HISTORY: Celtics' Anfernee Simons RESCUES Boston in Miami—Why Jayson Tatum Needs to Pay Attention

Описание: Boston Celtics rally past Miami Heat as Anfernee Simons makes history off the bench—should Jayson Tatum take notes on late-game decision making? John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal breaks down the Celtics’ wild 119-114 comeback, spotlighting Anfernee Simons’ record-setting 39 points and the clutch fourth-quarter adjustments that saved Boston after a disastrous start. Key discussions include Jaylen Brown’s bounce-back third quarter, Derrick White’s defensive impact despite a cold shooting night, and how Joe Mazzulla’s rotation choices shaped the rally. The episode also explores the bench’s critical second-chance points, Payton Pritchard’s struggles, and why Tatum’s willingness to let hot teammates cook could be pivotal for Boston’s championship hopes. Is Simons too valuable to move at the trade deadline? Can the Celtics sustain this new offensive rhythm as they chase the No. 1 seed? Don’t miss Karalis’s expert insights into Boston’s evolving identity and what this showdown reveals about the season ahead.
