You can’t hammer home over and over again how much more talented the Celtics are than Miami and then pin this on the Tatum injury. No question it affected him in a big way, but you just can’t do it… – 10:34 PM

See what the Heat are doing with Jayson Tatum? Picking on him in pick-and-roll situations every play? That’s what the Knicks should have done to Jimmy Butler when he played on a bad ankle in Game 1. Coaching matters. – 10:33 PM
