The Boston Celtics recently went down 3-0 to the Miami Heat losing 102-128 in Game 3, and there’s no doubt that this was a disappointing result for them. Though they have more talent than the Heat overall, with two All-NBA wings in Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, they clearly didn’t have the discipline to close out a veteran Heat team that can punish inconsistencies.
This was not a good closeout game for Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. Tatum shot 6-18 for 14 points, while Brown shot 6-17 for 12 points. A lot of fans took to Twitter to react to their performance, with one fan stating that they looked “petrified” in a must-win game.
Both look petrified of the moment

There were some accounts that directed blame at Joe Mazzulla rather than the star duo.

This could be a franchise-changing loss for the Boston Celtics, and there’s no doubt that they need to make changes to become a championship-level team. Whether that is coaching or trading one of their stars, something has to happen.
Though there is a chance Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown could lead a comeback from 3-0 down, that seems almost impossible, as teams have never been able to do that. However, there’s a first time for everything, and we’ll see what happens in the future.
