Jayson Tatum on Celtics sweeping Heat in season series: ‘Headed in RIGHT direction’ | NBA on ESPN

A big night for Kristof porzingis his fourth straight game with at least 25 points ties a career-long streak a huge nighte for Jason Tatum as well finishes one assist shy of a triple double conversation with b anabo and Jason is with cley Jason um this certainly had the intensity of a typical

Heat Celtics matchup well ultimately was the difference to hold off their Furious comeback uh I mean that’s a really good team right well coach they play hard we got a lot of history there and uh you know last time we came here we beat him

By a lot so we knew that they’re a powerful team it was going to be tough um it was just answering their runs they’re a good team you know it’s the NBA they’re going to go on runs you just got to withstand it and and answer it

And you were one assist shy from a triple double but the team was nine of 17 off of your passes just how do you describe the collective effort in this win yeah uh it’s just all about making the right reads right uh they’re not really going to let you play one onone

They’re going to show a crowd send some double so it’s all about sometimes being a decoy um and drawing the extra man and making the right pass and when you guys are at the top it becomes snip kicking and one of the areas of nitpicking has been clutch Time games you guys improve

To 18 and8 in clutch Time games you sweep the season series over the heat what did this game tell you about where you guys are at in terms of adversity at this point in the season uh you know we better than we were last year at this

Point uh and we still got a long way to go right it’s a week into the allstar break and then it really kicks up after that so uh you know we’re playing good basketball but we still got some ways to go but you know I think we’re on the

Right direction uh or just you know playing better and better as the playoffs you know start to come around you know that’s when you want to play your best basketball but you know we’re showing Great Signs but still some things we can work on Super Bowl

Pick I don’t know it’s tough it’s tough to go against the Chiefs I just wanted it to be a good game so you know we’ll see well go out and enjoy it and thanks for the time back to you Ryan all right Cass on Super Sunday Jason Tatum Jaylen Brown of the
