Boston has only done that six times in the past ten years.

Playing without Jaylen Brown, who is sidelined with a hamstring injury, Jayson Tatum was on the mend, scoring 29 points with 10 rebounds, but he also had six of the team’s 23 transfers.

Boston went 8-0 to bounce back from a 21-point deficit to draw within five with just 3:59 left in regulation, but in the end it was their first leg that cost them the whole game. fight. They got a point in the final ten seconds of the game that allowed Los Angeles to hold out.

“We didn’t do ourselves any favors by just giving them points,” Boston coach Ime Udoka said.

Boston gave up 33 points in views. Facing a Clippers team playing without Paul George, the Celtics dropped 63 points in the first half – allowing the Clippers to shoot 55% from the floor, and drop 30 points inside the paint.

“Effort and inconsistency sometimes frustrate you” Udoka said.

The Clippers have a career match from Brandon Boston Jr, who finished with 27 points, four steals and five 3-pointers.

The Celtics are now just 1-3 on the trip to Phoenix, followed by home games against Milwaukee and Golden State. If the Celtics repeat their performance from tonight, it could get really bad over the next three games.
