Ortiz made his way to TD Garden for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals between the Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers. Ahead of the matchup in which many believe LeBron James will unleash a heroic performance, Big Papi tried to help out the Celtics by sending a message to The King. “LeBron, we’re coming to get you,” Ortiz said on his Instagram story prior to tip-off. “We’re coming to get you. You know how we do it.” James evidently wasn’t fazed by Ortiz’s warning, as the star forward dropped 21 (!) first-quarter points on 8-of-13 shooting, including 4-for-7 from beyond the arc.
