It was evident to anyone watching the Knicks’ two losses to the Celtics this season — on opening night and again Saturday night.
Former Celtics player and current TV analyst Brian Scalabrine piled on during the postgame show following the Knicks’ 131-104 loss Saturday at the Garden.
“If you’re the Knicks, it all comes crashing down,” Scalabrine said. “Like, now you are reminded once again that you are just not at the same level and you have a long ways to go.”
Celtics star Jayson Tatum, who scored a game-high 40 points in the win, said he was motivated to have a big night by the sight of at least one movie star in attendance.
Jayson Tatum dribbles the ball during the game against the New York Knicks on February 8, 2025 at Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York.“I saw Denzel Washington sitting courtside, so I was excited about that. Tried to [put on a show],” Tatum said. “Besides Boston, it’s probably the best place to play. They got all the celebrities, but they also have that edge. They got an edge about them. They know basketball, they’re pᴀssionate, they’re chanting and cheering the whole time. So, it is a special place to play.”
