The Indiana Pacers were not long for the 2019 NBA playoffs.
It only took four games for the Boston Celtics to dispatch the Pacers in their first-round series. Indiana looked as though it might live to see another day Sunday afternoon, but Boston flexed its muscles down the stretch to pick up a Game 4 win and a series sweep.
And as the Celtics began to pull away late in the fourth quarter, Jaylen Brown took it upon himself to do a little spring cleaning.
Who's ready for Round 2?

Yeah, we’re not sure if Brown has ever actually used a broom before.
The Celtics now will enjoy a bit of a break as they await their second-round opponent. Barring miraculous comebacks by the Brooklyn Nets and/or Orlando Magic, Boston is bound for a date with Giannis Antetokounmpo and the top-seeded Milwaukee Bucks.
