With one of their better late performances as a team, the Boston Celtics put away the Toronto Raptors in the fourth quarter even though star forward Jayson Tatum was having another rough-shooting night and teammate Jaylen Brown wasn’t exactly playing his best basketball.
Where previously they’d fallen apart in recent games, Tatum’s team-first play got results with connected offense and trust in the role players to do their part in carrying the load. While there are still plenty of issues to work out for Boston on both ends of the court, reserve shooting guard Josh Richardson preached patience to the press after the win.
“It’s not going to happen overnight, or in the first couple of weeks of the season,” explained Richardson. “It’s a tough game.”
