He&#39;s now recorded 3 such efforts in the last 40 days.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Taylor Snow (@taylorcsnow) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/taylorcsnow\/status\/1394867821318975488?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 19, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>For at least a couple of years, Lakers fans tried to tell us that Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram and Kyle Kuzma were all better than Jayson Tatum. Now they\u2019re tweeting Photoshopped pictures of JT in that horrid yellow and purple uniform. That\u2019s how thirsty they are for the young superstar who they could\u2019ve drafted outright with the second pick in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Tatum took another giant step last night, overwhelming the helpless Wizards from the field and the foul line. What he lacked in efficiency (14 of 32 FGs), he made up for with quantity (5 of 12 threes and 17 of 17 free throws). JT\u2019s scoring by quarters: 6, 12, 23 and 9, helping the Celtics outscore the Wizards 66-46 in the second half. Washington simply couldn\u2019t contain him.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. The 17-2 run<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With 1:46 remaining in the second quarter, the Wizards held a 50-42 lead, but then the game turned. Kemba Walker scored an and-one, Tatum was fouled on a three and made all the FTs, then JT had an and-one on a 15-foot fadeaway. All this contributed to Boston closing the gap to 54-52 at the half.<\/p>\n<p>The Celtics then rode that momentum by opening the third with a 17-2 run, with all the points scored by Tatum (8) and Kemba (9 on a trio of triples). The Celts were up 90-80 entering the fourth and never looked back, leading by as many as 22.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Kemba<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s not overlook what Kemba Walker did last night.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/TermineRadio\/status\/1394856416150802438?s=20<\/p>\n<p>Although Tatum was completely out of the box, he couldn\u2019t do it alone. With Jaylen Brown injured, Kemba delivered a game reminiscent of his years in Charlotte: 29 points, 6 of 14 from the arc, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and a block.<\/p>\n<p>For the Celtics to have any chance in the first round against Brooklyn, Kemba must continue to be Robin to Tatum\u2019s Batman. If he does, all those missed back-to-back nights will have been worth it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. <\/strong><strong>Free throws<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In this space we complain about officiating probably too much, so we now acknowledge that Boston got a better whistle than Washington.<\/p>\n<p>Wizards starting forward Rui Hachimura was a non-factor after getting in foul trouble early. He finished with 5 fouls and 8 points in just 17 minutes. Russell Westbrook also finished with 5 personals on his way to not getting a triple-double (20\/14\/5).<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Washington was called for 31 fouls to Boston\u2019s 17. The Wizards were 17 of 20 at the line while the Celtics were 27 of 32. This helped the Cs overcome a disadvantage in shooting (39.6% from the floor compared to 43.5% for the Wizards).<\/p>\n<p>Other notable stats:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Washington was horrible on threes, making just 3 of 21. The Celtics were 15 of 45.<\/li>\n<li>The Celts scored 20 points off Wizards turnovers. Washington got just 6 points off Boston turnovers.<\/li>\n<li>Second-chance points: Celtics 21, Wizards 11.<\/li>\n<li>Points in the paint: Celtics 38, Wizards 56.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>5. Jaylen<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Jaylen is absolutely itching to play <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4fuIpzdtSJ\">pic.twitter.com\/4fuIpzdtSJ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Taylor Snow (@taylorcsnow) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/taylorcsnow\/status\/1394851360894504961?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 19, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Feeling bad for this guy.
