Boston Celtics Rumors
ClutchPoints: “I wanted to play Miami in a sense that, last year playing against Atlanta we might’ve relaxed a little bit.” Celtics star Jayson Tatum discusses their playoff series win over the Heat 🗣 (via @danield1214) pic.twitter.com/fbXYG0wVgd
Jared Weiss: Jaylen Brown: “Obviously, last year, I probably had one of my worst series in the playoffs just in general and that has just carried on from there. Facing them in the first round this year, I still feel like I could have played a lot better and a lot more relaxed. Maybe put a little bit more attention on myself than I needed to. But still came out and was able to find ways to be aggressive and help my team win. Mashallah is full circle. Now we’re just looking forward to the next.”
Bobby Manning: White on Cavs/Magic: “They’re both good.”
