Boston Celtics SELF-DESTRUCT vs Knicks in GAME 1

The Boston Celtics just BLEW a 20-point lead at home against the New York Knicks in Game 1, and I'm asking: Are they about to BUST? Like a blackjack player on a hot streak, the Celtics' luck with their insane three-point volume (SIXTY attempts?!) is bound to run out.

In this rant, I break down why this loss is UNACCEPTABLE for a team with this much talent. We discuss:

* The ridiculous reliance on the three-point shot, especially when they're cold.
* Blowing a massive lead at home in the postseason.
* That questionable final possession - should Tatum have gotten the ball over Brown?
* Coach Mazzulla's seemingly nonchalant reaction to the poor shot selection.
* Why the Celtics are still the most talented team BUT are their own worst enemy.
* My demand for Game 2: BLOW THE DOORS OFF THE KNICKS!

The Celtics SHOULD be coasting to the NBA Finals, but if they keep playing like this, shooting themselves out of games with bad threes, they're heading for an early exit. This team has championship expectations, and anything less is a failure. They need to stop messing around NOW.

What do you think? Are the Celtics in trouble? Can they fix their shot selection? Let me know in the comments below!
