In this Celtics vs Knicks Game 1 breakdown, we analyze a wild NBA Playoffs matchup where Boston shot a brutal 25% from three (15/60), leading to a tough OT loss. Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown combined for 46 points but struggled down the stretch, while Jaylen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns turned up the heat in the second half with elite defense. Kristaps Porziņģis left early due to illness, and Sam Hauser exited after a scary knee injury. The Celtics dominated early with transition buckets and a smart “Hack-a-Robinson” strategy, but offensive cold streaks, late-game defensive lapses, and clutch Knicks rebounding from Josh Hart shifted momentum.
