The Celtics finished the game 15-of-60 from three-point range, and their 45 misses broke the previous record. The Minnesota Timberwolves set the mark earlier this postseason by missing 40 three-point attempts against the Los Angeles Lakers. Boston blew that away.

The Celtics opened the Eastern Conference semifinals with a stunning defeat, blowing a 20-point second-half in an overtime loss to the Knicks.

Consecutive 3-pointers by Brunson gave the Knicks a 97-91 lead with 3:27 left, their first since early in the second quarter. The Celtics responded with a 7-0 burst, but those good vibes proved to be fleeting. Tatum missed three 3-pointers and a 20-footer over the final 100 seconds of regulation.
