How Jayson Tatum’s Unexpected Move Silenced Madison Square Garden and Revived the Celtics

Here’s a curious thing about the Celtics’ latest Game 3 victory in New York — they pulled off a convincing 115-93 win despite some seriously shaky shooting from their stars. Jayson Tatum sputtered at just 40% from the floor, Jaylen Brown couldn’t break 40%, and Kristaps Porzingis was ice cold, going 0-for-3. Yet somehow, the rest of the squad picked up the slack with near 60% shooting, draining threes like a team possessed. It begs the question: In a game where your marquee players don’t find their rhythm, can a deep, unselfish team effort be the key to turning the tide? The buzz on Twitter is buzzing loud about this resilient Celtics squad, and with the series still tight at 2-1, Monday’s Game 4 at MSG promises more fireworks.
