Celtics down 2-0 vs. Knicks, say they 'have to win' Game 3 on Saturday

  • The Boston Celtics trail the New York Knicks 2-0 in their second-round NBA playoff series as Game 3 approaches on Saturday at Madison Square Garden.
  • The Celtics lost after leading by 20 points in both home games, partly due to poor fourth-quarter offense and shooting, including a 25 percent three-point rate in the series.
  • Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla stressed the need to win Game 3, while key player Jayson Tatum acknowledged full responsibility for his subpar play and pledged to improve.
  • No team in NBA history has come back from a 3-0 series hole to secure a victory, meaning the Celtics would have to mount the largest comeback ever recorded in the league if they lose again this weekend.
  • The Knicks aim to reach the Eastern Conference finals for the first time in a quarter-century amid soaring ticket demand, while the Celtics face a daunting challenge as they attempt to defend their championship.
