Superstar Jayson Tatum led the Boston Celtics to a big win over the Brooklyn Nets. Huge, by the way. With 26 three-pointers, the Massachusetts team, playing at home, didn’t give the opponent a chance. In fact, the Celtics were one short of a franchise record. Tatum scored 31 points, grabbed nine rebounds and made seven long-range attempts. Jaylen Brown also converted seven and finished with 26 points. Kyrie Irving instead was the scorer of the Nets, with 20. Brooklyn acted, once again, without Kevin Durant and Ben Simmons, both injured.
The Celtics show started early. In the first six minutes of the game, Boston already led 24 to 4. Then, Tatum made three, leaving him up 27 to 4. Irving answered the same way, but the number 0 jersey was with everything. He hit another one and the home side won 30 to 7. Brown moved up to 33 to 7. Soon after, the difference was 31, after a free throw by Luke Kornet. At the end of the first quarter the score was 46-16.
Already in the second period, the Nets sketched a timid reaction, without however being able to overturn the margin. Before halftime, however, Tatum scored three more and the Celtics led 79–45.

Coming back at halftime, Brown left the Celtics leading 87 to 52. Everything Boston threw was falling, while the Nets had nothing left to do. Tatum salutes the game late in the third period, once again with a long-range field goal. There, the Eastern leaders led 110 to 72.
In the final 12 minutes, with the field full of reserves, Boston controlled only the scoreboard to confirm its 37th triumph of the season.
