BOSTON – In Game 2 against the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday night, the Boston Celtics once again showed off their versatility. Defensively, this meant holding the Hawks to just 106 points with a beautiful mix of interior dominance and forcing turnovers. Offensively, it was their ability to mix in three-point shooting with a forceful paint attack.
But as a whole, it was about their depth.
Jayson Tatum still led the team in scoring, and Robert Williams still provided an emphatic block, but the entire team stepped up and overwhelmed Atlanta as a group.
