The Boston Celtics are trying to bestow a healthy dose of karmic justice upon their hated Eastern Conference enemies.

According to Nathan Long of CSN New England, the Celtics have arrived at Verizon Center for Friday’s potential closeout Game 6 against the Washington Wizards wearing all black.

The Celtics currently hold a 3-2 in the second-round playoff series, and this is clearly their way of getting back at the Wizards, who pulled the exact same shenanigans on them during a regular season contest back in January (a game that Washington won by 15). The stakes will be much higher this time around, so the recurrence of the funeral attire theme should only add to the intensity and the animosity as the two rivals go at it again on Friday.
