The NBA offseason has yet to begin, but one aspect of it is already taking shape. Jaylen Brown is going to be at the center of another summer in Celtics land.
It was a fitting end for a frustrating team. Now, with the wound still fresh and Miami jetting off to Denver on their pre-planned flight, how would you define this season that was by the Boston Celtics?
Jayson Tatum showed last night why he is, humbly, one of the best basketball players on the planet as he helped the Celtics stave off elimination with 33 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists, with the bulk of the damage coming in the second half.
Teams trailing 0-3 are 0-149 all-time in NBA history. 91 series finished in four games, 44 finished in five, 11 finished in six and three finished in seven.
