BOSTON (97.1 The Ticket) -- A college in Boston is asking the Portland Trail Blazers to "take it easy" on their hometown Celtics on Wednesday night after a group of about eight Blazers players were stuck inside an elevator at an Emerson Collehge practice facility for about 30 minutes Tuesday.
No one was injured in the incident, but the Blazers tweeted a compilation of videos recorded by Enes Kanter and Meyers Leonard.

February 26, 2019 It would be pretty rough to be stuck in an elevator with "a bunch of really tall guys."
Though Kanter seemed to be all laughs, veteran Evan Turner seemed to be pretty fed up with the situation.
"This is how you treat a former No. 1 team in the West?" Turner asked in the video.
The players finally got out of the elevator, which was stuck between the ground floor and the second level, and were greeted by a group of bystanders.
"The College apologizes for the disruption and hopes the team takes it easy on the Boston Celtics tomorrow night," Emerson officials said in a statement.
