Pga Tour Takes Dig At Celtics After Loss Against Knicks
Last night at TD Garden, the New York Knicks overcame a 20-point deficit to beat the Boston Celtics 91-90, fueled by Mikal Bridges’ 14 fourth-quarter points, Jalen Brunson’s 17 and a game-sealing steal.
The PGA Tour mocked their fourth-quarter collapse, posting a clip of Masters Champion Rory McIlroy on X(formerly Twitter), sitting a few feet from a standard waste basket, perfectly tossing a paper ball into it and celebrating with a fist pump.
They captioned it, "What the Celtics needed in the 4th quarter last night," trolling the Greens. The team converted just 5-for-24 shots, only shooting 21% in the fourth quarter.

"Two games we're up 20 points somehow end up not with wins is inexcusable," Jaylen Brown said. "Obviously being down two, it sucks."
Head coach Joe Mazulla believes that they can tie the series back up again.
"They made every play. ... I thought we generated some good looks and then I thought we had some live-ball turnovers and they took advantage of it, so they made the necessary plays to win," said Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla. "We put ourselves in position and we just didn't make the plays."

"What's done is done," he said. "We've got to make sure we're ready to come out for Game 3. I think we're due for a lot of makes. I think we had a lot of great shots tonight that didn't go in. We've just got to relax, take a deep breath and play Celtics basketball. Just like we're down 0-2, we can tie this thing back up." He added.
