The New York Knicks traded five first-round picks to acquire Mikal Bridges last summer. The deal has paid off with two game-ending defensive plays from Bridges to give the Knicks a shocking 2-0 series lead over the Boston Celtics.

I take full ownership of the way that I’ve played in this series,” Jayson Tatum said Thursday. “I can’t sugarcoat anything. I need to be better.”

Boston was an abysmal 10-of-40 from three-point range as a team, while Tatum went 5-of-19 from the field and 1-of-5 from deep. Jaylen Brown had six turnovers to one assist, while a typically dominant defender in Jrue Holiday committed the late foul on Brunson.
