Boston is expecting a "severe injury."Things went from bad to worse in Game 4 of the Boston Celtics' second-round series against the New York Knicks when Jayson Tatum went down with a non-contact injury. Tatum went to the ground holding his right ankle after an OG Anunoby steal towards the end of the fourth quarter of Monday's matchup. What had been a dominant performance changed in an instant.

"Bigger than basketball."With 2:39 remaining in Saturday's third quarter, the Madison Square Garden scoreboard read, "Boston Celtics 92, New York Knicks 63."

The 29-point gap between the two sides was a lot, but it wasn't enough to keep Celtics Head Coach Joe Mazzulla from instructing his team to intentionally foul Knicks center Mitchell Robinson.

"That's the easy thing to look at."There was not a single second of Saturday's Game 3 when the Boston Celtics trailed the New York Knicks. Boston went down to Madison Square Garden, dominated, and won their first game of the series in wire-to-wire fashion. After letting two 20-point leads slip away in as many games to start the series, the Celtics kept the Knicks at that same distance, or larger, for the entire second half.

Get out of the way!It's no secret that the Boston Celtics have had a hard time putting the ball in the basket through two games against the New York Knicks. They have been the least efficient of the eight remaining teams by far, shooting just 35.6 percent from the field and 25.0 percent from deep. For perspective, the Denver Nuggets have been seventh-worst with 41.2/36.2 shooting splits. That's quite the difference.
