Warriors vs. Celtics live score, updates, highlights from Game 4 of NBA Finals

They may not be on the brink of elimination just yet, but Stephen Curry and the Warriors are treating Game 4 as a “must-win” situation.

After a Game 3 loss to the Celtics, Curry told reporters that the Warriors still feel like they can win the series, but they must bring the “right intensity and focus” into Friday night’s contest. Curry has been spectacular throughout the NBA Finals, but he will need plenty of help from his supporting cast, especially now that Curry is dealing with a foot injury.

The Celtics shouldn’t have any issues matching the Warriors’ level of intensity at the start of Game 4 with an electric TD Garden crowd cheering for them. The key will be maintaining it, as the Celtics have struggled to keep up with the Warriors in third quarters.

Will the Celtics take a commanding 3-1 lead? Or will the Warriors bounce back and steal one on the road?
