"You're frustrated any time you don't go out there and get a win," said Pierce, who finished with 13 points. "They had a late three-point barrage that opened up the game and our offence wasn't there for us in the fourth quarter."

Pierce explained the importance of winning game six at home, where the Celtics are 41-6 this season, including 6-0 in the playoffs.

"If you go down 3-2, you have to go back on the road, where it hasn't been friendly to us," he said. "So, we have to take care of business at home, so we can come back in game six and get a win."
