Unless we witness an unprecedented rally in sports history, the Boston Celtics appear set to relinquish their NBA title, trailing the New York Knicks by 35 points at the start of the final quarter in Game 6.
The slim hopes that Joe Mazzulla’s squad clung to following a surprising victory in Game 5—despite the loss of Jayson Tatum due to an injury—were swiftly dashed at Madison Square Garden, much to the delight of the home crowd.
With Tatum out, Jaylen Brown was burdened with increased responsibilities, but his night ended prematurely as he was fouled out with 2:50 remaining in the third quarter. His exit only served to further energize the Knicks’ fans.
In a replay, it can be seen that as Brown makes his way to the bench, potentially for the last time this season, he is inadvertently hit in the head by the basketball. When misfortune strikes, it often comes in waves.
