Jayson Tatum

The TD Garden's Opening Night Fireworks The Boston Celtics defeated the New York Knicks 132-109 at home to begin the 2024–25 NBA season in championship fashion. With a packed TD Garden, a ring ceremony, and a banner raising, the evening began with a celebration, but Boston made it apparent they were already concentrating on a new run of titles.


 —> Celtics  Set the Tone Early on Boston finished the first quarter with an amazing 43–24 lead. From the opening gate, their ball movement, defensive pressure, and superb shooting overwhelmed New York. 


Important First Quarter Report: 

7 three-pointers landed. 

Tatum: 13 points only in Q1. 

63% team field shooting from the ground 


Old Shooting Night Boston completed the game shooting 47.5% from beyond the arc and tied an NBA record with 29 three-pointers. Their offense was sharp, erratic, and nonscriptive. 


Great Performers: 

Jayson Tatum: 37 points, ten ast, six rebounds.

Derrick White 24 points, 5 threes 

Jaylen Brown is 23 points and three stls.


The Knicks are already behind. 
Boston's pace was too quick for New York. Although Jalen Brunson scored 22 points, the team's offensive rhythm was lacking, and they gave up too many open looks from beyond the arc. It was difficult for RJ Barrett and Julius Randle to produce against Boston's defense. 

Knicks team statistics: 
14 infractions 29.7% out of 3 70–48 in the first half 

What This Will Mean Going Ahead Concerning the Celtics: 
The spirit of a championship is still present. 
Both their starters and their bench performed admirably. 
The system of Joe Mazzulla is operating ahead of schedule. 

Concerning the Knicks: 
There must be significant advancements in perimeter defense. 
Thibodeau will require more inside-out offensive movement and quicker rotations. 
Though it's early, there is a clear separation
between New York and the title contenders.

Boston made an impact in addition to winning. 
The Celtics are proving they are prepared to defend the title with their depth, chemistry, and star power. 

The Knicks have a lot of work ahead of them, but they have time to adapt because the season is long.
