The Washington Wizards knotted up their best-of-seven set against the Boston Celtics at two games apiece with Sunday’s 121-102 victory. And while a series deadlock isn’t typically time for bravado, John Wall was feeling himself, and his team, afterward. As the All-Star point guard said, per SI.com’s Ben Golliver: [tweet https://twitter.com/BenGolliver/status/861395735350091776] There’s nothing actually wrong with [...]

That pain didn’t stop him from turning in perhaps his best performance of the postseason.
