA Finals where they will face the winner of this Heat vs. Celtics series. A Finals date with the Heat was looking inevitable for Denver, but the possibility of Boston advancing has now become more real than ever.

No team in NBA history has ever overcome a 3-0 deficit, but the Celtics are now one win on their home floor from being the first to do it. While Boston has been fighting to tie this series, the Nuggets have been resting and preparing for whoever their opponent ends up being. Their reaction to that was hilariously summed up on Twitter with a picture of Bruce Brown sitting court-side.

Game 7 between the Celtics and Heat will be played on Monday night, and Denver will finally be able to find out who their NBA Finals opponent is when that game ends.
