It's not a true celebration until the mop bucket is brought into play.
The Cleveland Cavaliers celebrated a third straight NBA Finals appearance Thursday night after eliminating the Boston Celtics in a Game 5 victory in which the score was never even close.
In the opponent's locker room at TD Garden afterward, All-Star Kevin Love got extra rowdy when he grabbed the mop bucket and started dousing his teammates in its water.
