The Celtics didn't look great in Golden State. In fact, they look a lot like they did at the end of the Finals, but Jaylen Brown admitted that they played tense and like they had this game circled for a long time. Jayson Tatum had maybe his worst game of the season, but John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal thinks they tried TOO hard, and fell into some bad habits that cost them (except for Brown, who was awesome). Also, Joe Mazzulla's insistence on playing Blake Griffin and their drop coverage was a problem.
