Boston Celtics blow out Miami Heat in Game 1 behind Jayson Tatum triple double
Listen now
Description
The Celtics came out strong, went on a big run, and kept it rolling for basically the entire game (minus an early fourth quarter lull) to win a wire-to-wire blowout over the Heat in Game 1 of their opening round series. Jayson Tatum's triple-double was a big part of Boston taking advantage of everything the Heat threw at them. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal gets into all of that, how the defense and rebound played a massive part in the blowout, and why the amount of 3-pointers they took was just fine. Also, was the Caleb Martin play on Tatum dirty, bad luck and timing, or a little of both?
