Celtics stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown didn't really have an explanation for why the shots weren't falling, but they did acknowledge the team could have been more aggressive in attacking the basket.

There were hopes for Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown after he sustained a knee injury before starting the Eastern Conference semifinals against the New York Knicks. However, Boston sports journalist Bill Simmons raised concerns about Brown’s status after a brutal Game 1 loss.

The Celtics missed an NBA playoff record 45 3-pointers in the 108-105 overtime loss in Game 1 of their playoff series, blowing a 20-point lead. Speaking to reporters after the game, Brown warned that as the top seed in the Eastern Conference, the Celtics need to work harder to generate opportunities on offense rather than just launching 3-pointers.
